A quarter of the way through this bowl of Smoker’s Pride Mellow Taste in the very first pipe I ever bought ($2.49) in 1974; a smooth three quarter bend Dr. Grabow Omega military mount with a nickel band and a black vulcanite stem with a p-lip. Getting ready to do some walking now.
Now smoking 5 Brothers in a MM cob. Getting ready for the lunch hour.

About a quarter of a bowl left of Sutliff Prince Albert Match in a 1980s straight smooth Big Ben pot with a nickel band and a black vulcanite saddle stem.
What maker of that IPA and brand of Burly pairing where you going for there?
Smoking a home VaPer mix in a Castello KK sea rock billiard.
How do you like that Volkan? I love the look of their Bullcaps.
I know you didn’t ask me but I have 2 and they are some of the best pipes for the price I’ve ever bought. ?
This is the only Volkan I have, but if the rest of their lineup is as good, they make a fine pipe. I use it for aromatics solely (mostly the Wilke Cherry Cavendish, as it's not a sodden mess, and has a pleasantly light cherry flavor). The seller on eBay seems to have mostly stopped doing this, but at one time he put a number of pipes up for auction instead of "buy it now", and I got this particular one for around $40 USD. If you see something to your liking, I wouldn't have any hesitation to recommend them. I've been told that their upper range of better grained pipes is very good, but haven't seen one in the flesh.
There you go, @petes03 - two recommendations in a row! Mine smokes well, and looks good (it has a particularly handsome tapered bit).
C & D Star of the East in a Peterson 80s.
KBV Instant Crush in a Ashton XXX brindle pot.
Chacom No. 4 Virginia / Perique Flake in a small, black sandblasted prince.
Enjoyed a tasty lunch, and am a quarter of the way through this bowl of year 2014 HU Directors Cut in a smooth straight Lane era Charatan Executive Extra Large stretch apple with diagonal channel cuts on the lower right and left of the bowl along with a black vulcanite double comfort saddle stem. This pipe was formerly owned by actor William Conrad. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
Peterson's Flake in a Peterson's Ashford. A cup of tea, reading a New Testament Bible Commentary, with Gregorian chant playing in the background.
Some Maltese Falcon. This crazy dog can’t decide whether he wants in or out!
that's when I bought mine too. some you can still get for around 50-60 bucks.
I got two sandblasts for under 100.
