I've been looking for a nice estate or even a new Brebbia Fat Bob pipe and have not had much luck thus far. Years ago, used to see them on SP and other sites. Where did this style go?
I always hesitate to say, "I didn't say that," because Chasingembers very well could dig up my old statement and prove me wrong, ha ha. But, I should rather say that I don't find it cumbersome to "hold," just cumbersome in general, despite what words I may have used in the past. But, I do love the chamber size. Mine is a tad over 1" wide. I also had a custom bulldog made that has the same bowl dimensions. It's a honkin' hunk of briar, h aha. but, I think everyone who loves exploring the differences in pipe sizes and designs should try one. I am not sure whether I just don't smoke it often because of cumbersomeness or that I just don't smoke blends that I enjoy in larger pipes that often. Regardless, it is a drawer pipe, but I do love having it handy if I ever do get the urge to smoke a Burley Flake or a GH rope. For me it makes a very strong blend more like a cigar with a large ring gauge; it just sort of takes the edges off for me.. I then thought about something Cosmic stated in a thread. He found that despite liking the, the shape wasnt that comfortable to hold.
