Embers I expected that out of you!
But there was no plural in the question!
Pipe. Singular! Haha
Sable gets a pass, however you Embers....I don't think so.

Duane will be remembered for that Bruce Weaver saddle stemmed billiard that he claims he'll never smoke but will probably one day finally smoke, probably many years in the future... on Christmas :mrgreen:

Jesse will be remembered for that gorgeous Barling by members here, but I bet he doesn't smoke it often— if ever!
And, yes, the question was - is- in the singular. I can't pick out any single pipe so far.

The one I recently sold for $3800. It cost me a whopping $140, so I made a tidy profit for my estate.

A while back some one posted an ebay listing of a genuine asbestos pipe. Yep, I bought it lol! Now, of course I will never smoke it and have it sealed up, but I can only imagine the family going through my pipes and wondering "what the hell was dad thinking smoking this!"

Chilly if you aren't going to post a picture, at least describe the pipe!
And if you don't own it, how will people remember it?

But, but, that blend isn't St Bruno!

Ah, you got me! That blend (think it was Ye Olde Signe?) was only a prop for the photo. I tossed it in the bin and stuffed that pipe full of St. Bruno of course. :wink:

My kids will probably remember me most by my most colourful pipe, which is this one here. They love taking it out and blowing into it (with the pipe empty of course).

Like many, I would hope I will be remembered for other things than my pipes.
However, I guess if my grandkids would associate any given pipe with me, it would be Savinelli in a 645 shape. I have several and always seem to revert back to them. I carry them in my pocket, I carry them in my pipe travel case and only on occasion, will I grab a different pipe. Most likely my Peterson Flame Grain Bent Billiard or any of my Peterson rhodesians.

Many of the other pipes on the shelf just don't seem to get used much. To the point where I'm starting to question myself whether I should sell them off and let others enjoy them.... it may happen...maybe... one day... probably not :rofl:
