I would probably grab my Stanwell Majestic 186 this week... but no telling if it would be the same pipe next week!

It'd be all of them since I'm uncool and store them in a tall toolbox. But in the end, I'd be cool since I'd still have my pipes, but no house...

I would have to say I would grab my Nording Giant. My favorite would already be in my mouth or my shirt pocket.

My one and only Dunhill Shell Quaint. That pipe always always always smokes well, never heats up, never gurgles and feels very very comfortable either clenched in between my teeth or held in my hand. I'm no Dunhill snob, but that pipe is perfect in every way...has been since the first time I smoked it.

I found a picture of one just like mine in shape. It's a 1997 Dunhill Freehand DR2 in a group 5. Mine is locked up in my gun safe. The value has gone up so much I seldom get it out.

Very nice shape. How heavy is that handsome piece of briar? There are definately pipes out there that I adore but would never own because they are too heavy. I just have to be able to clench a pipe to love it. Please say it weighs no more than 38 to 40 g. I am referring to the Dunhill.

That Heding is INSANE!!! Perfect shaping, effortless organic lines, sick grain and a mind blowing stain and polish job. That's just sick. That's a truly timeless piece of smokeable art Buddy. I had to pour a glass of scotch after looking at that picture just so I could feel proper about saying cheers to your pipe.
Cheers.

LOL---If I remember correctly it comes in at 2 Ounces if I remember correctly or 59G? I worked for an internet pipe dealer in the 90's called R&E Pipes. I was the webmaster for them. I took pipes rather than money for pay:) I loved that arrangement since it allowed me to get pipes I could never afford to purchase outright. Dunhill, a couple of S. Bangs, Former, Matzhold etc. This shape and another with a rough finish on the top of the bowl.

Some were out of the question such as the Space Shuttle special edition Dunhill. They just had to much invested in that one!

Crap that is a hard decision. Out of all my pipes though and this might sound a bit crazy, but I would grab an old Kings Cross bulldog pipe I have. It was my Grandpa's first pipe that he smoked all the time and it smokes great. Even though its pretty much worthless and beat up it holds a lot of sentimental value with me.

My collection of 15 pipes is kept safely at my office. As such, should my house catch fire, I'd wait for the Fire-Rescue trucks to salvage what they could and then ease on back to work to calm my nerves with a bowl of Nat Sherman.

You know that is a good question considering I have 49 plus that I consider all my favorites, some I inherited from my Father and are of sentimental value, but my first pipe I bought while in Germany was a Silvano Dongo which to this day is my favorite smoke, so I guess it would be the Dongo or up in flames, hopefully I can get a light before I go, one last good puff.....
