Vintage pipes.

[Wchnu]

I am curious as to thoughts on vintage pipes. It does not freak me out to buy and use a pipe that someone smoked before. I clean them good and keep on.  This meerschaum is an example. It was obviously  favorite of someone in the past. It is going to be among my favorites.

Agree comletely - they did the work breaking in the bowl.  You reap the benefits.  That sure is a pretty pipe and just the right size.  A lot or Meerschaum is way too big or fancy.  I was a premium cigar smoker for years until I gave up the beautiful brown leaf.  Fuente 858 was one of my favorites.

Love a Fuente. But not paying for them. Lol
