I was very favourably impressed with this inexpensive pipe. I must admit that, in my skinflint way, I bought it with the idea of smoking my cigar stubs. In this office it performed beautifully, although Ive yet to try it with proper tobacco. It draws easily and smokes straight through without re-lighting. In my previous flirtation, twenty years ago, with considerably more expensive pipes, I found the bowl became too hot to hold. The bowl of this pipe assumes only a comforting warmth. A great little pipe at the price.
