I currently have two briar pipes, one bent and one poker. My bent pipe is just a single step above a drugstore pipe. It was made in Italy, and it works fine. I'm pretty sure I bought it because I liked the color of the finish.
My poker was an estate pipe purchased on ebay, seen here, and it is an excellent pipe. I also have a corn cob pipe I love to use when out on the kayak or wandering somewhere less than hospitable to polished briar.
I'm hoping to buy a nice, new pipe. Does anyone have a recommendation for a 40-70 dollar, high quality, go-to pipe? I'm not picky on shape or finish. Something available through Iwan Ries would be great. IRC sent me two complimentary tobaccos to try...I didn't even have to pay shipping! Thus, if possible, I'd like to spend some money on the IRC website.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
