New Pipes Smoker
 

I am a new pipe smoker and have been getting tips from Christos (greekgodx) It started this past Saturday going to my B&M and asking the guy about the ones he had there. He handed me a corn cob and some tobacco to try and just ask me to donate to the troops which I was more than happy to do. Today while I was at my aunt and uncle's house I was talking to my uncle about me starting to smoke pipes and he told me he used to and still had quite a few pipes. We went downstairs and picked a box up and opened it up as he was going through he was saying this is a good one and said "here" and gave it to me after 10 mins and 3 more pipes I was happy as a man could be with a new hobby. Here are the pictures of the pipes he gave me. From top to bottom:

Estella
English Gold
The Briar Workshop
Savinelli

I've heard of Savinelli but never heard of any other ones. Thanks for looking

Cool uncle. Great looking pipes, let us know how they smoke.

Re: New Pipes Smoker
 

That savinelli looks damn nice.

Re: New Pipes Smoker
 

Will do!!

Re: New Pipes Smoker
 

After doing some research I found that the Estella is a Savinelli. Like I said I am new to this pipe thing and am pretty excited about getting started!!

Re: New Pipes Smoker
 

Very nice!! hopefully he will be able to get you that meerschaum. I will have to check those out. Did he smoke them often?

Re: New Pipes Smoker
 

I don't think so but I do think its been awhile since he last smoked them

Re: New Pipes Smoker
 

We'll talk more about it in person, but the reason I ask is because there is a "break-in" period for pipes. So if he already built up a pretty good cake on those pipes and they are broken in good then you might be a very lucky newbie piper :tu
