I remember asking for advice on my first pipe purchase on BoB and was not lead astray. I settled on a Peterson Aran #80 not the most expensive pipe in the world but as a first it has been faultless. Has a nice cake going now and I get a nice smoke from it.
I have recently found a great pipe tobacco supplier and have been sampling Perique blends, Latakia blends. Some of you will shudder in horror no doubt when I say I'm using the same pipe to smoke all my blends in.
So to the point of this post. What to buy as my second pipe? I would prefer a new pipe but estates aren't out of the question. Should I stick with another Peterson maybe a full bent this time or should I go for something completely different?
The Aran is a half bent I think and although not a massive bowl I do get a long smoke from it. Price around the hundred dollar mark.
Any advice appreciated.
