[QUOTE="puros_bran, post: 11059, member: 10"] Size is a very subjective thing. For 20-30years it seems the American market has slowly enlarged pipe sizes. What we consider a small pipe was actually the average size not to long ago. The trick is to match the pipe to the tobacco and the smoking conditions. If you have a while to smoke grab a mild-medium strength weed and a big pipe. Interested in some stout weed or pressed for time? Grab a smaller bowl. As for what to smoke in what, I start all pipes on Va or Va/per. If it seems off after a bit I'll switch it to english. This method allows the hard Va cake to base the pipe and prevents the latweed crossover you'd experiance if done the other way around. [/QUOTE]
