[QUOTE="Ocelot55, post: 331808, member: 2387"] Yeah, a year ago that would have been my sentiment as well. The pipemaker in me wants to believe a properly engineered pipe will smoke great no matter what while one that has poor engineering will smoke awfully. While there are some guidelines where the majority of good smoking pipes fall, there are those that despite flaws smoke incredibly well, or despite their precision smoke poorly. Some of this has to do with the briar, certainly, but a lot has to do with the smoker as well. I sold a few pipes about a year ago (French Wessex pipes as a matter of fact) to a chap who, after he had smoked them, told me they were some of his finest smoking pipes. For whatever reason (I suspect a restricted draw) they just didn't work for me. He, on the other hand, had no trouble with them. [/QUOTE]
