[QUOTE="Puff Daddy, post: 298131, member: 3"] I'm curious Banjo. Are they your best smokers because they bring you the most joy (beauty, appreciation for lineage, as well as smoking well) or because they are technically the best smoking instruments in your collection? My best smoking briars are all Stanwells. An HCA II sandblast, a Nanna N3 sandblast, and a featherweight 243 sandblast. They are the best smokers, as they smoke the driest, produce consistently excellent flavor with little rest, and draft exceptionally well. I presently own around 3 dozen pipes, most are Stanwells and Petersons, with a few odds and ends here and there. I used to own quite a few high grades, including Bang, Chonowitsch, Hedegaard, Dunhill, Barling and Castello. All the Castellos smoked very well, but the Stanwells smoke just as well. Only the Bang was superior to everything else. Most of the English highgrade pipes and Danish highgrade pipes did not operate as well as the Stanwells as far as being smoking devices, but they had their romance and that goes pretty far for factoring in enjoyability.
