[QUOTE="monbla256, post: 496963, member: 2244"] I think you've hit the proverbial nail on the head Occelot. You find much of the engineering/manufacturing qualities you mention in many of the brands of pipes made back in the pre-80's . The only other thing I would add would be the shape of the bit and how it fits ones teeth. For me a wide thin fishtail has been my bit of choice as well as a Pot shape which seems to respond to the majority of types of 'baccy I smoke as well as how I smoke 'em. I'm also partial to the use of Algerian briar but most of mine are from the era I mentioned. I'm not all that familiar with some of the newer pipes made with this briar. JMHO :twisted: [/QUOTE]
