[QUOTE="Briar Spirit, post: 329656, member: 2669"] The chaps notion of how a 'real man' smokes his pipes is entirely his opinion and to my mind he has every right to his opinion although I do not agree with him I must say. Looking at that particular pipe though it does have a serious engineering flaw which will have contributed to the pipes fatal end, the dreadful heavy handed 'rustication' of the stummel has eaten away almost every last mm of Briar of the bowl base. Had the pipe been engineered better the burn out wouldn't have happened so quickly, but in fairness to the maker the guy is smoking his pipes like he's the Olympics Torch carrier and he would eventually burn out a bowl with a 3cm thick bowl base.
