PAD's been hitting me hard lately. I just got this Hungarian in the mail today. A BBB estate, a Bruno Nuttens Bing and a Randy Wiley hopefully arriving soon. My name is Irminsul and I'm a pipeaholic. Help.  |

Padaholic!
That Sav is pretty classy, and the rest have great pedigrees!

Very nice! I’d like to see that BBB too... The Nuttens just arrived, although I bought it a couple of days after the BBB (from that excellent UK estate shop), but the latter got flagged by customs and has endured the inevitable delay. It should be here soon. |

Very nice pipe! A true classic. I've noticed that the brass dot on the stem is larger than it used to be. Any comments on this?

I was looking at Punto Oro pipes at Smokingpipes.com and it appears that if the pipe has a vulcanite stem the dot is the same small dot that they have used since the beginning. However, if the pipe is furnished with an acrylic stem they are now using a larger brass dot. At least that is how it looks to me after looking at quite a few of their new pipes. I'm not saying there is anything bad about this, it's just new to me. Still all are beautiful pipes!

I believe both are fitted with acrylic stems, so I don't have a basis for comparison. I can never properly deoxidize my well used pipes with vulcanite stems, so I prefer acrylic whenever I have a choice. |
