hi. i am looking for recommendations for budget nosewarmer pipes for work. i know about all the short cob pipes but would like something a little nicer. something with a small bowl as well. maybe something like a yello bole pug?
So is the minuto too expensive? It comes with a pipe bag, Czech tool and filters for $88 at smokingpipes. Then there is the mini ranging $80 to 100, but no bag, in different styles. Both from Savinelli.
^^^The Minuto is small, but it's a nice little pipe. I get about 20 minutes out of it. If that's out of your price range an estate, like you said, may be your best bet.
I may just go cob route. Maybe the dagner poker. Or if i could find one the c&d pipe is nice too.
I've got to take a pic of mine. Seems smaller.
I've ordered from them several times. They're a good site to deal with. Never had any issues, and like Smoking Pipes, the pipe you see is the pipe you get.I have small hands...but big feet.
I looked up the Yello-Bole Pug and it looks good...briar instead of brylon. Since I have Dad's old Yello-Bole from the '50s I have been thinking about getting a new one but all I had found was the brylon crap. Came across this site looking up the Pug and the Imperial looks okay but I don't know any thing about the WV SmokeShop. If they are like Vegas Smokes I don't want anything to do with them.
