PIF Briar Pipe

[Prof. Moriarty]

Up for grabs is this Bruken Briar Pipe, it is the pipe I got after I chucked my Big Ben pipe.
This pipe is small, light, looks decent. The stem could use a clean, there is some charring around the rim, and it could use a polish.
It isn't properly broken in yet, it won't win awards for being the best smoker but it ain't bad.
I just don't use it anymore ever since getting a Dunhill Bulldog for cheap as it is an amazing smoker.

PIF is open to anyone who is interested to start smoking pipes, or who hasn't smoked a briar. I will close this PIF in a week or two and decide somehow who wins.

***EDIT*** I do have one requirement. If you win, you need to post your experience here in the BL, and become active in this subforum (if you aren't already).

Nice PIF Till! Not in because I'm experienced, but a great intro for someone.

 

[The Dean]

That really is a beautiful little pipe. Not in as i have smoked briar pipes--and because I am no longer a regular pipe smoker. But that will make a new smoker very happy.

 

[Argonaut]

Very generous PIF! I thought by the title that you misspelled "Broken" briar pipe. I wonder if that's the reason no one has jumped in on this yet. If you'd like me to edit the title for you, let me know.

Nice PIF....those square-shanked pipes are quite attractive.

I would like to put my app in for this pipe. I have posted in here before 3-4 months ago about starting pipe smoking. I have always hassled with "cig smoking" but have tried pipes and cigars before. I do love the taste of tobacco and have not found a good start pipe yet. I would love to sit on my back porch with a good pipe and tobacco while sipping on some whiskey. To me a good taste'n tobacco in a nice pipe mixed in with good time to smoke is that special place. All seriousness though I imagine myself with a nice pipe just enjoying the tobacco and losing myself in the moment just appreciating the time. Also I will PIF, if acceptable, a few tubs of proraso shaving tubs I ought in Italy. Thanks for the chance.

That's sharp looking. I am not in. But it's a nice PIF and I hope someone gives it a good home!

Very handsome pipe, Professor! And very gracious of you! Just started smoking pipes, and am enjoying the experience (or will be again as soon as I get over my cold). But already have several briars. I am sure the lucky recipient will enjoy it.

I am very surpised that this is not getting more attention, not complaining because right now I have a 50/50 shot at starting my pipe collection.

Auction and such I am guessing. And I have a 100% chance of reducing my pipe collection by 50%

 

[rockviper]

oh, fiddlesticks, count me in.

I detest cigarettes, but do smoke the occasional cigar. However, I have very fond memories of an old long-departed friend who used to puff on cherry tobacco. I thought his whole house smelled...... what's the best way to say it?..... warm and welcoming.

I can't say that I will become a super regular poster in this part of B&B, but we'll see.

 

[Padre OBrien]

I'm in. I haven't smoked a pipe since college days, but my son (28 yr old) has picked it up. It might be nice to share that time and passion with him.
