Christmas Pipes

The 2022 lines are starting to arrive. Savinelli can usually be counted on to make Christmas pipes that actually look like Christmas. This year is no exception.

I haven't bought a new pipe in a long time. This might be the one.

Dang Jim, now I'm thinking that I need one.

I want to wait to see what Peterson does this year (though they are rarely obnoxious enough for me), but I also want the pick of the litter now on these. The pressure is more than I can bear.

I don't need this one, either:

I say if you're not strapped financially, you should buy what you like when you see it. You've been at this long enough to know what you like and what is a decent price. FFS it's just a pipe, not your retirement villa.

Its that kind of thinking that got a Reddington Classic Trout Flyrod delivered to my office last week...

Indeed.

I bought it about five minutes after my first post. Just enjoying talking about something besides trump and casual sex.

Man, that would be awesome. What would you like to talk about? Start the thread. I'll follow.
