So, as some of you know and if not, now you do I'm pretty new to pipe smoking. I already have 4 pipes in my collection, 2 just purchased last weekend and already looking at another which I've been wanting to get for some time....an Eric Nording Signature pipe. All of my pipe purchases I've done in person to see how they look and feel in my hand. I'm ridicliously OCD about it as I want it to fit nicely in my massive right hand. But this one stands out to me and sadly wasn't available in the store when I made a stop at Cigars International last weekend. Instead I purchased 2 different ones. I've tried to get reviews on them but it seems like their 50/50 with it and now makes me on the fence if I want to go with it. Some reviews have said by the oils on your hand it takes away from the briar maturing and leaves the mark of where your hand has been. Over some time, which I found cool is that the pipe is unfinished and will get its color as you smoke it. Which in all honesty, turned me off from even buying one and just saving my money for something else. Any of my fellow brothers have any of the Nording pipes or even better this specific pipe and what do you like/dislike about it????
