Need Pipe Suggestions.

[600g]

Looking to buy the old man a pipe this year for fathers day. Can anyone recommend some quality brand names, countries of origin, etc to get me pointed in the right direction.

Not looking to go nuts with price, but I definitely want to give him something nice..

Thanks

I really do love me a Peterson of Dublin... Being an Irishmen and all.
Lots of great Italian pipe brands as well.

I bought my father a Savinelli from Smokingpipes.com last year - it's his favorite pipe.

I agree with all the above!

And would like to add, Eric Nording pipes are fantastic, and gorgeous. So are Mark Tinsky pipes. They are custom pipes, usually.

Birding and stanwells are great inexpensive pipes. Savenellis are good too. For better pipes, check out Ser Jacabos, Ashton and Dunhills. My all time favorite pipe is make by Jess Chonowitz.. Awesome pipe. You need to find out what style you like and go from there. What I may like, you might not.

All the above make a good pipe, I'll also throw in Boswell pipes from Chambersburg, PA.

Thread update:

Ended up getting a Karl Eric Pipe, pretty nice looking, thought it would make a good starter pipe. Payed around $59.
