What was your first pipe?

[Boomshot]

I bought my first pipe not too long ago. It is a medium sized hand carved Meershaum with a really nice cobra on the front. It gets a great smoke and I love it!!!

I didn't do so well with my first pipe. I bought a good looking bent bulldog, not sure on brand if there even was one, It smoked very wwet and wouldn't pass a pipe cleaner. Thankfully I have had better luck since. Glad to hear things went well with your first one.

I've mainly smoked corncobs, I recently bought a pipe from Boswell's and love it. Just need to smoke it more often.

My first pipe was a great little briar, a drug store pipe, a Dr Grabow Omega. I bought it when I was in college back in 70's. It's a good smoking little pipe that I still have to this day. They don't make them like this any more, just look at the quality of the Dr Grabows now. I put my pipe down for about 25 years, that is until a couple of years ago I started back up with a group of friends who are avid cigar smokers. Since then I have started to collect unique pipes that capture my personality and style. I have since picked up a generic sand blasted, dark stained Oom Paul, a one of a kind Italian Lorenzo Poker Pipe with built in sitter stand and a large built in moisture trap, a Dutch Cobalt Blue Big Ben, and a large bowl hand carved briar Churchwarden. I prefer bent stem pipes as a personal favorite.

Very cool bro! You should head over to the intro section and tell us a bit about yourself...

as for me, I have yet to smoke a pipe. I had a guy the other day at the bar smoking one and it smelled awesome. Can't wait to give it a shot!

My first pipe was a little wooden one I got at the head shop in the early 80's for smoking my pot(stopped that 15 years ago)My first tobacco pipe was a Dr Grabow.

My 1st was a MM Country Gentleman cob, the exact one I'm smoking in my avitar. It's a great smoker and I still enjoy it frequently.

The cheapest I could find. A brandless bent billiard.

Nice way to start off!

I bought a starter kit with two generic Italian made pipes (bent + straight billiard), a tamper, pipe lighter and some tobacco samples.
This quickly progressed into PAD / TAD.

I started with a straight Dr. Grabow and a pack of cherry pipe tobacco. I still have the pipe, but I can still almost taste that cherry pipe tobacco, I get queezie just thinking about the stuff!

It was a new, small Kaywoodie dublin with plumbing. Pretty horrible, but what did I know? I've still got it, somewhere.

First one was a corncob!
