Unboxing and First Smoke of a Brand New Savinelli Punto Oro Sterling Silver Army Mount Pipe 

Good stuff! Congrats on a new NEW pipe.

Bradley: You probably know this but FYI the legend is that the military mount's origin is from the English cavalry needing to pop their pipes apart quickly when going into battle without running the risk of cracking the shank. I have no idea whether the legend is true but it seems to make sense. Keep Puffin.

Thanks for this video. I'm new to the world of pipe smoking, and just received my first brand new pipe. A Savinelli Acrobaleno 111 with the blue finish

Your videos are excellent. Very interesting and entertaining, makes me want to get into pipe smoking straight away.

Fell in love when I first laid eyes on this pipe. After about a month of searching BINGO. Can not wait to receive my first Punto Oro and luckily it was a decent price for a Punto Oro. Appreciate your content and look forward to more brother.

Gary Kocharian - It's a great hobby! Very relaxing.

If you have a mishap and dent a stem again, try applying some gentle heat to the vulcanite. A lot of times the heat will lift out the dent. You can lift smaller tooth marks out the same way.

Haha funny how you mentioned the frank method, as I saw a punto oro savinelli similar to yours in Achim Franks store some weeks ago. He thought me his method aswell, very funny guy, very special, perhaps a little bit crazy. Nice amps and guitars man.

Have the same Punto Oro in 115 ks shape.Bought it new also one of the best smokes that you can get , mine is unfiltered.All the best

Sweet pipe....you deserved the new purchase bro!

Awesome pipe !

Greetings. I've been trying to get into the hobby recently, and I've been enjoying your videos very much. Your approach is simple and practical yet refined and unique enough to maintain interest. Bravo on nailing that sweet spot. I got my starter pipe from a nearby tobacconist in Ridgewood, NJ, a "Spitfire by Lorenzo," which I can't seem to find any info on, but as far as I can tell the only thing it smokes well, in my limited trials is the "golden burley" sample I got from the shop. I can't find an exact shape it matches from the standard charts. It has a very slight bend (1/4 bend (?) if even), and I'd say it's a hybrid between a brandy and an angled pot because it tapers up (wider bottom), but it's also got a flat bottom making it a sitter. I also got a peach aromatic from the same shop, and that smoke just tasted burnt and bitter. I ordered some SPC plum pudding and GL Pease Meridian and Gaslight. Tried the plum pudding and gaslight, and both were also just burnt and bitter. I feel fairly confident I'm doing a decent pack because, again, the burley smokes and tastes great. I don't want to blame the pipe, but I'm not sure what to do or think. In the meantime at least, I'm on the tail end of deep cleaning two estate pipes I got on Ebay: a Savinelli Trevi rustic 111 KS and a Don Carlos big bowled brandy (best guess) sitter (two little carved feet flair and protrude off the end of the base of the bowl. The Don Carlos has me confused as it has no note markings evident, but it has a wide, fairly ornate silver band with the composer dude engraved in it, which seems like a fancy feature for a no note example. Also, the stem has no markings (wondering if it's a non-original stem). I'm also wondering if it predates the standard markings (unsure if that's even a thing). Anyway, sorry to give you my pipe story, but I came across this video after searching a pipe I just ordered from smoking pipes dot com. I had basically decided that I wanted a smooth Savinelli 122 having seen multiple sources stating pots work well with complex, robust blends. After searching various places I came across a sterling spigot, smooth Bordeaux finish in the 122 shape on sale for $126 (marked down from $312 I think). I couldn't pass that up. So yeah, again, sorry for the long story. Just wanted to express my appreciation for you enhancing and encouraging my hobby and let you know how this aged video became the most recent of your videos I have watched. Thanks again sir, and I look forward to your future work.

I just bought my first savinelli pipe! A Savinelli Alligator 614 in green.

Awesome. Nice pipe!

Lovely Savinelli Bradley, I've seen looking to purchase a new pipe that the rusticated & sand blasted pipes the bit is of a nicer acrylic/Lucite material not ebonite/vulcinite with a band between the shank vs smooth models costing more.

Very nice i would love too get one!

Im about to buy a savinelli pipe, i have a Mastro de paja as it is now :)

A new subscriber. Great channel. I do have one question, as a new pipe smoker, where do you get the mouth piece (sorry, may not be called that) that you seem to put on toward the end of your video? It is located at the shank of the pipe that you put in your mouth. I assume that it is to protect the shank from teeth marks? Just wondering. Keep up the great videos. Lived in Washington State for 4 years. Was a wonderful place. Take care.

I like that pocket knife, stag scales, German made? I mainly collect Italian switchblades but just recently I have broadened my horizons! just last week I purchased a nice quality Spiderco which I am digging. For the price range it is a good buy and I also just bought a Boker pocket knife with nickel silver bolsters and beautiful stag scales. Solingen.

VERY NICE

Savinelli punto oro its a great smoke indeed¡

Ever smoke or do any reviews on Kramer's? If not check out some Danny Kaye blend, very good.

Read Sigmund Freud. Beautiful pipe.

I want one of these, but I can't find one online! Which is good, as I would impulse buy it INSTANTLY.

This may be rude, but I'm curious what you paid for this pipe. Savinelli has quoted me a price as these are out of production, and I want to make sure I'm not getting screwed TOO hard lol

I have a Savenelli 2002 Tom's special

Please! Send all your unwanted Savanelli wood filter's! LOL Serious.

Please explain what you mean by a Vapour ! Please !

I see guitars. Have you ever done guitar vids?

i just purchased a estate savinelli and i dont know how to date it any idea how?

How much did you pay for this?

What is this pretty knife?

Lol never met any one that likes pre carb, I met people that tolerate it but nobody ever said: "Damn I wish this pipe was pre carbonated ;_;"

stuff and things is not your thing... not hating but talon sai did it first (at least I think so)
