Sunrise pipes caught my attention many years ago; they were made by Comoy's. Probably a seconds line for Comoy's as quite a few of them have fills. It's fun to find one on Ebay or at an antique store. They smoke good and you rarely have to pay more than $20 for one.

Well, I think most know by now that I get a woody for the old Kaywoodie White Briars.....

Savinelli had the Naturals line, now called Unfinished. They smoked great and used to sell for $35. Unfortunately, they've changed the name, and increased the price to $70. Which really sucks for a pipe that has a buncha fills with no finish.

For inexpensive pipes, I've stuck with Dr. Grabow via the local Walgreens.

Cobs, of course, need you ask :)

But also, I've been buying and finishing some unfinished briars and clays from this guy on the bay of e:

fory63 | eBay (http://www.ebay.com/sch/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_ipg=&_from=&_ssn=fory63&_sop=1)

I've documented some of them on this thread:

They're pretty thin and rife with fills, but smoke just fine although the bowls can get a little hot. Nice thing about their thinness - very lightweight, easy to just hold in your mouth while working with your hands.

I like my Dr Grabow but have found the cob pipes I have can be just as enjoyable.
