Should I buy a Butz Choquin Gourd Calabash?

[commonsenseman]

This is why I love pipe section, and also why I don't smoke or get involved with pipes.

The thread title looks like it's just a joke, but it's not. Which is some seriously funny ish.

True, only in a pipe forum.

On a side note: BUY A PIPE

Take the Emperor's advice & grab a cob. Drug store tobacco can be has for a few bucks a pouch too.

You'd be crazy not to at least give it a try

You're really going to ask THIS group of enablers if you should buy something?

You're asking a bunch of PAD addicts if you should buy a new pipe?

The answer will be yes from us, almost always yes

But in all seriousness, I have never owned one either. The prices seem about right though...if you have one lined up pull the trigger

Good point. lol

I have a gourd calabash but it is not a BC. A meerschaum gourd calabash smokes very, very cool. I recommend that you buy one; be sure you get a stand for it!

What is this, a trick question? Of course you should!

[commonsenseman]

The question isn't whether you should buy one, the question is whether you need one.

The answer is yes to both.

I had a gourd calabash, maybe twenty years ago. It smoked exceptionally well, but I didn't smoke it often because it was so big. It just felt clumsy to me.

So I found one new for $209, pull the trigger? Or look to pick up a used one and freshen it up?
