I have 2 new pipes. A peterson Christmas 2014 and a Sav. #607. I am afraid to use them until I get more experience with smoking a pipe. Should I just suck it up and use them or give it a bit of time? I am getting to the point to where I can minimize my re-lights but I am not great yet.

Also are there better break in tobaccos?
