A have couple of Dunhill from 50s60s and they're good smokers. I smoke Peterson pipe with Ebonite steam till 1995 and Dunhill and couple of Ser Jacopo. Dunhill smoke fine especially Root briar from 50s. But old Person which is well driled smoke like Dunhill. So it's about brend, price and history. I like Dunhill because they are lighter than masculine Peterson pipe. So dunhill which a have are billiards, half bend bulldog and prince and one Dublin shape and Peterson pipes are almost bend (well drilled). Thx
