Pipe arrived today, accepted by a relative on my behalf. Finally was able to get back to take a look at it. It's a wonderful looking pipe, and I'm looking forward to enjoying it this evening. The gentleman I spoke to via email was also very polite and responded quickly. I highly recommend getting pipes from here.
Love Blakemar Briars. Mike has been offering the best craftsmanship and service you could hope to find on Earth.
I had a fantastic experience as a first-time customer. I cannot foresee myself buying anything pipe-related online anymore, when I am so fortunate to have such an lovely pipe shop near me. Everyone who is able to, must visit this shop. I only bought tobacco this time, but my first briar pipe will certainly be from Blakemar Briars.
My favourite pipes to smoke, and hold, have all been made by Blakemar Briars. Recently I bought two 'Special' pipes, one off items, a large rusticated Bulldog, and a large semi rusticated pot, both smoke superbly, are balanced, look and feel solid. For the price Mike charges-relatively little compared to other pipe makers-these pipes in my opinion are incomparable. Many thanks Blakemar Briars. I appreciate your craftsmanship and attention to customer service.
I am very unhappy with Mike, after sending in a pipe for repair as agreed with him, to have a new mouthpiece, after several months no response has been received and the various email address's seem not to work, it is hard work,
Arrived the next day within hours. Pipe is perfection, draw and drilling is perfection. Finish is perfection and the price is a perfection. Will be back for more . A proper pipe without a silly corporate price tag
I have smoked pipes for over 40 years and used lots of tobacconists and pipe makers. I've never known service and quality like this. Ordered a lovely poker pipe,.to my astonishment it arrived the next day, absolute top quality. Over the moon with that, I then sent a Peterson extra large billiard which I couldn't get a stem for. It came back with a beautiful new stem and all buffed and polished, all within a matter of days. This is now my go to tobacconist for all my pipe smoking needs. I highly recommended Mike and a gentleman to boot.
Excellent quality and service. My late father swore by Blakemar Briars and I recently bought a large apple. Needless to say it is flawless in its appearance and smokes beautifully. These pipes are a genuine bargain and made with great skill and passion. All the best to Mike for the future.
