El Dagner pipes - Any impressions or feedback?

[epazikas]

Hello to all fellow pipe colleagues.
Does any of you have tried the El Dagner pipe? Any impressions to share, both positive and not so positive aspects?
I like this model and have read through some information which points out this to be a quality pipe and nice looking, but would prefer to get some information from you guys, if you have.
thank you, Ed

Look up Jason dagner on YouTube. I have a couple, I wouldn't say that they are high quality pipes but they seem affordable. I believe he has a Italian company make them for him.

I think they are overpriced but I understand that 5-10 years ago they were popular. I’d go with something from Savinelli or Peterson before I went with Dagner. Nothing against him personally, I liked his videos years ago.

Seems like a cool little collection of pipes. The shapes aren’t super appealing to me but I do kind of like the briar poker. I’m not hugely into nose warmers generally. To me, roughly $100 doesn’t seem pricey but others may disagree.
If you like what you see and can afford it, get one. I suspect they’re not terrible.

I saw that pipe. It actually pretty inexpensive and looks good. You are not going to get much cheaper than that these days. Ive never had one so thats all I know. They are sold by shops with a good reputation. I doubt they would carry garbage (I hope). Tom Eltang is involved in the venture....

The price on that one isn’t too bad but it’s still probably a $40 pipe. Seems like a Molina but I’m a cheap bastard!

I was gonna say that the blast looks better than what Molina does but then I saw this molina. Ive always wondered about Molina. They are SOOO cheap. This one is about 60 bucks with 20 percent VAT

Thank you, that is what I thought too. I bought it from Danishpipes shop which is a very serious company. At the start I was a bit concerned because I haven’t heard of this brand before but when I realized it is the result of a join project together with Tom Eltang then I decided to give a try. I like the shape but I am uncertain if the distance between the bawl and the nose would be too close….i hope not. What I think it is nice is the fact that it seems to be sturdy and heavy duty. I hope I won’t be disappointed, but time will tell….

I apologize, I didn’t realize it was an Eltang collaboration, the price seems reasonable. I can’t really afford an Eltang so I could see me going for this if the pipe shape suited me.

No worries my friend, I am glad you raised a concern, that was the reason why I am asking about your opinions! I truly appreciate your help!

I wouldn't have guessed that Tom Eltang would collaborate with Dagner. That's pretty cool.
