Hello oh wise ones. I've found a pipe that I absolutely love, but I am not sure if it's damage that means the pipe should be avoided, or whether it's just a common sort of line that runs through briar that could be prone to opening up but may not.
I guess what I'm saying is that I can see it's not perfect (it's old but new/unsmoked) and wondering if this WILL definitely cause a problem and open up more or even split asunder once I started smoking it, or will the band keep it nicely together? Please give me your thoughts and impressions so I can make a buying decision, here's the pics:
Many thanks in anticipation of your guidance.
