Do you distinguish between expensive and cheap pipes, pipes for working and pipes for relaxing? Are you afraid of potential damage or scratches to your nicer pipes, or are they a tool for a job that can and will show some wear?

    Random example: If you want to smoke while camping, would you risk damaging an expensive pipe or bring a cheaper pipe? I don’t mean using a pipe that smokes less good, but cutting back on esthetics or so.

      The question contains the answer.

      Bring cheaper pipe, because

      1. Risk of damage to pipe
      2. Expensive pipe is assumed too expensive and thus is irreplaceable due to cost
      3. It is a irregular event justifying irregular item such as cheap pipe
