    Ever Buy Get A Bic That Acts Like A Flamethrower?

    Meer Polishing / Sanding Question

    Some Jose Rubio Pipe Porn

    My Ugly PAD

    I love the rough and tumble look of the Estella. Before purchasing a couple a few years back, I quizzed the Ol' Cajun about them. He said you can't go wrong and they will be great smokers. The Ol' Cajun was right, as usual.

    Favorite English Pipes

    No special order: Ashton, Dunhill, Ferndown, Northern Briars, Charatan, Sasieni, Upshall, Pre-Trans Barling, Petes, Hardcastle. But, I must say, I am an English pipe brand nut. I love the style and the culture.

    Peterson 2019 POTY Arrived!

    Beautiful pipe, Anthony. I agree with you. If SP.com can get the folks at Peterson to bring this out in Rosslare Royal Irish, it will run right off the charts. Still the john bull is a beaut.
