    Legality of Trading Tobacco

    I've never traded/swapped tobacco before. Is there any legality issues at risk for doing so beyond assuring you aren't dealing with a minor? Thanks!

    Erik Nording Compass Pipes

    Does anyone have any experience with Nording's Compass pipe? I'm interested in getting a poker as I don't own one. When I was searching around the internet I came across his Compass pipe and it intrigued me. I think the price is good at $38 shipped (new.) It's certainly non-traditional, but...

    Christmas Cheer

    Just thought I would post this for anyone in the Evansville, IN area. I stopped by a shop called Cigar! Cigar! while traveling and found great collection of tobacco. I picked up a tin CC 2015. Sorry but I took the last one. They still have 2 tins of 2016 I left behind.

    Linkman's Fifty Grand Question

    I picked up a Linkman's Fifty Grand pipe at a local antique shops. I didn't know anything about it, but since it was well smoked I figured it was worth picking up hoping it would be a good performer. I got home and did some research. What I discovered is that all Fifty Grand pipes are marked...

    Meet and Greet, Social Smoke (Bloomington, IN area)

    I just recently acquired some Peterson St. Patrick's Day 2017 tobacco. My aunt was vacationing in Ireland and picked me up some PSPD tobacco. It's a wonderful smoke and one that I feel should be shared considering you can't buy it in the states. All of my smoking friends stick with cigars, so I...

    Mauro Armellini?

    I just acquired a Mauro Armellini Verona 704 estate purchase. Can anyone share any information they have on their pipes? It looks gorgeous so I couldn't resist. I paid under $50 for it.

    Diamond in the Rough

    Which pipe is your diamond in the rough? Mine is a Dulcet F495 pot shaped briar. It looks rough with its many fills. However, it is only outsmoked by my Pete system pipe. The Pete cost me $155, the Dulcet cost me $10. Share your diamond in the rough story.

    Full Strength Non-Aromatic Recommendations

    Can anyone direct me to a good full strength tobacco? I've tried Nightcap, Frog Morton on the Town, Erik Nording's Hunter Blend Fox Hound, and Balkan Sobranie. All of which I enjoyed. Nightcap and Sobranie were recommended to me. Frog and Erik I tried on my own knowing they would suit a...

    Peterson Christmas Pipe 2010

    Can anyone share their experience with the Peterson 2010 pipe? I just recently made an estate purchase on one and have found little information on it based on first handed owner experience. I know that it is from the 2nd iteration of their Christmas/Holiday series. However, most blog post that I...

    New to the Hobby. Estate Stanwell or Comoy NIB?

    I'm new to the hobby. I purchased my first pipe last month. A Peterson System XL 315. I immediately fell in love with pipe smoking and quickly purchased a handful of cheap estate pipes off of ebay. In addition to the Peterson I now own 3 Kaywoodie's, a Dr. G, and 2 Big Ben's. I am officially and...
