    Block Meerschaum

    Hey all, been looking for a meerschaum pipe in my price range. This one is listed as being block. It looks like there is a seam along the side. Do you reckon it’s block or pressed? It’s also listed as a 9mm which I want. Not sure where the filter would go though.

    Jean-Claude Churchwarden

    I smoke 9mm pipes and was looking for an affordable Churchwarden. Stumbled across this small Italian beauty. Other than reminding you of an action hero every time you pick it up, the pipe smokes well. Would recommend it to anyone looking for an affordable 9mm Churchwarden. If there is anyone...

    Smoker’s Pride

    Hey all, interested in any thoughts concerning the Smoker’s Pride tobaccos. I’ve tried the Black Cavendish which is rather nice. I ordered the Rum Cured. Waiting to try it. Hope it’s nice. Any others that are worth trying? Thoughts on the Rum cured?

    Peterson Lighter

    Hey all, Happy New Year! I love my Peterson lighter, however, when refilling with Xikar fuel, a great deal escapes. Has anyone found a solution to this problem? A tip that works properly? Thanks.

    Vauen Luxus White Dot

    Hey guys, I can’t find much info. on this pipe or comparable ones. Must be an older model. I don’t have many costly pipes. Mostly cobs, a pair of Savinellis and a pair of Vauen Basics. My preference is for 9mm filtered, so when I saw this pipe I pulled the trigger. Looked better than my basics...

    No Licorice or Anise Flavour

    In my never ending quest to avoid all tobaccos with this flavour profile, I’ve seen Half and Half and SWR identified as no go’s. Do Prince Albert and Carter Hall also fall victim to this madness? 😂 Any other popular tobaccos out there to avoid? I’m always weary of pulling the trigger on...

    Adelaide Australia

    Anybody know of any good B&M’s in Adelaide Australia?

    Lane Black Raspberry

    I may be in the minority of pipe smokers who like aro’s, but just had to share my love for this stuff. Total guilty pleasure! I enjoy CBRM, Hobbit’s Weed Match and Lord Methley’s, but gotta say that Lane’s offering is really quite good. Doesn’t hurt that my wife thinks it smells nice also.

    Carving A Pipe

    Been working on carving myself a pipe. Currently, the chamber walls are a half inch thick. Is there any drawback to having such thick chamber walls other than weight?

    Mason Jar Vacuum Sealer

    Has anyone ever tried one of those mason jar vacuum sealers? I just screwed down my jars tight and was thinking if using one to achieve a better seal without reboiling/redoing some recently stored jars.

    Rattray Mary

    Looking at the Rattray Mary as a small pipe during the cold Canadian winter. Getting too old to sit outside for over 30 min. I really like the look of the pipe. Any thoughts from those of you who have smoked one? I’ve never owned a Rattray pipe. I regularly smoke and enjoy 9mm charcoal filters...

    Pipe Stain

    Bought a Mr. Brog briar pipe carving block. Any recommendation on a non-toxic wood stain for the finished pipe? Conversely, would you just leave it natural with a beeswax/carnuba wax finish? Appreciate any help.

    Obsidian Oil

    Has anyone had their Obsidian Oil start to congeal? Opened my bottle for the first time to try it and there was a white waxy build up around the bottom of the bottle neck. I shook it and it seemed to mix back in. Just wondering if this was the norm. Thanks.

    Vauen Basic Bent Apple

    I have a ton of Savanelli pipes, cobs of all sorts, and a Peterson. I love them all. I just got a Vauen Basic pipe from SPC, however, and it’s knocked my socks off! What a great smoker. Loaded it up with some OGS and I am having a blissful experience. Can’t recommend the pipe enough. So...

    Acrylic Filtered Stems For M.M.’s

    Hey all, is anyone aware of filtered replacement stems for Missouri Meerschaums? Forever Stems don’t come in filtered. I reached out to M.M. But they don’t sell their acrylic stems separately. Any help would be appreciated.

    Bleeding A Peterson Lighter

    Hey all, was wondering what tool you guys use to bleed your butane lighters. Sounds like a silly question, but with the price of these babies, I was wondering if some tools are better than others. I saw in a forum search that someone recommended the Xikar Tune Up Tool. Can’t seem to find them...

    Show Us Your IMCOs

    We’ve had some great zippo posts and pics . I’ve got a couple I love. My main outdoor lighter, however, is the Imco. Anyone have any cool ones? Austrian made IMCOs from left the right. 6600 Junior, 6700 Triplex and 6800 Streamline. Far right hand side is a more recent 6700 Japanese Windmill...

    Village Cigar Co. Burlington Ontario

    I’ve got a great B&M in my city called the Village Cigar Company. Stepping into the store is like stepping into a time warp. Really great guys. Is there any way to add them to the retail directory under Ontario?

    Legend Maritime Morning

    Has anyone tried this blend recently? They advertise it as being similar to Peterson Early Morning. Wanted to know opinions on it.
