    *** What Are You Smoking?*** (September 2017)

    I love the taste of Latakia....enjoying Hearth and Home's Ten to Midnight, as well as a bowl of Sutliff's Old Professor. Also, although it is not like Dunhill's Nightcap....it's more aromatic....I like Sutliff's Nightcap...don't taste Latakia but a pleasant change.

    Most Desirable Pipe Rack Sizes?

    Seven is probably the lucky number, one for each day, but I guess for collectors and pipe men with PAD the bigger the better. I just ordered one for sixty, lol.

    Altering The Length Of A Pipe Stem

    I figured out how to put the avatar on, but I have not figured out how to post photos, yet. It's difficult when you're computer illiterate, lol. Still learning. I can't even read the signature on the pipe. I just acquired it for fifty bucks. The silver is a little loose but it stays intact...

    Altering The Length Of A Pipe Stem

    Has anyone ever cut a pipe stem down (Vulcanite) on purpose or as I just did (LOL) by accident? About a little over a quarter of an inch broke off as I was attempting to make it fit tighter in the sterling silver mount as it was tapered too narrow. I used the hair dryer to heat it and drill bit...

    Fiebring's Leather Dye

    Has anyone used this dye to color a pipe? I just acquired six briar bowls in poor condition and five stems. I think the stems are original but they are loose fitting. The shame is that these were expensive pipes I believe, and they sanded off and down the logos, but I was able to figure out...

    2 Questions re Pipe restoration

    I use Arm and Hammer toothpaste with baking soda for cleaning the rims, and a lot of elbow grease, lol. Saliva sounds like a big turn off to most people if you tell them that.

    Any Falcon Pipe Smokers Out There

    I never liked the look of Falcon pipes even as a kid when my uncle smoked his I thought he looked stupid, but wait, I just got one in an estate pipe sale and thought about selling it . . . till I cleaned it up, and I am at this moment smoking it. I love it. It's not heavy and it's very...

    Iwan Ries TV Commercial

    I just placed an order with them and it came rather quickly. IRC Kings Oriental, and a couple pouches of China Black. Has anyone tried Kings Oriental? I remember pipe commercials were still on when cigarette commercials were banned. I guess they're not on anymore. lol

    Health Benefits of Pipe Smoking

    My father smoked a pipe till he was 80 and he died at 83 and a half . . . from a stroke . . . I guess he should not have given up on the briar . . . oh, but wait, he was having mini stokes before that, and that's why he gave up the pipe. No, pipe smoking does not stop strokes, but it is...

    How Much Is Too Much To Pay For An E Bay Estate Pipe?

    I know the answer is what you're willing to pay for a pipe is what it is, but some times you can get carried away in the bidding and wind up paying more than you wanted. Perhaps you must do research when you spot that pipe just to see what a brand new one would cost, If you can find it...

    Weird Tongue Bite Cure

    Has anyone experienced calming down tongue bite with switching tobaccos? After smoking my pipe most of the day I started to get a little tongue bite . . . so I stopped. Then having no will power, I pick up my new BC (Estate Sale) and filled it with Boswell's Majestic 586, and it began to calm...

    Prominent Women Pipe Smokers

    Timely, was I being harsh? I didn't say women couldn't smoke pipes . . . it's just my opinion that it looks ridiculous to me, but not to everyone. I find it to be a turn off personally. So I guess Pipe Babes is not for me, lol. Apologies to all who I seem to have offended.

    Prominent Women Pipe Smokers

    Maybe I am in the minority here, but personally, I can't stand the site of a woman smoking a pipe. I feel it is a manly thing . . . and gees . . . can't we men have anything to ourselves. It's like a man wearing a skirt and carrying a pocketbook, they do, but come on, they look ridiculous...

    Emptying Tobacco on the Side of the Shoe

    My father (pipe man till his 80's) use to do that, lol. I use to see that in the old movies as well, but didn't think guys did that today, especially after paying so much for a pipe.

    Any Central NJ Pipe Men?

    Wondering if any of you are from my area as it would be great to meet up with other brothers of the briar? Would like to have discussions about pipes, lighters, tobaccos, and techniques in our hobby.
