    It came today. Never had one before and this one screamed BUY ME! PAD never ends does it.
    Falcon

    There is nothing like being left alone again, to walk peacefully with oneself in the woods.
    To boil one's coffee and fill one's pipe, and to think idly and slowly as one does it.

    Looks good. But something about falcons turn me off towards them I'll have to try one before I make a true judgment.
    I hope you get lots of enjoyment out of it .

    Congrats! I don't have a Falcon, but as much good stuff as I've heard about them, I'm going to have to try one.

    Looks like I need to get some special Falcon stuff to go with it. Do I really need the pipe cleaner looking stinger (dry ring) in it? Special pipe cleaners? Falcon Pipe Spray?

    No, I don't use drying rings or anything but tapered pipe cleaners. After I smoke it I turn off the bowl and wipe it out. If You think You need drying rings just cut up some pipe cleaners and bend them. Happy smoking.

    Thanks ace, i was worried that money would have to be taken away from PAD/TAD for other stuff. What am I thinking, Jake can eat every other day, that should compensate.

    I owned and smoked Falcon pipes for a couple of years and must say I really did like them! A very versatile pipe!

    You will NOT regret buying a Falcon. I have 3 stems and 6 bowls. I love them all. The only objection that an OWNER might reasonably have is the appearance. They are very cool smokers. Congrats on the bird.

    I've 4 Dr.G Vikings that serve me well but that Falcon is very sharp in comparison. Long live PAD!

    Very nice. I love the colors.I've got a falcon myself, and I really like it. I'm sure you will enjoy yours

    As long as I got a pipe full of baccy and a nose full of snuff, I'm a happy camper

    I had a Falcon some years ago (until some low life stole it from the pub!) and always found it smoked very well indeed. I like the idea of being able to change the bowls to accommodate different styles of tobacco and avoid ghosting. I guess your next worry will be BAD (Bowl Acquisition Disorder)!

    nice color

    Marry the right person, this one decision will determine 90% of your happiness.

    Does a culture based on seperation and competition, of scientific sophistication and mideval religion, offer happiness even as it ravishes the Earth that sustains it?

    Gorgeous! Now I'm going to have to get Shaun to finish the restoration of the two in the garage so I can discover the wonders of the Falcon too.
