That’s nice, I bet it feels real good in hand.
Now smoking Wilke Lizzie Blood Virginia in a straight black with burgundy undertone sandblasted early 1960s Lane era Charatan 420 billiard with a black vulcanite tapered stem. This should get me to dinner time.
Does he mention the Knout? A particularly brutal form of punishment. They used whips of specially hardened rawhide and.... you can all research the rest, I don’t want to put anyone off their dinner.
Just finished some New World in the stubby GW clay and moving on to Germain’s Medium Flake in the Caveman, I just can’t get enough of this pipe, I love it. The bowl is just short of two inches so you get a load in there.
GLP Temple Bar in the Aboriginal peterson's Dublin.
Having a burleygasm with Uhle’s double aught in a Foreverstemmed Country Gent. Going on ten years with this tender cob, one of many of this give-or-take vintage, and she’s none the worse for wear. There’s a wine analogy here somewhere. Let us celebrate both the Grand Cru and the field blend that, occasionally, (more often than not?) outshines the aristocrat. Well, at least for those who open their bottles the same day. As such, tobacco. But that’s another conversation.
Something about the Florida environment is making my pipe bowls somewhat less enjoyable, though it might be that I smoke outside since there are several children running around indoors. Hirochi Robaina on the patio, before the mosquitos emerge at dusk.
Byronic Slices in a Peterson Aboriginal Carved Meer
Whether inspired by the Zeppelins of the time ...
... or rugby balls
... or even canoes
... the shape became more popular from the 1920s as fold-over souvenir pipe

@greeneyes Every February we spend 10 days or so in Islamorada and its cigars only for me. I don’t even bother to bring pipes anymore, between the temp and the humidity my pipes just don’t work, its outdoor smoking there for me as well. HR is a great cigar!

I love the stuff. I just added some to an order to get free shipping. It's good enough to dedicate a pipe to.
Smoking an Argentine OTC Virginia/Burley blend which has been pressed for two weeks. Having it in the Argyle bullcap. A wee dram as well.
That isca well used meet. I love it's simplicity.
Yes, the carving of briar was particularly fine during the mid-late 19th and early 20th century ...
... even on the odd Boer War Oom Paul pipe of 1900 ...
... and also the carved famous heads of the period including royalty and of popular figures such as Bacchus and jockey Tommy Corrigan:-
... until from the middle of the 20th century the carving had degenerated to such an extent and so crudely executed they became that the heads were only good for tourist souvenir pieces.
Relaxing after a wonderful salad, big filet mignon and mashed potatoes dinner with a slice of chocolate chess pie for dessert. I'm almost half way through this bowl of year 2013 Tilbury in a three quarter bend 1983 Jobey Danski 2 straight grain freehand rough top sitter with an pearl amber acrylic stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
Now smoking a bowl of Warped Sarto in a Savinelli Roma 320. Definitely a full bodied English, similar to Nightcap or Quiet Nights - still getting a feel for this blend.
