How Many Posts Do I Have?

Orientals

I know I have gotten advice on this subject here before, but to begin my potential "adventure" I just want enough tobacco to get a good idea.

Lacquer Removal
In another section of the forum a member talked to the better smoke he got from his pipe after he removed the lacquer finish. How does one do that/what is the procedure? After removal, does one "refinish" the pipe with wax? Thanks!- johnparker

Bjarne Copenhagen Pipes
Re the China question I started with. Asked Pipes and Cigars. Nikos says their Bjarne pipes come from either Denmark or Italy; ones from China probably knock-offs.- johnparker
