    How Many Blends Do You Have in Rotation?

    I currently have 11 open jars and one old kaywoodie humidor that holds about 8 oz. Once I finish a jar I'll open another one. That being said if I'm craving something I don't hesitate to pull it out of the cellar. The 12 blends currently that are open cover a wide gamut.

But I lost it on a vacation (ironically that was for my birthday :( ) and a Gert Holbek. I have a pipe-dan that I'm 95% sure is Holbek. However, it needs a new stem and it isn't...

    Replacement Stems

    Briarworks or Briarville? They are two different things. I don't think works does repairs. I have had a stem made by Brairville a very very very very long time ago. Work was prompt.

    Man, I wish I could have gone to Vegas this year. It just wasn't in the budget for us. Next year, though, I had a blast in 2023.

    Show Us Your Knife (And Pipe)

    I carried today my custom shop Buck 110 knife, it's difficult to make it out in the photo, but the handle is blue. My wife got one too in the 112 model. We got these custom-made for ourselves as wedding gifts (it doubled as her something new and something blue). As far as the pipe, I'm taking my...

    The red one doesn't look like briar to me. Personally, I don't smoke pipes if I don't know what wood they are made out of. For the Ben Wade, there are different periods of makers for that name. It appears that you have a London-made era. http://www.pipephil.eu/logos/en/logo-benwade.html
