    Effects of Altitude on Smoking Certain Blends?

    As someone who lives in a high altitude desert climate (6,040 ft above sea level, in the Rockies of Colorado), and who often travels up and down the mountains with a pipe, I can tell you that I never felt any effects from altitude. Things like air humidity, weather conditions, type of pipe...

    Show Us Your Knife (And Pipe)

    Another small slip joint today. It's a custom by knife maker S. Buzek, which used bowling ball material to craft its scales.

    Opening A Tin? Show Us!

    I'm way overdue, here. Low Country Carolina Christmas from 2008. I believe this was the first release of this blend.

    There are so many Benchmades posted here that I had to get one of mine, too.

    Show Us Your Knife (And Pipe)

    Love this old Remington Bullet Muskrat. It's from the 80s, maybe earlier, but I found it in its original box with documentation and wrapped in the original oiled paper, so I had to have it. Faux stag, though.

    Show Us Your Knife (And Pipe)

    The Last of How it Was

    Sorry for your loss. I guess I'm a lucky guy...

    Small, Medium, Large Tins Or Bulk Preference

    I only buy packaged tobacco, i.e., tobacco that has been sealed at the factory. Tins or bags, doesn't really matter, as long as they are adequate to preserve the contents.

    Opening A Tin? Show Us!

    GLP Westminster from 2008. Tip: if you have one of this type of tins with a plastic lid, use some tin foil to improve seal and help preserving the best qualities of the aged tobacco. Plastic alone is not enough.

    It's not a doll, it's an action figure. :)

    Watch Out or Watch on? Pt 2.

    Actually, I forgot I also have this watch: I have no idea what led me to it. Must have been drunk. I'm a minimalist guy and all I ever carry is a (minimalist) wallet and a set of keys. Don't even carry a cell phone that often...

    Watch Out or Watch on? Pt 2.

    I don't like jewelry, including things around my wrists, therefore I never got into watches. The only ones that I have are well worn, even beat up. The black one is a lady's watch, because I don't like large watches. And no leather or cloth bracelets for me, either.

    Double Edged Razor Blades

    I use all kinds of razors, but when using double edge blades I prefer the Personna blue box and the Kai. The Astra in the background are also good, but I don't use them anymore. Hated the Voskhods. Threw these two away immediately after taking this pic for the forums.

    Clan tobacco 2010

    Well, I smoked a lot it. Obviously, I liked it enough. However, the shag cut used to dry very quickly, at which time it would burn like gun powder. Care is advisable. I haven't smoked it in more than 20 years, therefore I can't say how it is now. But I doubt it will age well. Please let us know...

    A Nachwalter Score

    That is a gorgeous pipe. I always loved Elliott's designs and looked for one for many years, but without success. Unfortunately, my search only started after he quit making pipes. Hope you enjoy your new pipe/work of art.

    Ennerdale Flake

    All I can say is that I loved the old one and hated the new one. All I can say is that I found the flavor different for the worse. Sorry I cannot be more specific.
