    Interesting Completed Ebay Auctions - British Pipes

    Ya, it went for some decent money last time. Cool pipe.

    My Long M&T Pipe Story

    I’ll start with pictures, and show you the pipe I’m talking about. I bought this pipe via eBay abiut 2 years ago. It came from a seller in Israel, and we had talked back and forth about the pipe and haggled a bit and finally reached a bargain. I got the pipe and it was filthy and...

    Training Myself to Smoke Cooler

    Try a pair of Ray-Bans. Everyone is a little cooler wearing the classic Wayfarer design. In reality I don’t have any good advice, other than suggesting perhaps you could pack the chamber a bit differently?

    Italian Pipes: Just my Style?

    Everyone knows the best briar is harvested by blind albino pygmies late at night (so as to avoid the sun) in the land of fog and stench and then cured for 7.75 years with a special whale dung compote to ensure the best smoking briar for all consumers. Anything less is second tier and bad practice.

    The Love of Small Pipes

    I’m guessing that’s a three to four hour (smoke time) chamber in that pipe? Am I close?

    ***What Are You Smoking, March 2024?***

    Typically I smoke tobacco in a pipe, but if you want to smoke a pipe in your tobacco, that’s cool too. 😀

    Italian Pipes: Just my Style?

    Just so you know that I am not an unpatriotic kind of guy, I do own pipes made in the good ole USA also. 🇺🇸

    Italian Pipes: Just my Style?

    I’ve been smoking a pipe since September of 2021, so please know I am a relatively new smoker compared with most of you. The first “name” pipes I pursued were Charatan, and I like classic Brit pipes in general largely because of the traditional styling and quality build on many of them. My...

    Do You have a Pipe You can’t Bring Yourself to Smoke?

    Does the other side of the bowl have similar grain on the Nachwalter? It’s a very nice looking pipe, the grain fits the shape so well.

    Do You have a Pipe You can’t Bring Yourself to Smoke?

    I had a couple of unsmoked pipes I couldn’t seem to bring myself to break in, with different reasons for each pipe. I finally sold them both and bought pipes I wanted to smoke with the money. I don’t mind collecting things, but I just preferred to roll that money into the pipe/tobacco budget.

    Don Mock Pipe Availability?

    I just finished a bowl in this Don Mock pipe and I decided I’d really like another one (another Mock pipe, I’ll hold off on another bowl for a bit). I’ve been watching the usual internet locations for a while, but they just don’t seem to come up for sale very often. Any chance you guys know...

    The Four Hundred Marxman Pipe Owner's Thread

    Second time posted for this one. I posted it a while back on this thread and then changed my mind about it and sold it to smokingpipes. Glad to see it found the right home!

    ***What Are You Smoking, March 2024?***

    My first run in this new (to me) Mastro de Paja with some Elizabethan Mixture.

    Comoy’s Three Part C Sanding

    I have recently picked up a couple of Comoy’s Tradition pipes that have oxidation on the stems. Both pipes have the three part C. I’m only showing a pic of one of them, but the condition is very similar on both. Is there anything I need to know before sanding the area with the three part C on...

    My Four Favorite Tampers

    I’ve never sanded it, but I do spend some time polishing mine as well. That little “spoon” on the end makes it great for nasal snuff also.

    My Four Favorite Tampers

    8deco, their lowest price model. I like it fine but just a tiny bit too big for my cobs.

    My Four Favorite Tampers

    “popped like a grape” made me wince, that must have sucked!
