    ***What Are You Smoking, Nov. 2024?***

    Rain has slowed but still plenty wet. I've rubbed out a bowl of Gawith FVF "Aged Limited Edition" and lovingly packed it in to the Sam Adebayo bent.

    Rainy mornings are the pits! Totally throws off my morning rituals. Porch smokes it is (for the time being)- Steamworks in the Barling Straight Grain from James J Fox. (Photos by Dibos)

    A Progress Report

    Absolutely hate hearing that you're dealing with any pain at all, Jesse. We can all agree the back/spinal issues are the worst. It's a hard pill to swallow- aging and knowing that any day we can wake up, roll out of bed, and be met with any number of ridiculous ailments. Hopefully you're...

    Show Us Your Knife (And Pipe)

    Cor blimey gov! That snappiness when opening and closing is what is lovingly referred to as "walk and talk". Had yourself quite a conversation.. It happens to all of us, regardless of years of experience. Just a few weeks ago I was doing some cleaning and lubing and before I knew it, I was...

    Favorite Vapor Coin

    I just opened a tin of Charatan Rolls last night. It's currently decanting at home.. They certainly look impressive. I brought a couple coins to work with me today- I may rub them out on my lunch break.

    W.O. Larsen 1st Era (Copenhagen) Purchase

    Though a direct translation to English doesn't make much sense, I've seen the term "Dickwandiger" used to describe various types of "pipe bowl" or "pipe chamber"- including those of a hookah and of glass water pipes. Ahem.

    Who's Going to the Muletown Pipe Show in TN, in March?

    Just bought a pass yesterday. It will be my first Muletown since the inaugural year.

    ***What Are You Smoking, Nov. 2024?***

    I jarred a box of Gawith Best Brown in late 2016. I opened one of the jars for the first time yesterday- wanted to gauge how much it had changed in 8 years. Perhaps a bit better than I expected.. another 3-4 years should render the remaining jars ideal. For now, I'll enjoy this jar of 2016...

    Show Us Your Knife (And Pipe)

    Just received my new Rafa Trentin pocket puukko. A carbon steel counterpart to my original- this one is forged from 52100, with a dark green Micarta handle. Can't wait to put it to work today and see how it compares to the original in 14C28N.
