    Anyone know this maker?

    It looks like it says Arimo Rossi. That's that's all my old eyes can make out. Any ideas?

    Check out Boswell's too. There's a lot of choices that you can try in small quantities to sample

    Cleaning inside of stems

    I recently picked up an estate and normally do an alcohol and salt cleaning and clean the stem with alcohol and pipe cleaners. I've put about 25 through this stem and they are still coming out brown! Is there a better way other than a retort? Right now I have a pipe cleaner soaked in alcohol...

    Any Advice on Quitting Cigarettes?

    I still have a couple cigarettes a day right now but after starting and truly enjoying pipe smoking I no longer smoke the 30+ a day. Some days I actually go without a cigarette

    My First Pipe Recommendation

    Being a new pipe smoker myself, what do you normally notice when going from say an inexpensive cob or briar to a more expensive better quality pipe? Is it something a new smoker will feel or know when smoking a better pipe?

    The Most Disappointing Tobacco

    I love Cult blood red moon. I was looking for a less expensive tobacco similar to it and read that Scotty's Bass pond was close. I tried it and found zero similarity in taste. That was disappointing

    Please Help Identify a Dr. Grabow

    Does Dr Grabow sometimes not put their logo on the pipe itself? I recently picked up a lot of 7 Belvideres and two are identical but one of the two has no markings at all on it. It does have the spade on the stem and it's an adjustomatic.

    New Pipe Smoker: Tobacco Choices

    I took the advice that was given and recently received several different tobaccos to try. I enjoyed the Orlik Golden Slices. Surprisingly I really like Half & Half too. I picked up a couple from Boswell's and enjoyed them. I'm really liking changing things up too rather than just smoking the...

    Smoking My Rarely Smoked Pipes

    Pipe buying and collecting is addictive!! I just got into this recently, like maybe two months ago.

    Best of the berries?

    I'm just a newbie but Cult BRM has been my favorite so far. I haven't had the opportunity yet to try a lot of others but I'm working on it!

    MM Hickory wood pipes

    Thanks. Using that info I found that I have a MM cob from the post WW2 era maybe 1950's. It looks like a Legend model

    Accidental Stain on Stummel.

    I have a Dr. Grabow wire cut belvedere that I did a salt and alcohol cleaning on. Some of the tobacco stained alcohol spilled on to the exterior gray finish and brown stained it. What would be the safest way to remove the stain?
