Peterson Castle Line Question
Yesterday I got what I believe to be a good deal on an unused pipe from the Peterson Castle line, the "Malahide" shape in rusticated finish. While the pipe is unused it had obviously sat in the shop for a while, as the silver band was badly tarnished. When I got it home and cleaned it up, I... -
Chacom billiard pipe?
I hate to be a nitpicker and I also hate to hijack this thread. That being said I also hate to see historical inaccuracies. @gunnar I see you took that discription from SPC so this is not directed towards you. Napoleon's final defeat was in 1815 at the battle of Waterloo, after that he was... -

Pipe smokers in Jax, FL.
I visited tobacco cove today and had a very pleasant experience there. Had some time to kill (in J-ville on business) and googled nearby pipe stores. Turned out I was 5 minutes away. Had a great pipe conversation. Picked up a new tamper...and a tin of 2007 Xmas cheer!- garyovich

What Are You Smoking?(August 2012)
Just got off work and smoking the first bowl out of my brand new Winslow Crown partially rusticated bent apple. I picked it up at my local B&M today, their new stock from the Orlando show is starting to trickle in. Smoking Sherlock's Choice, it's going to be a Latakia dedicated smoker.- garyovich

Further Down The Rabbit Hole Then I Intended
In my experience, the clinical side and real friends each have a place, and a roll. You're never alone. Not sure if I'm allowed to pm yet or not, but you can hit me up anytime.- garyovich

What Are You Smoking?(August 2012)
Monday night football, enjoying a Young's Double Chocolate Stout. Smoking MacB's VA#1 out of a Sav 804 dressed in alligator green. A very nice combination, the chocolate stout and VA complement each other's sweetness beautifully. Not sure which improves the other more.- garyovich

New Stem for a Missouri Meerschaum Cob Pipe. Worth it?
Yup, forever stems are completely worth it. "one size fits all" is not exactly accurate. They are made specifically to fit MMs shanks. When I ordered mine I was amazed how fast they arrived, then amazed again at the fit, and how much they changed the character of my cobs. Top notch product.- garyovich

SmokingPipes.com is doing it right
I agree, first rate customer service. They have taken additional pictures of pipes I was interested in and emailed them to me on a few pipes I was interested in. I also like their descriptions. I have ordered pipes from them that I found cheaper on other sites. I will gladly pay for customer...- garyovich

How long have you been smoking a pipe?
I've been smoking this one for about 30 minutes and it is delicious. Well seasoned nording freehand, half perique half Latakia. Doesn't smell nice though.- garyovich

Pipe Cleaning Day!!!
Me too, sitting down with a large bowl of Pete's Summertime in a Karl Erik freehand to watch "Safe House" and clean all the pipes I smoked this week. Sunday is normally "take the dogs to the beach day", but the fringe of a tropical storm is blowing in so it's a good day to stay inside.- garyovich

A new Peterson—was I expecting too much?
For what it's worth, I recently ordered a new Racing Green 999, it has several (4or5) fills. The black fills really stand out against the green finish. However it is a fantastic smoker with some really nice cross grain and birds-eye. Is it a perfect $130 pipe...nope. Is it a good smoker that is...- garyovich

You're Not Going To Believe this!
WOW! I live on the beach, and make walking on the beach while smoking something of an every evening ritual. I've never had any type of an adverse reaction. If I ever do in the future I hope I can handle it with the level of aplomb that you apparantly did. Hope you get your pipe back dude!- garyovich

My growing "collection"
I also like your zippo, but I'm curious does it take the same size insert as a modern zippo? I have the 1941 (possibly 1947 I have to look) replica in sterling silver. It's insert is not at all interchangeable with modern zippos, the angles on the corners are different. Great looking Pete's... -
