    Love those bowling ball stem Dunhills. A fellow forum member gifted me one and it’s one of my favorite pipes. Go tend to your field with the hobbits @Ahi Ka. Go along now.

    ***What Are You Smoking, November 2022?***

    For my Halloween smoke I am smoking my brand new Ashton Brindle Billiard 222 Sterling Silver I got from Jimmy Craig at the Vegas Pipe Show, loaded with vintage Dunhill Ultra Mild mixed with vintage Mick McQuaid. What an incredible pipe and smoking experience. Jimmy’s pipes must be some of the...

    What did you guys all get? I got a Former, an Ashton from Jimmy Craig, vintage Dunhill tobacco, McClelland No. 24 and another McClelland Virginia I can’t recall, and some pipe lighters. Great show.

    Calling All You Historian Detective Guys --- True Mystery Dunhill

    I asked Yang about the pipe. Here is what he says @georged 5 digit shape numbers was added in 1976 and ended in 1984. 5 (group/size). 16 shape (bent chimney) & 1 first variation. That 1 after 5 is for mouthpiece. In that case, standard for the shape.

    The Las Vegas Intl Pipe Show 2022

    That could certainly be a part of it. I got my tickets for the Golden Knights game that Saturday, but haven’t booked a hotel yet.

    McClelland Dilemma - To try or Not?

    I wanted to get into pipe smoking shortly before McClelland closed, and ended up getting into it about two months after they closed in 2018. I remember looking to buy some when I first got into it (as my brother had told me about how cool their blend names were), and the Frog Morton series...

    I have a large Wusthof Ikon collection (Blackwood, Classic, and Crème handles), along with some from the Epicure line, and a set of Legende steak knives. If you have any questions just send me a message or let me know in here. I am a big fan. You do not want the Gourment line, you want the...

    Golden Age of Pipe Tobacco

    Yeah, I think it was Shane Ireland @shaneireland and/or someone else at Smoking Pipes on a podcast saying that we are living in the golden age of pipe tobacco. And it’s funny, because less people smoke a pipe these days but it’s absolutely true. We are in the golden age of pipe smoking. There...

    Peterson 2022 POY (14B)

    Can’t stand those stems that look like they aren’t fully inserted. Personal opinion.

    R.I.P. Q Lazzarus

    Weird. I was just reading up on her disappearance a few days ago and what seemed to be her unconfirmed reappearance a few years ago.

    Recent visit to Iwan Ries

    Awesome, I want to visit one day. My local cigar lounge is owned by a guy who worked at Iwan Ries. (He also has a second lounge with bar and restaurant that his wife runs.) The guy is very well connected in the industry.

    Bowl Coatings….Why!?

    I am guessing that they are afraid of fast smokers charring the insides and complaining about the pipe being low quality. So they put a bowl coating on. Some people stand by bowl coatings and are adamant that they cause no difference in taste after a couple of smokes, so why risk not having a...
