    Order from KBV Held Up by USPS for Two Weeks?

    For what it's worth, I just received an order from KBV from May 1. Stuck in that Twilight Zone USPS warehouse I suppose. Funny, I received another order that was sent a week later. That one only took a few days to get here.

    Sadly, nothing here in the area in terms of pipe tobacco. Such is life. Hit me up if you are looking to try some different tobaccos. I've got a pretty wide variety and happy to share some samples before you buy.

    Dunhill OXS Bulldog... Busted Dot

    Picked up a few pipes today, including this Dunhill OXS bulldog. Dating is tough as the markings are barely visible. Super excited as it has great birdseye grain. It will clean up nicely. Only challenge here is the dot is busted or missing. Guessing I will need to send that out for repair...

    First Time Trying Frog Morton Cellar

    Hey Austin.... when you swing by, remind me of this. I've got a little over half a tin that you are welcome to have. Somehow I ended up with 2 open tins and I don't smoke this one all that much.
