    Yikes -- Did I kill my Pete?

    And there you have it folks. Haruki Murakami fans.

    Bill Taylor Pipes

    The first Ashton I bought (online, without holding in hand first) had a stem that wasn't even vaguely in line with the shank - it looked as though it belonged to an entirely different pipe. The Jimmy Craig I have, however (only my third Ashton, including that first dud) is rather nice. It's the...

    The 2015 Esoterica Sales Fraud Incident

    So what's up with Motzek Strang

    James Upshall Pipes - A Discussion

    Scanning this thread again - I'd love to hear more about the women of pipe making history. Pipes often feel like kind of a man's game, but it is refreshing to hear that women may have played a strong hand in the creation of some of the most premiere and classic British pipes.

    James Upshall Pipes - A Discussion

    Someone in this thread mentioned remembering a couple old unsmoked Upshalls at pipe stores he knew... it struck me that I knew of one too. I looked at it almost ten years ago now but bought a straight apple instead which I later, stupidly, sold. This was an old news stand / pipe shop that has...

    Ehrlich's Valuation?

    Probably not a ton, but Ehrlichs have been listed on eBay for quite a lot lately.

    Sell me a Dunhill.

    Peretti's just had a Dunhill trunk show, I did not attend. There was a Dunhill salesman there, I guess. I've had maybe six or seven Dunhills pass through my racks and the only thing I've liked about them is their resale value. I don't knock pipes due to price - I'm a Castello guy, which is...

    Samuel Gawith FVF water content!

    Interesting, Peck! I got on to SG flakes maybe 8-10 years ago and early on I learned that England has a regulation on the amount of water by weight that can be in tobacco. I think ~25%, if memory serves. I always thought it was a smart way to stretch product...

    Glad to have you on board Ken. Fascinating story. I'm sorry to see Upshall go.

    War Horse Bar Prototype Arrived Today!

    I'm into it. Looking forward to trying it. Have you released pricing yet? Do you have a rough ETA for release? Happy to be a taste tester too (THIS IS A SUBTLE HINT) ;)

    Motzek Strang Group Buy Update

    Thanks for the heads up!

    Strang Group Buy Interest Thread

    Based on its components I think there's a strong chance I'll like it, and if I don't, I know some folks who do and wouldn't mind getting a nice gift. The concept of it never being available again also plays a strong role in the quantities people order. That said, I don't disagree, this order is...

    Radice Buttons Breaking - Coincidence?

    I actually had a Bonfiglioli this happened to as well, a white acrylic stem.

    Radice Buttons Breaking - Coincidence?

    So what do people use to clean acrylic stems if not alcohol? I mostly avoid using alcohol, though recently did a thorough cleaning of all my pipes (pretty much all acrylic stems) and did use it. I rinsed them with water after to get it off quickly, though...

    Michael Parks Trouter Pipe - Pic Heavy

    It's absolutely gorgeous and I'd love to have one. Whether or not I'd risk it on the river is another question. A couple/few years ago I actually emailed him to ask about it and pricing. The pipe is $1,500 and the tamper is $250. Outside of my current budget, but maybe I'll save my pennies...

    I'm interested in 300g, rope preferably but happy with whatever is available.

    Ehrlich appreciation page (pic heavy)

    I used to have a small handful of these but sold them off for various reasons. Coincidentally, I just won this unsmoked Ehrlich on ebay as I'd been looking for a good one to have one back in my collection.

    Sept 2015 Smokingpipes.com Upgrade

    I do not like the new site, at all, and it will impact the frequency I visit. Too much stuff going on, too hard to get at what I'm interested in, seems a mess UI wise. I work in tech and am sure I qualify as a hipster - this isn't the opinion of an elderly gent ;)
