    Didn't Worry About Packing and Guess What?

    Want to weigh in to say, after twenty years of pipe smoking, the best packing method is what ever keeps the pipe going, your work flowing, and your heart knowing that any pipe with tobacco in it is a blessing.

    Leaf Only in a Jar

    @OzPiper Yes, Cosmic is right, sorry, Leaf Only is the name of the site! I plan to order more. It was a good experience. I wish I could remember which two kinds I got but I know one was a bright leaf and the other red. Probably not much help since there are so many variations! @Chasing Embers I...

    Leaf Only in a Jar

    I recently opened a jar of a couple of Leaf Only Virginias that I had roped up together last year. No casing. No treatments. It smelled incredible. And, like many have reported on this forum, it had quite a bit of the “ketchup smell” that I so loved with McClelland blends. It was amazing to...

    Comoy’s With Five Digits

    Ah thanks!

    Comoy’s With Five Digits

    I’ve noticed a few Comoy’s with five digits instead of 2, 3, or 4. I’ve googled and googled and searched this and other forums but can’t seem to find any info on them. Does anyone have an idea about these?

    ***What Are You Smoking, May 2024?***

    Full Virginia Flake, first smoke, in my newly cleaned up KBB Yello-Bole sandblasted shape #82 with an Ambera stem.

    Almost Threw This Away

    Update: I moved it out of the jar and into a different tin to carry with me on a trip. When I opened that back up a few days later there was a definitive smell or mold. :( Tossed!

    Almost Threw This Away

    Aged Stonehaven that I thought was molded… I put it out in the sun and could see crystals everywhere. I’m still a little iffy about it because, when not in the sunlight, it just looks like white streaks of that which shall not be named. In terms of the smell test, it’s hard to say. The Esoterica...

    Metal Bands and Caps

    Here is a product I’m considering. Flat nickel strips. I could cut and solder them.

    Comoy Rescue

    Whoa! @RustiePyles CPG those look incredible.

    Metal Bands and Caps

    I have checked the Forum for this discussion and, while I've come across a few posts, I just have a hunch there might be more specific information available from the collective group here that's worth conjuring up. Maybe not, but it's worth a shot. I'm not a pipe repair man but lately I've...

    Show Off Your Kaywoodie Pipes

    Been working on cleaning up this KBB Yello-Bole with a beautiful stem! Can’t wait to smoke it. The unique shank and the stem are two favorite parts. Based on the info in another thread I think it’s in the 1932-1940s.

    Jim's SG Burnt Ends Review.

    About three bowls in and I agree. FVF is my desert island tobacco and so I wanted to try this. It’s certainly different than FVF… not so much in flavor as burn tendency and nuance. A strange thought I had when smoking this was: this is a much lighter Va version of Ken Byron’s “Byronic Hiro.”...

    Zippo Yellow Flame Pipe Insert

    This is my experience with exactly. If you want to use a zippo plus butane, the newer zippo-made brand inserts are the best I’ve found. Zpipe and Thunderbird simply didn’t last and I tried multiples of them. Apart from an old boy, the new zippo brand inserts easily get my vote.

    Which Luxury Lighter?

    In my experience this is an easy answer: IM corona old boy 100%. And, by the way, I don’t think I’ve ever read or heard that Kiribi was more durable than IM Corona lighters,,. Reading that in the comments above was a first for me.

    Merchant Service Bing

    Can anyone clarify whether there are any MS Bing pipes available right now?
