    What Are You Smoking? *February 2013*

    My first ever bowl of Penzance in an Upshall billiard. It's fresh out of the bag; couldn't wait for it to dry. There's some drying for later tonight.

    Grenadilla Wood Anyone?

    I never heard of it being used for pipes. As others have said, t is used for woodwind instruments, especially clarinets. It is in the Dalbergia (Rosewood) family. Other Rosewoods have been used for pipes. I have one and it smokes okay, but hot. One source of information online said that it has a...

    Thoughts on What to do Next? eBay Order

    The Postal Service tracking is almost totally useless. I have had stuff that Indicated "accepted" at our statewide distribution center. Meanwhile, I'm unpacking the box it came in 15 minutes ago. In some cases, I called my servicing branch and they told me it's out for delivery, a different...

    Monday Night Fights II: Frog Morton OTB vs SPC Plum Pudding

    This post brings to mind Steve Wright's joke about getting a humidifier and a dehumidifer. "I put them in the same room and let them fight it out.'

    Are You a Right or a Left?

    I am left handed and hold the pipe with my left hand and on the left side of my mouth when smoking. When I light up, I hold the match with my left hand, center the pipe in my mouth and hold it with my right hand. As a kid, I played sports left handed, but when I played around on guitar, I did...

    Dunhill Purchase

    It's a nice looking pipe and looks in good shape from the pictures. I think you did well. I don't know if you noticed, but If you look at the pipe's nomenclature, you will see the number 6 after the word England and to the right of that, the number 9, just just touching the circle around the...

    If You had to Choose...

    For old time's sake, Patterson's Mixture in my Dunhill Root Briar Lovat. The Owl Shop in New Haven shipped it to me in 1963, when I was overseas in the service and I had them keep me stocked up with Patterson's during my tour.

    How's This for a Pipe?

    It's a great example of the Art Deco style. I'm not a metal pipe fan, but saw one them on EBay a few months ago and was almost tempted to bid on it because of the look of it.

    What's the General Consensus on Savory Pipes?

    Stig, it's not always just marketing. I don't know anything about the Savory brand, but I have two no names that I know are Charatan from the shape, some Comoy seconds and a pre Republic Peterson Shamrock. All are at least good if not great smoking pipes. I bought a Town Hall, a Comoy second...
