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

    FVF Burnt Ends in a Wiley. Finishing a Banana Daiquiri made with both light and dark rum. The dark rum gives it a richer flavor.

    You can't say disabled, it's "earning challenged." :LOL:

    Here are two Old Timers. A Schrade 150T Deer Slayer and a 1946 Dunhill Shell. Both working just fine thank you. Exotique is the weed of choice.

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

    Pipe Force II in a Viprati. I've had this blend awhile. A friend won one of the bricks at the Chicago show. Jim's review reminded me that I had some of that brick jarred up. Red Breast 12 Year on the side.

    Thank you. He was a fellow piper who owned several tobacco shops here in Denver in the 70's and early 80's I believe. Some health issues unrelated to smoking caught up with him in the past year. I hope he's puffing on a perfect Dunhill in the great smoking lounge in the sky, where every brand...

    Geometrie in a Wiley with coffee on the side. Heading to a friend's memorial service in a bit. Not a fun Friday.

    Just when I said "who NEEDS another knife", I order another knife. Knife Works had the Civivi M2 Backup for $40. Can't beat that with a stick. For that money it's a knife I'll throw in a pack as a, well, backup. D2 blade in a stout .16 thickness, G10 grips and a Kydex sheath. What's not to like ?

    I missed fixed blade Friday, so I'm either late or early for the next one. This is the Spyderco K294 Mule. I put some olive canvas micarta scales on it and can't wait to get it in the field this summer camping and fishing, then hunting in the fall. Pipe is a Ferndown lovat with Samarra 20th...

    Well honestly, who NEEDS another knife ? :ROFLMAO: Juha's blades are interesting because the spine is 50HRC, but he hardens the edge to 63HRC.

    Juha's knives and many other puukkoes can be found on lamnia.com.

    Not custom, but affordable puukko from Juha Perttula. Almost forgot I owned the thing till someone said puukko. Pipe is a Philip Trypis egg with Cobblestone Kentucky Plug. Old Grand-Dad Bonded with a trio of Luxardo cherries on the rocks. God I love Fridays !

    Is this the point when you tell us it's actually a Bo Nordh ? That you were yanking our chains all along ?

    My PM2 in CruWear and Micarta, fans know it as the CruCarta. I hesitated buying a PM2 thinking it a bit big for EDC, but it rides fine. So fine that I bought another in S90V. The pipe is a Poul Hansen pot, currently filled with Old Gowrie.

    Peterson Irish Cask in a Pete. Heading off to a friend's house for dinner, then an evening of Pitch.

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

    Yorktown in a Wiley. Cracked this fresh (2/24) tin Saturday and it had no flavor. Today it seems like it's starting to wake up, but I can already tell that a couple three years age would be helpful in smoothing it out some.

    Smoking, Grilling, and BBQ

    I mostly use Costco for brisket because they are cheaper than almost anyone. They sell Prime for $3.50-4.00/lb. for packers. Since COVID the supply of Prime has been spotty. I spent big bucks on a Snake River Farms and then promptly overcooked it when I used the wrong probes in my thermometer...

    Smoking, Grilling, and BBQ

    I probably have 100 briskets under my belt now, but wouldn't dare to use the word pitmaster. Still learning with every one I put on the pit. If you follow the basic rules as outlined by Aaron Franklin and others, you will produce a damn good brisket. It's that last 5% of knowledge that those...
