    How Would you Value your Pipes?

    I think it depends. I know I had more attachment to my first pipe, which sadly burnt out. With current pipes it sort of depends. I had a nice Nording Hunter pipe that helped me get through some tough times, that was a nice pipe. I currently have a meerschaum that I use so I can smoke multiple...

    Peder Jeppesen Pipe Quality

    Hello Everyone! I was looking for some advice on Peder Jeppesen pipes. I really like some of the shapes of these pipes, but I am wondering about the quality. Some of them are listed at $300-400. Does anyone here strongly recommend them? I'm particularly interested in some of his more unusual...

    Yeah that actually is a pretty good deal! I saw that this morning when I got up, and kicked myself a little for not placing a bid on there. If I had though I would have set my max higher and might have paid more which I wouldn't have been happy with.

    wow! Amazing set! Nice find. Yes it could be that design is more desirable. I think I might as well stay off eBay and just post on the forum here lol! Have you smoked it yet? Or is it more of a collector's piece?

    Mark Twain Peterson

    Oh thanks! I see the price there. That's what I was hoping to find to see if it's worth it or not. I think it's an awesome set but not if I have to spend a ton on it.

    Mark Twain Peterson

    Yeah I'm thinking of doing that. The last thing I want to do is get up early and try and outbid someone at the last moment. I'm about 10 hours ahead of the end time on that auction so it means getting up super early. No thanks lol!

    I see. Well, it's not mine. I didn't consider I would be redirecting traffic away from people selling here. I don't see how to remove a thread. Can a moderator delete this then if it is going to hurt someone else bidding? Sorry if I did that. I just wanted to know what I would need to put down...

    Mark Twain Peterson

    I don't know sadly what is was when it came out. That's what I was hoping to find out here. I think it's supposed to be the type of pipe Mark Twain smoked. There's some pictures of him smoking with one of those types of pipes. The other one I guess commemorates Huck Finn or something from Tom...

    I see I'm wondering what the price was when it first came out. Why is it frowned on?

    https://www.ebay.com/itm/203800315118?_trksid=p2471758.m4704 It's unsmoked and some type of orange finish.

    Mark Twain Peterson

    Hello there, I saw a Mark Twain Peterson set from 2010 on eBay. I'm thinking of bidding on it but I am wondering what a fair price would be. It's up to about $500 now. Would this set be worth $600 you think or more? I'm not opposed to paying more for a nice pipe, and a bit more for a set. I'm...

    In Praise Of Water Rinsing a Briar Pipe

    Has anyone tried water rinsing a silver capped pipe? When I rinse I have no issues but it gets all over the outside of the bowl. Will it mess up a Peterson silver capped pipe at all? I'm imagining some water will get in between where it was capped and onto the rim and wondering if that will...

    AKB Yellow Coloration in New Pipe?

    I never tried Captain Black before and it was the only thing in the local store here. I also got some MacBaren Choice. I was actually pretty happy with it, vanila and cocoa in the CB Dark, not bad actually. How is the grape? They have that too but I wasn't sure about trying it.

    AKB Yellow Coloration in New Pipe?

    I may just buy one of those peterson maker's series and take a pic with Captain Black in it only for the sake of trolling on here . . .

    AKB Yellow Coloration in New Pipe?

    Oh I see, didn't realize they coat the inside of the bowl as well. It's only my second Meerschaum. In the IMP tonight I put through some captain black dark, Blairgowrie, and some Balkan Flake. It was quite a nice night.

    AKB Yellow Coloration in New Pipe?

    Title edited. -jpm Hi All, I picked up a new pipe from AKB Meerschaum. I noticed some dust inside the bowl, which I did not get with my IMP Meerschaum pipe. Upon closer examination I noticed a yellow coloration on the inside of the bowl and stem. Is that normal for AKB? It's new and...
