    Show off Your Meerschaum Claws Here!

    One I picked up from rebornpipes. Steve replaced the original stem and the new stem really suits the pipe.

    Amazing carvings, left unsmoked?

    All my meers have been smoked. I have one briar I haven’t gotten around to smoking but I buy my pipes to smoke. None of mine are in the collectable, don’t smoke category, nothing that valuable.

    This is Why they Call it "Missouri Meerschaum".

    Congratulations on kicking the habit. Now you can thoroughly enjoy your pipes.

    First live pipe smoker

    Was at the mall food court today (which is a very rare event). At a large table of people visiting, an old gentleman pulls out a pipe and loads it from a leather pouch. A bit later he goes outside with his pipe, is gone for 15 minutes and returns. The pipe was a nice straight sandblast. Nice to...

    Great looking pipe and the colouring is coming along nicely. Thanks for the update.

    200 Smokes in the Owl

    The difference between 100 and 200 is interesting. I like how some of the subtle details are being coloured in.

    Missouri Meerschaum Shank Crack

    I have a crack like that in one of my emerald cobs and it hasn’t been smoked a lot. I’m not too concerned, adds character.

    Best with Coffee...

    Coffee is my beverage of choice with a pipe…and I haven’t had a tobacco that didn’t match well yet.

    Smoking without a Filter

    I haven’t really noticed a difference between filtered and non-filtered pipes. I sometimes get ash at the end if I am distracted and don’t realize the bowl is done and take a larger draw. I second the sipping. You won’t get ash with either if you don’t draw too hard.

    Acquired BBB Pipe Without a Stem......

    Amazing story, glad you were able to source a stem. Great to hear about companies that really care about what they do and customers. Thanks for sharing. I have several vintage BBB pipes in my collection. I’m sure you will enjoy this one!

    Souvenirs or PAD?

    That is awesome! Pipes I have bought while travelling hold a special spot in my collection.

    Any Tea Drinkers?

    I enjoy a variety of teas although I am no connoisseur. I tend to take them without milk or sugar. Lately I have been drinking Genmaicha a lot. It is a comforting, nutty tea.

    New Meers

    You can use these to work your way up to a Rich Esserman sized pipe. Very nice training pipes.

    Meers are very Durable, Not Fragile - Discuss

    I have found them to be quite durable. I agree with the degree of carving and angle of impact. I think age might be a factor, I have some older ones that have chipped.

    Got a package from Turkey...

    Congratulations, a nice example of classic shape.

    No Electronic Devices When Smoking A Pipe

    With you on this one, I seldom turn the radio on when driving. Will turn it on if traffic is far from normal to catch a traffic report to see if a new route is needed.

    No Electronic Devices When Smoking A Pipe

    I don’t smoke too often so when I do I usually unplug. It is my time to decompress. I enjoy my surroundings but try not to over focus on the pipe smoking technique. The more I just let that happen the smoother it goes. Decompressing from striving for pipe smoking perfection too!

    Smoking Larger Pipes

    I also had a pipe from the factory that was completely blocked, had a small piece of metal in it.

    If You Could Have Only One...

    For me it would be a Baki meerschaum, still trying to find and buy one but I will love it when I find one. The tobacco would be PS Proper English.
