    Supply Issues 12/11/2020

    I am not having problems ( more than one day at most ) with any other shipper , but my order shipped 12/2 is still in the wind and Sm#nkingpipes told me I have to wait until the 23rd to do anything about it.

    Peretti - No. 8 Slice (Flake)

    I like it , This is one of only 2 flakes they make in house . I confirmed in the store that the others are McCelland they also said they are straight from the bag no additional processing so I just buy the McC now. #8 is more of a crumble cake since they don't have a steam press - the addition...

    Teaching my son to smoke a pipe?

    I started a year ago and learned the hard way. Don't start with an aro , he will over puff and get tongue burn . Medium english works well . I would avoid Va since most straight VA requires some experience to avoid bite. Frog Morton or White Knight would work .

The proportions and design of this panel show his level of craftsmanship.I had the first smoke in it and it is going to be a dedicated Va/Per pipe. Joe was great to work with and...

    Most and Least Favourite Carvers and Why

    My Thoughts: Favorite Clark Layton - Clark is a great guy to work with and he pipes smoke like a dream. I am the current title holder of the largest Layton collection with 7 of his creations. His pipes smoke very open and he can make anything you can dream up for a great price. I keep a...

    Breaking in a new pipe that has stain inside the bowl

    Not all Petersons are dip stained - the more expensive ones are free of any stain in the bowl. I would not smoke a dip stained pipe.
