    Are tobacco reviews really of much value?

    The ones that really get me are the ones who taste 75 different things, completely unrelated to tobacco....and 1,000,000,000% subjective and useless. "This blend tastes of freshly laundered curtains hung to dry on a breezy Summer day, and the contents of an old cedar chest in grandmothers attic...

    Show Us Your Knife (And Pipe)

    Ive had a Vosteed Raccoon Cub for awhile, and thought about the full sized Raccoon, but when I saw it came out with a clip point blade and a top liner lock, I had to get it. The top liner lock is the same as the Spiderco compression lock, but better in my opinion. It looks like a regular plunge...

    Are tobacco reviews really of much value?

    Black licorice is delicious, especially the salty stuff from the Nordic countries. Its sweet, its salty, its just fantastic!! Pair that with a cold Dr Pepper, and you have absolute bliss. If you take my review here and try these splendid delicacies, about 70% will hate me because of the...

    Cigar Collection

    Use Boveda packs or humidity beads. They will automatically bring your cigars up to the desired humidity. If they truly are at 60% now, you have no issues. Lots of guys smoke them at 60%. If they have been left without a humidity source for more than a few hours, the humidity will drop fast...

    Cigar Collection

    Lots to unpack due to not knowing the condition of the cigars. As far as if they are "good" cigars? Maybe. Thats like asking if a pipe blend is good. There are absolutely fantastic $3 cigars, and some horrible $30 cigars.....to me. One of my favorite cigars were Indian Tabac made by Rocky Patel...

    Attack Of The Pissed Off Wasps

    My wife recently reminded me of a situation her mom went through years ago. She was outside working on her new landscape. She lived in Glendale Arizona near Phoenix. She moved a flower pot when about 6 wasps attacked her. She got stung 3x. She ran for her sliding deck door, but remembered to...

    Pipestud is Begging For Help Again!

    I see JustPaul but have no idea who they are. He obviously used to work with someone else, then went on his own..... JustPaul. :)

    Autumn Evening and Similar Tobaccos

    In my experience stick with the less goopy aromatics. Many from Denmark are the best in my opinion....WO Larsen, MacBaren, and Rattrays aromatics are good too. Many of these are nearly bone dry and taste like tobacco first with a light flavor added. My all time favorite aromatic so far is Cult...

    ***What Are You Smoking, October 2025?***

    C&D Autumn Evening in the Bones Brandy. Its getting to the time of year I put the pipes away for 5 or so months. Its was 31 degrees when I woke up this morning. Its warmed to a balmy 52 degrees now. :(

    It Appears Lee Van Cleef's Two Most Famous Pipes Have Been Acquired

    Its not a very rare thing for stuff like this to come up. A few years ago a dude in Georgia who owned a junk yard all of a sudden had like 6-7 General Lee's from The Dukes of Hazzard tv show. Including two hero cars(close up cars they actually drove in the show, not jumpers). Lots of old tv...

    Outside Smoke Versus Inside Smoke

    I smoked inside for years. But the last few years I decided to smoke outside. This was after a remodel and new furniture. My wife is ok with me smoking inside, but it seems mean because she's a non smoker. I actually prefer smoking outside. When it gets too cold, I put the pipes away for the...

    Attack Of The Pissed Off Wasps

    Around here getting stung just goes with the territory. Now when I see a wasp nest I just ignore them unless I need what they have. Ive told the story here about the old timer who used to deliver our propane. Wasps love building their nests under the lids of the propane tanks. The old guy would...

    Rattrays composition

    Off topic a bit, but trolls just do trolling. On another forum im on there was a guy who joined who we immediately realized was a troll. We let him hang out for awhile because he was so ridiculous that we tolerated his antics....for awhile. We nicknamed him "well actually". It was even added...

    This one came out like a year or so ago. Civivi STORMHOWL (capitalized for dramatic effect) San Mai Damascus 3.3" blade Button lock Ceramic bearings Aluminum scales...or frame? Not sure what to call one piece construction. :) Its very dramatic in person....and when its not dark outside.
