    Is Wilke Having Trouble?

    I’m highly partial to #515 but the last time I ordered it it took a long time to ship. This time I ordered some Rumcake in October and it’s been over a month, hadn’t heard anything. Got in touch with the guy over there and he said “it will ship this week” it’s been 2 weeks since then. Anyone...

    Are These Factory Fills?

    Happy thanksgiving! I pulled out my 02 Peterson Halloween 2025 pipe after the festivities today and put my first smoke through it with some autumn evening. After the smoke I gave it a quick pipe cleaner twist wipe and noticed these 2 craters, both on the right hand side. First time seeing...

    Is This a Crack?

    Please tell me this isn’t a crack, and it’s just bowl coat…it’s a 2021 POTY that’s been smoked max 4 times….

    When Building Cake

    Do you all recommend the 1/4 bowl, 1/2 bowl, 3/4 bowl method? Or do you subscribe to fill it up and smoke it? My current thing is half-3/4 full bowl. -> thumb over the top -> shake the ash around the bowl. -> gentle wipe out with a pipe cleaner to dry and get loose pieces, not to wipe off the...

    Help identifying

    I’ve recently fallen in love with the moonshine shapes, especially the devil dog. Still new to learning how to break in a pipe properly… I noticed the bowl coat from moonshine was rather loose and it wiped out by the tins when the pipe first arrived…this is now after 3 smokes after that bowl...

    Kiribi Lighter isssue?

    Are the flint tubes always loose on them? I have a kabuto and a SP 25th anniversary edition, and when I shake them the flint tube audibly rattles. I also have a Peterson built in the old boy style and that flint tube is loose-ish as well. Is that just part of the design?

    How Hard is it to Burnout a Pipe?

    Hello, I’ve asked more specific questions about specific pipes before but I have a more broad question. -How hard is it to really burnout a decently made pipe, like a newer Savinellli, Peterson POTY, or a Dunhill? I get the impression it’s very rare from forum posts I’ve seen, but my real...

    Devil Anse Pipes?

    I’m looking for a pipe that would be good for slipping in my case for traveling, I’ve decided I like the Devil Anse shape. Could someone point me to a few makers they know for decent ones? I know of Moonshine, are there any others you trust?

    Is this cake starting or is it burning out after 2 smokes?

    This is what my bowl looks like after 2 smokes, what’s going on here? Is it burning out or is this normal?

    Same shape, bigger size?

    Hello everyone, I’ve recently taken to another fancy as we seem to do when we see a new shape that catches that sweet spot in our pipe souls. My current one is the 3404 by Dunhill. There’s just something about that subtle arching bend it has to it. — Anyway, I’ve been trying to research it...

    Looking for a Golden Walnut Stem

    Hello! I was wondering if anyone had a spare stem that would match/fit a Ben Wade Golden Walnut. I picked one up at an antique store yesterday and I’m about 100% sure the stem on it is just some random stem whoever had it stuck on it. Willing to pay.

    Could Someone Help me Identify This?

    I picked it up at an antique store for 19 bucks. Stinger has 4 holes at the end of the ball. Left side of the shank has KAYWOODIE in all caps print and “Standard” in font underneath it. Right side says 37 G (or c?) I’m gonna make this my first run at restoration. Does anyone know an...
