    Don’t Judge: MM Corn Cob Question.

    Saw this locally. What caught my eye was the diamond shank. Anyone know what model this is? Cheers

    Does Anyone Press Their Rope Tobacco?

    Just wondering if anyone has bothered to press any Kendal twists before slicing up into DIY Birdseye/curly cut? Curious to hear if there was any noticeable difference

    Did I Just Make A Mistake?

    Bella just asked me if I needed a tobacco grinder, y’know one of those pocket sized things I think people use for weed. I had a look at what she meant and said “erm no, but thanks for asking”. She said, “oh I thought it would have been handy for them ropes and pluggy things you smoke”… with the...

    Charles Maas

    I have a side hustle in my collection for Charles Maas pipes. As a marquee they are very special to me as they remind me of friendship. I have been fortunate enough to buy, trade, shamelessly beg and be surprised by the generosity of fellow hoarders enthusiasts of old britwood to start putting a...

    Why Does This Pipe Smoke Hot?

    I’ve had a gurgler before, no matter what I loaded her with, no matter how I smoked, it would always gurgle from about 1/4 of the the way through. I have another pipe that whistles. I know I could fix the drilling, but I won’t because of its collectible/historical value. Despite these ‘flaws’...

    Preedy Straight Grain

    @jguss and @sablebrush52 this is the one I was talking about… this tiny number came as part of a small lot I picked up recently. Despite looking like it had only been lightly smoked, the outside of the stem was so heavily oxidised that I originally thought it was a horn stem from the listing...

    Rad Davis Collectors?

    Show Me Some Pics of Your Local Birds

    No @Grangerous! We both know what you instinctively want to post. Lol We share our home with many feathery friends, so thought I’d post some pics of some you only see down under. What’s native to your area?

    What’s Your Favourite Logo?

    Doesn’t have to be your favourite marquee, heck they could be renowned as terrible pipes, but what is your favourite logo, stamp, etc?

    “GH” (or “HG”) Stamp on Orlik Pipes?

    I recently scored a bunch of estate 1970s Orlik virgins from a forum member, and noticed they have this strange stamping on them. I’m assuming it’s for a tobacconist, but either way I have never come across it before. wondering if anyone has any ideas?

    Pics Now In PMs!

    I know there are a few threads about this, but I just noticed that I can add pictures directly from my phone/computer into PMs now, rather than via an html link etc. Previously this was only for mods…oh wait, have I been enlisted without knowing?

    Linkman’s Grabow Question

    I know this is an oldie because of the stem logo. What I really want to know is whether or not it is actually the pre-patent release - so like c1932? It doesn’t have any patent stamps, or model numbers, only “Linkman’s Dr Grabow”. Chur.

    Question For The Rope Smokers

    Lads, I’ve transitioned from smoking ropes on occasion to pretty much every day. Most of the stuff I’m working through has around a decade on it, and with the exception of the log of tambo, is all made in Kendal for either of the Gawith houses or for Synjeco. I’ve started to just cut of a...

    H.L Pipe??

    I’ve been looking into a pipe a friend has and I can’t figure out how to place it. Was wondering if anybody here could help? it is marked H.L over London Made. Sorry the picture doesn’t help, but that is all I have to go off.

    PSA: Water Flushing Risks

    So for the last few months I have been experimenting with water flushing my pipes. Suffice to say, I have jumped shipped and am now a fully fledged flusher, like I even know the secret handshake and stuff. I don’t think I am part of a cult, or a pyramid scheme, but be sure to include your...

    What Are These?

    I’m assuming something that you would put a cheroot in?

    Is Tobaccopipes.com Owned By Sutliff?

    Not sure if this has always been the case or not, but I just sent an email to a TP sales rep I had dealt with in the past and received an email notification from postmaster@sutliff-tobacco saying the address was no longer valid. Obviously they no longer work there, but what stood out to me was...

    Does C&D Still Press Blends To Order?

    I recently read in a review, which was written about 15 years ago, that for an extra charge C&D would press their blends for you. Does anyone know if they still provide this service?

    (NOT) a $6 Dunhill

    A while back I posted about a birthday present my grandma gave me - an heirloom meerschaum that accompanied my great grandad as his family migrated down under from Glasgow. Included in the gift was a photo of her pop (so my great great grandad). He was a Kendal man through and through; and opera...
