    What Did I Just Pass On?? Please Tell Me Its Crap

    Just passed up on this as bidding was getting a bit silly. The seller says the pipe is marked ‘London Made’ and these are the only pics. Obviously meer lined, and I really like the blast. Please tell me I didn’t just overlook a classic...

    Warhorse Bar - Marshmallow??

    I thoroughly enjoy the bar. Like it’s almost perfect. Im getting this marshmallow vibe today - almost similar to the end of the bowl on sutliffs burley delight (except I like warhorse). Does anyone else get this? Or is this what valerian root tastes like? chur

    Everdry French Pipe

    Can anyone help with some information about this pipe? I am intending on selling it but just wanted a bit more understanding about its provenance. I know ‘Everdry’ is a Parker line - would be a logical conclusion given the P stamp on the stem except it’s encircled not within a diamond. Cheers

    1955 GBD Work In Progress

    Wanted another pipe for using around the workshop and garden and when I saw this for $10 I thought why not try a restoration. Here’s a pic from the listing and one with where I am up to. I have done the usual cleaning of the inside, geez that shank was filthy. Slightly topped and gently...

    What Have We Here?

    Picked up this bulldog online the other day as I had a hunch it was old and unsmoked. Bit of a badge on the bowl, and a slight discolouration on the shank which leads me to believe there either was a silver collar or the intention of banding with one. Bone screw tenon. Vulcanite stem with...

    $150-200 Pipe Suggestions?

    I’m an estate man through and through. The most expensive pipe I smoke cost me $25 and that was a new cob. I’m musing about contributing 150-200 towards my small collection. I’m still leaning towards estates purely for more bang for my buck, but happy to be pointed towards something new. Also...

    How To Dedicate Pipes To Lakeland’s (ish) Genres?

    Ok so stupid title. I know the answer is put some tobacco in your pipe and smoke it... Im more interested in knowing which blends have complimentary ghosts. Up until now I have mainly smoked these in Cobs or clay pipes. I’ve seen a few threads on the topic but thought I’d list the blends I have...

    Dealing To Oxidation On Unsmoked Stems

    I feel like this is a stupid question but up until recently I’ve only had to worry about restoring estates that had been smoked. I’ve since come into finding a few unsmoked that have just been sitting around for a half a century. How do you clean up unsmoked oxidised stems? The same as you...

    1lb Bulk Flake Packaging

    Do bulk flakes come in boxes or bags when purchased in 1lb quantities? Or does it depend on the brand, or the size of the package when it leaves the manufacturer, eg. 1kg box like comoys cask 4 or 5lb box like sutlif 507c?? Sorry for the stupid question, I just have never placed a bulk order in...

    I Think I Just Went Through Puberty...

    I’m pretty much a burley smoker, 60% of the time, it works every time. If I want a change of pace, I’ll reach for something Lakeland’s. Very rarely do I feel like something with Latakia, maybe in the evening or a cold winters morning. Normally it’s just too much. While working on a window...
