    Interesting Elliot Nachwalter Pipe - Pic Heavy

    I recently won this on eBay for $55 and the main reason I wanted it was because I really liked the looks of it. I'd heard of Elliot Nachwalter before but knew little about him or his pipes. After doing some research, I found out that he's an interesting pipe maker that has been around since the...

    J. Singleton OHV Motorcycle Pipe

    Came across this little item reading the latest KPC pipe news letter. So if you are prone to smoke while riding your motorcycle, or car with the top down or windows open, or even lunting in a stiff breeze, this is the pipe for you! :mrgreen:

    Old Mystery Pipe with Mystery Hallmarks, Pics

    Here's another eBay find I couldn't resist for $3.95. Photos were horrible, so grainy and dark, but it looked interesting. It was in good condition, in fact I don't think it had ever been smoked. Dirty on the outside but the shank and stem showed no color on the first try with alcohol. Super...

    Me and My Wife Are Ready for Halloween - in a Small Way...

    Living out in the country we get no trick or treaters, so we just have to have our own little party. So here's our treats for tonight: my wife's witches pipe and my warlock pipe, a little smokey scotch with some Gordon Pym. Have a spooky one tonight! :twisted:

    Odd Stamping on a Savinelli Octavia - Any Ideas?

    I recently got this Savinelli Octavia from Dave Neeb which he listed as a Savinelli R.M. 2006. It's a beautiful pipe and obviously an Octavia but why this odd stamping? It has no other stamping on the briar other than Italy, and the Savinelli logo on the stem. I cannot find anything about this...

    Black and Black - Exploring the Weird

    In my questionable quest to explore as many blends as I can, I came up with these two interesting blends. Torben Dansk (Dan) tobacco's Black Velvet, and Vauen's Black Pepper. Black Velvet is supposedly flavored like the drink Black Velvet which consists of part Guinness Stout and part Champagne...

    Penzance? Stonehaven? Bengal Slices? Gotta Have the Right Pipe!

    If you're a fan on these hard to find blends, often referred to as Unicorn blends because they never seem to exist, here's the pipe you need to smoke them. Found on eBay, but not for me as I don't have any of those blends. I'm sure someone out there needs it though! Maybe if you buy the pipe...

    Las Vegas Nightmare!

    I can't comprehend what happened at a Las Vegas concert last night. My stepdaughter, her friend, her daughter and her friend were all there for the 3 day event. They literally dodged a bullet because one of them got sick and they left just before the shooting started. But because of the chaos...

    Unusual Shape GBD Prehistoric with Perspex Stem

    I got this off eBay about a week ago and just cleaned it up. Shape number 9490, not sure what to call it, square shank bent billiard I guess. This was my first pipe with a perspex stem. I did some reading on cleaning these, as it was pretty ugly with a lot of tar. I tried the safest, simplest...

    Tsuge! Pipe and Tobacco

    As most of you know I don't tend to spend a lot of money on pipes. I like to look for the best for less as far as pipes go. So naturally most of my pipes are estate pipes. Ok, to the subject at hand, I've never bought a Tsuge pipe as I've never found one I liked that I could afford. To my...

    Wait a Minute, What's Going on with These Plugs?

    About a year ago I obtained some Velvan Plug and as I smoked it I thought it seemed kinda familiar. Checked my Peterson's 3P and it looked, smelled and tasted the same as the Velvan. Ok, so yesterday I opened a pouch of Salty Dogs, and low and behold, it looked, smelled and tasted the same as...

    American Ripper Anyone? (With a Leather Covered Pipe Too)

    My wife and I started watching the first episode of American Ripper not knowing what to expect. Well, we're still watching and finding it rather interesting, as it's mostly a documentary about H. H. Holmes, America's first serial killer and his possible link to London's Jack the Ripper. Lot's of...

    Where Does The Mauro Series II Fit Into the Mauro Armellini Pipe Line?

    I came across a Mauro Series II pipe that I got for $10 plus shipping. I've had a few Mauro Armellini pipes in the past, but never hung on to them. They seem to be nicely made pipes, but for some reason I can't seem to find one that I like the shape or feel of. This pipe seems to be a departure...

    What I've Been Doing For the Last 3 weeks...

    Warning, this is going to seem like an Indiana Frank story... I Haven't been on the forums as of late, mainly because we were invaded by a large amount of family! We knew they were coming, so it took a week of cleaning, moving some furniture, and so on. We ended up with 6 adults plus a 8 mo...

    What Are You Smoking on the 4th? US Pipe and Tobacco?

    Yeah this is a cross between the "happy 4th of July, and what are you smoking today" threads. But I was just curious if todays date made you choose something specific. I went for an nice old Heritage Heirloom lovat, with a little Russ O's Tasty Kake. Take that Dunhill and Penzance! :nana: (no...

    You Know What They Say About Idle Hands...

    If I don't have a nice pipe to restore, this is the type of trouble I get into. I took a bowl I bought for junk/parts because it looked to have a crack. It didn't just an odd line in the sandblast that I then made look like a crack. Then took a stem I don't know where it came from, and decided...

    I Told You I Was Going to Buy a Caminetto! Pics for Proof...

    It was about 5-6 days ago when I replied to a thread about what's on your PAD list. I have been looking at Caminettos for a few weeks, and had a couple of them on my watch list. One I liked didn't sell, and the seller re-listed it with a buy it now for $60. I ended up buying it and the shipping...

    Nat Geo's "Genius"- Anyone Watch It?

    I started out watching this series about Einstein, and decided to keep watching the series due to the way it was filmed and acted. We all know that Einstein smoked the pipe, but outside of his genius with math and physics, what do we really know about the man? Yes, the series is about Einstein...

    Another Tilshead? Strange Auction and Strange Little Pipe - Pics

    This is one of those pipe purchases that are just odd. I had no intention of buying another Tilshead pipe so soon after my other one. Sometimes I just like to cruise eBay and see what's there that's interesting. Right away I came across a pipe advertised as a Tm Shead, hand made in England. The...

    Tilshead Pipe, How Old Is It? - Pics

    Recently bought a Tilshead pipe that has hardly been used. I know they are James Upscale seconds, but this one looked really good, so I had to spring $45 for it. I've been reading some old threads about Upshall and Tilshead pipes here and I find their history quite interesting. However, I still...
