    Best Pipe types for different Blend types

    I’m a new pipe smoker four years in so I am still figuring out what blend/pipe combos I like. I started out thinking I would prefer certain blend types in certain shapes, like what the OP mentioned. Lately I’ve been more interested in focusing on the specific blend, as in “does Old Joe Krantz...

    Sound advice and I appreciate it. I used a water based stain and sealer combo. Restore A Deck, it went on easily and didn’t smell to high heaven. Probably not as durable as a dedicated sealer but saved a step. Time will tell.

    One pipe would be a Meer. One tobacco would be Briar Fox. Ask me again in a year.

    Oh man. My father used to sing this to his little sister while in foster care. I first heard this by way of my aunt telling me this. We had a good laugh about it. I wonder how many siblings did something similar.

    Fall / Halloween 2025!

    I’ll try to add something new. Pipe smoke can be evocative, certain blends remind me or bring up a sense of fall, dried leaves, the woods, etc. In that line of reasoning dark fired does the trick. GL Pease Cumberland. GL Pease Jack Knife Plug.

    Irish Flake new pipe smoker

    I’ll add GL Pease Jack Knife Plug, but I prefer it with some age on it. I’ve smoked from a fresh tin and it was pretty sharp. I’ve smoked a tin with around ten years of age and it had deepened and mellowed a lot. Earthy, a little sweet, and strong.

    Any Love For Non-Bulldog Diamond Shanked Pipes ?

    I do like them but I think I only have 1 that is not a bulldog. It’s a Becker I found at GatlinBurlier in Tennessee. I’m pretty sure it was made by the second Becker, a treasure of a find to me.

    Looking for Non-Aromatic Recommendations:

    Hahaha, but how many jars do you have? It sounds like you are going to enjoy going down the rabbit hole of trying many different blends. Enjoy the journey.

    VDL_Piper

    I’ve been wondering this myself. I also miss his posts , he has a keen sense of humor. I sent him a DM or PM (or whatever the hell it’s called, textspeak sucks millennial balls) around the end of July but no reply. I don’t have any other contact info for him. He’s a tough and wily one so I’m...
