    GH&Co Brown Irish #4 Rope --- Love the New Package Method/Coil Size

    My comment was directed @gawithhoggarth since their (non) reply to me equates to "read the label on the box pictured ya wanker". Call it whatever you wish sir 😉

    Looking for a New Knife

    Last under $50 Kershaw I had ended up with a broken tip with occasional light use. I don't recommend. CRKT M21-10KSF is an excellent under $50 knife if you want serrated. Otherwise, the Buck 110 Folding Hunter LT is a great standard pocket knife at around $40.

    The classic Buck 110 or the smaller variation are hard to beat.

    What is the Most Muscular Straight Burley Sold Today?

    I find Kelly's Coin to be a stronger nic hit than Burley Flake No 1 by quite a lot. Maybe because I smoke BF1 a lot slower since it's a flake and KC is a fine ribbon. It's Interesting how different people react to the same tobaccos.

    What is the Most Muscular Straight Burley Sold Today?

    5 Brothers is mild-medium at best with little flavor IMHO. C&D Kelly's Coin and Old Joe Krantz are strong for sure. Not sure exactly what tyoe of leaf is in Kendall Kentucky these days, but years ago it was supposed to be straight Kentucky burley and quite strong.

    Preferred Bowl Size For Burley Blends

    I smoke Burley blends mostly in billiards. I don't specifically dedicate pipes for anything.

    C&D Dark Burley

    As others said, great review and exactly why I love this baccy. Either straight or used to "fix" other blends, I smoke it frequently.
