    GL Pease Quiet Nights in a Vauen. Awesome blend!

    Unknown London Made Pipe

    And here's mine - even more convincing having seen them together for the first time:

    Unknown London Made Pipe

    GBD was my first guess as well, BUT: afaik GBD always stamped "LONDON ENGLAND" without "MADE IN". And I have a Parker that is stamped exactly the same...

    Unknown London Made Pipe

    Got this one between a few crappy pipes. It is marked as a house pipe from a German tobacconist (whom I gave a call, but the current manager didn't know the producer). And it says "MADE IN LONDON ENGLAND". The W on the stem stands for "Wagner", the name of the tobacconist. As it looks quite...

    My Wife is Back to Pipe Smoking

    Not going to happen, we have different tastes. The only blend so far that both of us enjoy is Ennerdale, and that is always in stock anyway.

    My Wife is Back to Pipe Smoking

    Yes, mine has also great patience when it comes to reaming really nasty estate pipes ?

    My Wife is Back to Pipe Smoking

    A few years ago my wife, who is a moderate cigarette and shisha smoker, also tried pipe smoking but did not stick to it. Start this week, to my surprise, she cleaned her pipes (she had her own from the beginning), asked me for some tobacco and started again! For most blends, we have a different...

    ***What Are You Smoking, October 2020?***

    Yep, from all still available that's definitely my deserted island blend

    Awesome Tool: Pipeholder / Tamper / Key Ring

    I can imagine - in the end this idea is so obvious that my friend can hardly be the only one that had it :)

    David "Baff?" Wagner

    David Wagner - when I hit the forum search I do not get many results so maybe there are a few people out there that find an introduction interesting. Unfortunately he's pausing making pipes at the moment, but every now and then some of his pipes show up on the estate market. He's an Austrian...

    ***What Are You Smoking, October 2020?***

    On a home office Friday that turned out longer than expected I smoked my biggest bowl, a rusticated Cumberland BAFF (by unfortunately retired Austrian pipemaker David Wagner), filled up to the edge with HU Daddy Gefftl.

    Awesome Tool: Pipeholder / Tamper / Key Ring

    Want to share a simple and easy to copy, yet awesome device that a fellow German pipesmoker built and gave me (a few might have seen it already in the "What are you smoking thread). It's a leather pipeholder with a Czech tool in the middle. When you fold it, you can rest your pipe on it. And...

    ***What Are You Smoking, October 2020?***

    Are you planning to put a Czech tool in the middle? Like this? No idea how I could smoke pipes so long without this device...

    Just lighting some well-aged Richmond Medium Navy Cut in my "bent tomato-pan" shaped Nils Thomsen Bluesline.

    Pipes and Artisans of Eastern Europe: Undervalued and Underappreciated?

    I have got three really awesome pipes from Czech pipemaker Tomáš Mahovský. Unfortunately he stopped making pipes a few years ago. Really decent bloke btw, had the chance to smoke a bowl over a few beers with him..

    Need Help: Dating Sandblasted GBD New Era

    As far is I get the picture, I more and more come to the result that the stamps don't really tell much about the actual provenience of GBDs. So maybe French made, London finished? With an UK produced silver band. For pipes from the 1950s this seems to be quite common, here's an example from...
