    Capstan Blue Flake

    Now normally I don't smoke flakes but for some reason I found myself in my local B&M and the stack of Capstan tins caught my eye. Never tried it before and didn't know much about it but for some reason I just needed to try a tin. Man, I was blown away, it was so good and tasty. My buddy Morton...

    Lunting And Hunting

    My FiL and I are going moose hunting this fall and he was asking if I will be smoking my pipe? I told him of course. "No, I mean while actually hunting" he said and it made me think. I have hunted gophers and crows often with a pipe in my mouth, I've even shot at the range with my pipe between...

    Regina, Saskatchewan Meet Up.

    Last night was the first meeting of the (insert catchy name here) here in Regina and a great time was had. Morton, Yaddy306, and myself met up at a local watering hole to smoke some pipes, swap some blends, and have a merry ole time. Morton is the brew master there so his recommendations of ales...

    VaPers.... Heavy on the Per?

    I'm down to my last few bowls of McClelland's Beacon Extra and I'm wanting to try a few different VaPers. I've tried the 4noggin Prairie Wind and the Perique level is a little weak compared to the Beacon Extra. Beacon was the first I tried and now when I reach for a VaPer I really want to taste...

    I'm Hit, I'm Hit, The Pad Got Me!!!

    So I am chomping at the bit for my Tsuge Blowfish to get here (It left Smokingpipes on the 5th and still waiting) so to easy my impatiences I headed down to the local B+M for a pouch of Sail I've been wanting to try as it was my Grandda's fav and I've never had it. I walk in a Jeff, the owner...

    Smallest Pipe?

    This topic has probably been covered but what is your smallest pipe? I'm looking for a 10-15 min smoke, something with thicker walls to keep the heat down. Seen a few really cool tiny free hands that look awesome. What is your favorite small pipe?

    Group Hug?

    Not sure if it's the season, the heat, the rain, or the influx of new members but the forums are seeming a bit more snippy as of late. I understand that some topics are getting rehashed and some are touchy for some member, but let's remember why we're all here...... A mutual enjoyment of pipe...

    Zenith Clay Pipes

    I added to my collection of Zenith clay pipes today with the addition of two more. While fragile and bad for travel pipes they are amazing at giving a true, unadulterated flavor of whatever tobacco your smoking. I love them for sampling new tobaccos so I can get a "clean" taste for what the...

    Wedding Day Bowl

    Tied the knot on Saturday and started the day off right sitting on the balcony with a good coffee and a bowl of C&D Blockade Runner out of my new Peterson St Paddy's day 999 shaped rodisian. Was a great start to a great day.

    Two Devils

    My first artisan pipes in my growing collection. A matched pair of sandblasted "Devil Anse" pipes by Eric Paulson. Both pipes are beautifully made with natural bowls, vulcanite bits, and surgical stainless steel tenons. Both pass the pipe cleaner test with a nice easy draw. Couldn't be happier...

    The Grandpa Experiment!!

    My Grandda used to smoke the same pipe all day, everyday. In 18 years I never saw him with a different pipe, never saw any pipe cleaners at his place, no reamers, no nothing. So here is my experiment. Everyone always says that you need to rest pipe, 1 day, 3 days, a week, I've heard several...

    Don't Carry Pipes In Your Pocket!!!!

    Got to work this morning after enjoying a bowl of 1Q on the way in and as always heading in I dropped my Peterson Tankard into my coat pocket. I was immediately put to work doing up a report on a failed chain fall over the weekend and after doing my investigation in the Fab shop I jumped into my...

    Chacom Maya Finish Question

    I picked up a Chacom Maya poker estate recently and in the first bowl I noticed it 1) holds a lot of tobacco!! and 2) smokes a little warm. Now most of my pipes are rustic or sandblasted so I have never come across a pipe that is as shiny as this Chacom and I have a sneaking suspicion that the...

    An Apology

    I wanted to apologize for my part in the discussion yesterday on private member information. I over reacted to a subject that is very sensitive topic to me. A few years ago I ended up in a visitation battle for time to see my little girl. Her mother took information, information about my from...

    Lane 1Q Vs. Sutliff D40 Vanilla

    I am a fan of vanilla and right now 1Q mixed 50/50 with Lane's BCA is my everyday smoke. I am looking to add some more bulk to my cellar and wonder how the Sutliff D40 stands up to 1Q as far as a vanilla aro?

    The Pipe or Me.... The Gods Hate One Of Us!!

    So a couple of weeks ago I posted about a Trypis pipe I got with a real hot spot and the start of what looked like a burn out. So I did a pipe mud patch repair job and left it to cure for a week. Yesterday I try a bowl and voila, no more hot spot!! Yay!! After I finish the bowl I drop the...

    Northern European PAD

    I think I may have stumbled on a love of Northern European pipe styles now. I picked up a brand new BigBen Barbados made in Holland and an estate Danske Club Natural (Stanwell Sub-brand) last week and I love the lines of these pipes. Most of my pipes until now have been traditional shapes where...
