Sixten Ivarsson, S. Bang, Ser Jacopo, Il Cerchio, Posella, Poul Ilsted, L'anatra, Former. I'm sure there are others that I can't think of right now.
Cavicchi used to be on the list for over ten years buy I recently bought one.
Brookfield No. 1 in my Altinay. Trying out some cheap tobaccos, this one isn't bad. The pipe is starting to get some character. I have smoked around 50 bowls in it now.
My first Ashton. I've been on the lookout for a Brindle with silver that fit my taste (and budget) for quite a while. Ended up getting this one for a good price.
Thanks. I couldn't resist that blast.

Got myself a Pub pipe. Being a big fan of the dutch billiard I couldn't keep myself from buying one any longer when the right one for the right price came along.

I have been wanting to get an Auenland for a while but felt they were a bit too expensive, being something of a gimmick pipe and all. I recently sold a bunch of pipes to smokingpipes.eu and now I have quite a bit of store credit so I thought why not. Got it in the mail yesterday and now I'm...
Today I smoked Mac Baren Classic Roll Cake, HU Tobacco Indaba, Vauen No. 7 Crunchy Blend, Samuel Gawith Palace Gate and Lakeland Dark. Lakeland Dark in a MM Rob Roy and the rest in the Altinay.
Indaba and both the Samuel Gawith blends were new to me and I really enjoyed all of them. I get the...
My first pipe was one that my grandfather gave me in my early teens, A G.L. Lillehammer. I lost it in a move and I still think about it every now and then and feel a little bit sad. I bought a few corn cobs as a teenager but smoked cigarette tobacco in them when I got tired of rolling...
