My Latest Moretti
I just got my Moretti in the mail today. This is my second Moretti and I am still in love with his work. I love the fact that I am never disappointed with his pipes in person. Heck they are better in person than in the picks. The fit and finish is superb. Even my wife really likes his pipes. -
Treasure Box plus TAD
After reading an article on Art of Manliness, I decided to start my own treasure box. A place to keep small knick knacks with sentimental value such as my Navy tie clip, my favorite picture of my wife and I, and other such stuff. What better to use than an old cigar box. I found this on my...- dpkrause

Chattanooga Pipe Club Raffle
I just got in the Savinelli Trevi that the Chattanooga Pipe and Cigar Club will be raffling off at our January meeting. Wow am I impressed with the quality of Savinelli for the price. If it smokes as nice as it looks and feels, someone is in for a real treat. Savinelli may be my go to pipe to... -
Chattanooga Smoke Night Report
Last night was the second meeting of the newly formed Chattanooga Pipe and Cigar Club. My first meeting was me, my wife, and my best friend. Having learned my lesson I pounded the pavement and did my best to advertise our small little club. I am happy to report a very successful turn out for our...- dpkrause

Radice Bulldog
Bought a Radice Bulldog from SmokingPipes.com. I love it. Been looking for a bulldog to add to my collection for a while. All I need is a cherrywood/poker and I might be done with the PAD... maybe. BTW, how bad is you PAD spending when your favorite on-line retailer sends you a Christmas card? -
Tobacco Preparation
I am still learning how to properly prepare tobacco and what to do with various cuts of tobacco. At this moment I am drying out some Dunbar after giving it a gentle rub. I am going to loosely pack the pipe and enjoy a nice long smoke and a book at the local park. So how do you prepare you...- dpkrause

The one that got away!
I have been in search of a Cherrywood for my collection. At the same time I have been eyeing Cavicchi pipes. When this beauty came up for sale: Cavicchi Cherrywood. I wanted it bad. By the time I got home and was ready to purchase it for my own, it was gone. Whomever was lucky enough to get this... -
Completed Restoration
Earlier I asked for some help restoring some old Dr. Grabow's and other pipes for use in the pipe club I have started. A fellow pipe smoker graciously agreed to help me. He did an amazing job. Better than I could have ever expected. Check it out the before: and after: These pics do not do... -
Radice GG plus TAD
I loved my first Radice so much that when I saw this one I knew it was meant to be mine. This will be my first "large" pipe. Most of my pipes are what I call medium or average sized pipes. This thing is definitely big, not gargantuan, but a definite step up in size for me. Of course when I... -
Moretti Mouth Hanger
I finally found a mouth hanger that suits me. This stout little Moretti fits my taste quite well and was quite the deal for you what you get. It sits quite comfortably in the hand and off the lip. Can't wait to take it for a spin. What to start off in this pipe? -
Who Restores Pipes?
A while back my wife picked up a lot of about 30 estate pipes for dirt cheap for me. None of these pipes are anything amazing. I was intending to learn how to restore pipes by practicing on these. However, work has kept me quite busy and I just don't have the space to set up an area to do full...- dpkrause

Which one of you was it?
That bought this pipe: Cavicchi Rusticated I had my sights set on this pipe. I was waiting on my next batch of overtime to payout to pick it up. Whomever got it, you are a lucky bastard. -
My Askwithe Arrived!
I love it. This is a beautiful pipe that is beautifully engineered. Smokes like a dream. Smoked a full bowl of Boswell's Piper's Pleasure on my hour long ride home from work. It lit easily and stayed lit the whole ride home. Nice easy draw. Dealing with Chris Askwithe was a great experience. It... -
Chattanooga Pipe Club
As far as I can tell, there is no pipe club in Chattanooga... yet. I would like to start one up. Very informal. Just get together once or twice a month to share a pipe and some stories. Anyone interested? I was thinking of meeting at the Honest Pint in downtown Chattanooga. It has a cool...- dpkrause

A Little More TAD
I got one last bit of tobacco for now. This time from Jack Lee blends. Since I could not decide on what to get I went with the 2 ounces of everything choice. While I was out running errands, I bought some mason jars. I jarred up most of the tins I have to make it easier to sample each one but...- dpkrause

McCelland Bombay Court
This was my first Latakia. If all Latakia are like this, I am hooked. I am not an experienced smoker, this isn't going to be some profound review that compares this to a wide range of tobaccos. To date, I have smoked mostly aromatic tobaccos. Today I found out what I missing out on by not...- dpkrause

PAD/TAD Insanity
I got so many great tobacco suggestions, I had hard time making a decision. Once I started down the path of buying tobacco, I had to get the light weight pipes I have been eyeing. Smokingpipes.com is going to keep me very poor, but very relaxed and happy. The start my of pipe... -
