    KB&B Kaywoodie.

    With the KBB in clover on it stamped and it says Kaywoodie also, it’s pre 1930’s most likely. I’ve got a couple hundred Kaywoodie but not a ton of early ones. I just had to date a 1926-29 shape though and remember that off top of my head.

    Recent TAD Pick-Ups

    This is Nov-Jan. I missed quite a bit. Got 2 lbs of Folklore which I like a lot so relieved. Some ordained. Wessex Burley Slices, A dozen Peterson EMP and others. Went overboard but … well yeah. I shouldn’t have. But it’s been fun organizing it all.

    How to Date Savinelli Tobacco Tins like Juno or Janus?

    Yeah. Normal round tins. No dates. Only numbers are in the barcode area. So… no joy I don’t think. About to open Janus for first time and see how it is.

    Tobacco Acquisition Disorder

    Here’s about 2/3 of my Nov-Jan purchase. I got a few more lbs of random. Folklore, FVF Plug, and a good bit of EMP. Also more Rattray’s and I don’t even know. If my wife saw….

    ***What Are You Smoking, February 2023?***

    Today… started with Folklore in a brand new Ardor I’m breaking in. Followed up by a freshly opened tin of Presbyterian Ordained trying it out. Then had some Fat bastard by Watch City Cigar in a Dagner Poker. Smoked a big bowl of Full Virginia Flake in a Sav 614 Tortuga, evening I smoked a...

    Mold ?

    I opened a tin of Balkan Sobranie. Had the hiss sound and all … looks like mold but hard to tell. Jarred it and it’s been sitting for a month or two but I guess better safe than sorry and tossing it … only tin I’ve ever opened with mold or what looks to be mold. Certainly not bloom/plume. I got...

    What are False Artisan Pipes?

    Thank you for asking! I’ve been wondering myself for years now. I could only guess factory and not an Artisan? Lol. Drove me nuts seeing it constantly on pipe store sites.

    Anyone Have Info On MKM Meerschaum? / New Smooth Rhodesian I’m Excited About.

    I came across an unsmoked with case MKM Smooth Rhodesian with Silver Spigot. The seller usually sells goods from customs or something like that, I forgot. Pipes aren’t his bread and butter. Anyway, it was buy it now and just listed. I love my smooth meers and prefer partially bent pipes so I...

    Ready for Christmas!

    Ha. Th ha. That’s so festive of you. I got Cringle flake of course but aside from that, never had a Christmas blend. I saw some pretty amped up tins on Bremen Piper’s channel over in Germany. really large, going all out branding there. Most are aromatics it seems so I’ve passed on a good...

    Pipe Chain Smokers?

    I have my days or weeks where I smoke a lot but it’s also largely as a break to get outside and I need something to do instead of just sit. I’m too fidgety to just sit. Then I’ll go back to a few bowls a day. Lots of times I’m starting and stopping same bowl for 10-15 min breaks. Kind of...

    Movies with Pipe Smoking Scenes

    I was working to identify, obtain and create identical, period specific pipes together for the upcoming Oppenheimer movie by Christopher Nolan. I can tell you it’s loaded with pipes and for a lot of the characters. I’m excited to see it when it comes out.

    "Pocket Jar" - Tobacco Travel Container?

    I seen this made a few years ago out of aluminum or steel? Precision done but was about $80 and looks kind of hard to open. That one anyway. This looks pretty cool. I like this design. Would slip in and out of a pocket easily if smooth. That ufo shape seems the best for pockets. I’ve used...

    "Pocket Jar" - Tobacco Travel Container?

    Late to the post but I got one several months ago and really like it. I actually have spent a few years trying all sorts of containers just as a bit of an obsession. It’s good. Seems 3-D printed? I keep one attached to a magnet under my patio table if I want another bowl and don’t want to go...

    Your Cellar Size

    Well I went from cigars to trying pipes and full obsessions since. 3 years in and it’s what I do and what I enjoy. I don’t know anymore. I know I’ve got to stop and sell/trade a lot. I’ve got a full closet nearly. I have this urge to try everything. 200- 250 tins maybe? 80 or so jars...

    Why Switch from Cigarettes to Pipe?

    Helped me quite and I had a unique perspective. Wife quit same time without use of a pipe. It helped so much with the routine, a bit of nicotine but not much compared to Cigs, eventually I stopped going for the cig and straight to the pipe. My wife still smokes Cigs.

    How do I repack an opened loose pipe tobacco?

    I keep buying more jars. I just have 100 now. Lol. I have to try everything. I keep mine in one of those 3 drawer plastic things. Virginia on top, burley below and English below and another drawer for randoms. Rest is cellared. I have Mylar bags too as others have said.
