Drug store tobacco group
As far as what types of drug store blends I like, I will admit that Middelton's Cherry Blend and Walnut are two of my favorite tobaccos. I tried Sugar Barrel, but did not care for it. I Do not like Carter Hall at all. Something like a liquorice flavor seems to overide anything else. Half &...- maxpeters

Drug store tobacco group
All I can find in the local drug store are a couple bulk blends. That's it. In the grocery store I can see Capt. Black in three versions, Carter Hall and Sir Walter Releigh. The small tobacco store carries mostly cigarettes, but also quite a few Middleton pipe tobaccos, Amphora, Capt. Black...- maxpeters

Corn cob pipes
I have had mine for about 25 years now, and it's still smoking great. I just run a cleaner down through the stem when I'm finished. Then I twist it into a loop, and rum it up and down the sides of the bowl, just like i do with my briars. Hit it on the palm of my hand to get any remaining ash or... -
Upside Down pipe?
That's a pretty intersting pipe dudley. About as strange as mine. You're right about Don Carlos too. They are some of the lightest, nicest smoking pipes I own. -
Upside Down pipe?
A number of years ago, I bought this Don Carlos pipe from my local B&M. At the time I was told it was an upside down pipe, meant to be smoked upside down if the weather was bad. I thought that sounded cool, and since Don Carlos pipes always smoked great for me, I bought it. I have always... -
PAD Purchases
Surfmac, I like meerschaum pipes, but find they smoke a lot like briar. My calabash now, that's a different story. It's one of the most enjoyable pipes I own. If I have the right place to smoke it. No gurgle, and never gets hot in your hand. It does flavor the smoke a little, depending on... -
PAD Purchases
Nice find Phil, I have a few with that same shape, but by different makers. All good smokers. Hope you enjoy it for a long time. -
Whatever Happened To The Uhle Tobacco Company?
I truly hope that it never comes about like that Kevin, but at this time, I don't see anything that would prevent it. Except maybe people like yourself, and the rest of the members here. When did it happen that the majority in this country lost their voice? Is the main media that powerful...- maxpeters

Brigham pipe
I will have to try that, Cortezattic, Bet that first smoke with your gin-filter is a doozy, huh? I knew those Canadians must be holding back a secret or two about why the like Brigham pipes. Would you be Canadian, by chance? Lol. -
Savinelli Pipes
I like Savinelli pipes. I think that they are some of the best made pipes out there. I have several. When I fisrt started to get serious about pipes, an old timer told me " You can never go wrong with a Savinelli. They will always smoke good." I have found that to be true. They don't retain... -

I smoke outside...
During the colder months, I smoke in my den/safe room/man cave. It's small, and both doors close. I usually crack a window after I finish, so the smoke will disperse. By the time I am ready to have another smoke, I close the window and open the doors to get some heat in there. I have a...- maxpeters

Brigham pipe
Yeah Sinister, I am going to keep trying. I bought it because of the filter system. I was hoping it would be a good smoker, so I guess I'll just learn to use the filter with it. Maybe there's some secret for using one. From what I read, it's a popular pipe in Canada. Glad you enjoy yours... -
Brigham pipe
I recieved a Brigham pipe the other day. I have been wanting to try one for quite some time now, so I finally got around to ordering one. The first thing I noticed when I took it out of the box was that it was smaller than I thought it would be, judging from the pictures I've seen. It's about... -

Pictures of my pipes
I understand that cobs eventually wear out, and should just be replaced when they do, but I have been smoking mine off and on for about 25 years now. Still looking, good and smoking great! -
For Peterson's Addicts
Thanks Chuckw, Interesting thread. Please clarify if you will, are all Peterson's army mount? I have a Sherlock Holmes that has a silver band, but the tenon fits into the shank just like any other type of pipe. Push pull, vulcanite on wood. I too am hesitant to remove the stem while the... -
