    MKELAW's Online Store is Closed…

    Like many others, I have bought several pipes from Dave’s site and was always very happy with the dealings. I have also bought pipes from MBSD and had similar positive experiences.

    Instant Oxidation?

    I bought a new Comoy pot that had been displayed in the shop window. As soon as I put it in my mouth it instantly oxidized. I wasn’t too happy but I had bought it on vacation so was stuck with it.

    Canadian Import Advice Help - Tax was 200%!

    Interesting spreadsheet but I believe the statement that Alberta’s provincial tax on pipe tobacco is zero is incorrect. Easy enough to correct.

    Flake Tabac Question

    I have had success with fold and stuff but it varies from flake to flake and which pipe I am putting them in. So I will usually use a small food processor and then dry a little as @Sobrbiker suggests. Seem to get good flavour and can control heat with tamping and cadence.

    Returning to Canada with Tobacco: Receipts Required?

    It’s not just duty when you get a shipment - you also have to pay all the taxes, that’s what gets you.

    Tobacco storage

    I live in a very dry area and my tobacco is kept in the dark and it can fluctuate from 68 to 86 degrees in the house over the seasons and I don’t think I’ve seen this haze. I’ll have to watch closer in the summer.

    Types and Brands of Pipe Tobacco, 1920's to 1940's

    My stepmom said when she grew up in the late ‘30s and ‘40s they grew tobacco for their personal use. Most people outside the city did. They grew as much of their food as they could and also foraged for mushrooms, etc. They needed to stretch a dollar.
