    Interesting Way to Market Your Pipe on EBay ?

    Saw this. Funny, it’s marketed as Elephant Ivory. It’s clearly a St Pat’s pipe. The ugly avocado year. Elephant Ivory tobacco pipe (Made with Ivory) | eBay -...

    MacBaren Virginia Number 1

    Searching for another Virginia blend to add to my cellar; I figured I’d give MacBaren Va No1 a whirl. (HH Pure Virginia is already housed in ample supply aging away, over 20 lbs of that magnificent Flake). I was hoping for something similar to HH, as it’s from the same blending house. Upon...

    10 yr Old Tin.....of Virginia

    Just popped open a tin of “Virginia” that’s been aging (well; to be honest, forgotten) in my cellar. I’ve smoke plenty of “Virginia” over the years, but normally it’s either fresh, or has two years age on it. Anyone that’s smoked this blend knows it has a weird/almost sickly sweet topping. I’d...

    Extreme Bend Pipes?????

    Anyone know of an American artisan that does extreme bent pipes? He used to advertise of FB, but I gave up FB years ago. I remember that he had to use those flexible drill bits and a template guide to drill his airways, there was that big a bend/curve to his shanks.

    Sir John’s Flake @ SP

    ???? Got the notice that SJF was back in stock at SP this morning at 09:47 my time. Logged onto SP @ 09:53 and got the dreaded “out of stock”. ? How Big (or really how LOW) of an allotment did they receive?? Haven’t seen it in stock anywhere for the better part of a year.

    Capstan 3 Year

    Just a heads up: (I’m already fully stocked on Capstan, so it doesn’t appeal to me) that tobaccopipes has a 3 year Capstan offering. Supposedly it’s 4 tins of 3 year aged Capstan. I love aged Capstan, so I suppose this would appeal to new Capstan smokers that want to see what aged Capstan...

    Intractable Dogs...

    I’ve noticed an over abundance of unruly dogs since the beginning of the Covid shutdowns last year. Lots of dopey people getting pets while they were at home, without investing the time to train them. I’ve an idiot down the street who decided a Cane Corso would be a good idea, and it’s broken...

    My Commission from Frank Thunder Pipes

    Commissioned a piece with Frank Johnson (aka Frank Thunder Pipes); and it arrived today. I was already familiar with the quality of his work, as I have one of his pokers that a guy on another forum was selling. Pulled the trigger, and worked with him to design my own personal piece. It does...

    MacBaren HH Latakia Flake

    My revised thoughts on HH Latakia Flake, as something, I wasn’t sure what, was bothering since I first tasted this blend.(*More on that later) Opening the tin, I’m greeted with the familiar, almost regimentally standardized aroma of English (true English) blends. That deep, rich, intoxicating...

    HH Pure Virginia 2015 vs 2020

    Just my review/comparison between some 2015 vintage HHPV I’ve had cellared, and a box I just received via SP discount sale, which is 2020. Both exhibit that sun tea tin note, though the 2015 is much more subdued. I’d say it has more of a straight tea aroma, versus the sweet tea/southern honey...

    Theme Parks/Amusement Parks

    After a one year hiatus; I’ll be venturing out to theme parks again. My first trip will be Kings Island next weekend (Though it’s a little disturbing hearing of the various brawls and fights a few days ago. Sounds too much like the 2018 nonsense at Six Flags Great America, my home park). Was...

    For Fellow Petenuts

    While perusing the Interwebs, saw this listing and immediately I was taken aback. Has this pipe been misstamped? I collect 05 and it’s derivatives (XL11, 05s, 305, XL315) and this is definitely NOT the normal 305 shape.

    Lane RLP-6

    Though not new to me (I’ve smoked it since at least 2001), figured I’d give my impressions, and share some of my initial impressions from some years ago (taken from my personal blend notes. These observations have evolved over time, and Im constantly re-evaluating and re-examining blends)...

    Mac Baren Latakia Rolls

    Just purchased a few tins of this limited release and popped a tin yesterday. The tin note greeted me with that peculiar aroma of the Dark Fired Kentucky; which alarmed me, as I’m not a big fan of DFK (I usually cut some Virginia into HH Old Dark Fired). Nice coins, a bit on the moister side of...

    Hello from the People’s Republic of Illinois

    Been a pipe smoker since my late high school years (around ‘91/‘92). Im more than a bit sarcastic (see my thread title?). Favorite blends are Frog Morton Across the Pond, Murray’s era 965, Pease Maltese Falcon, And McConnell Original Oriental. Love to use Captain Black to build carbon cake...
