    Totally Rad (Davis)

    I've owned a few, but they never worked well for me. I believe most were then bought by folks here, who seemed to love them.

    Great choices!

    Estate Purchase

    I don't think you can make a blanket statement like that. Dunhills from certain eras range from pedestrian to just bad (I'm talking to you the 1970's!) High end Petersons compete well with Dunhills on build quality and so do Savinelli's (Autograph's, etc.) Peterson and Savinelli also sell...

    Anyone Know Anything About Scott Hunsley Pipes?

    I see, he only posts to the UK, looks like he's just starting.

    The Official 2024 NHL Playoff Thread

    I watched the Bruins/Leafs game. Marchand does what he does, get under your skin and win. The Leafs tied it at two in the final couple minutes, Marchand scores immediately to take the air out of the building.

    Interesting Completed Ebay Auctions - British Pipes

    I whiffed on this pre-Republic and regret not going over $150. https://www.ebay.com/itm/226097979712?mkevt=1&mkpid=0&emsid=e11001.m43.l2648&mkcid=7&ch=osgood&euid=392eae4af80840d3b843a4bb82461c0b&bu=43192253561&osub=-1%7E1&crd=20240424074017&segname=11001 I bought the sister pipe from Tony...

    Another Swan Neck Adventure

    That's not an exaggeration about a Dibos button, magic.

    Another Swan Neck Adventure

    Schulte's was a tobacco and pipe repair shop in Newark NJ. He would likely smile seeing this one still in use. https://pipedia.org/wiki/Schulte This Schulte (Howard) retired to FL and did pipe repair, up until a few years ago. At least I think it was the same person. I believe he has now...

    Finale of Shogun is this evening. Last weeks ending was explosive, I'm not sure how they tie a bow on this in one last episode.

    Spotted...In The Wild!

    I was at a British car show last weekend. An old-timer with a stooped back and cane was walking around the cars and smoking a pipe. I asked him what he was smoking and he said "A little of this and that". I said it looks like you have a Peterson there. (it was a Peterson strummel with a Dr...

    The Official 2024 NHL Playoff Thread

    Wow, the Canes were down 3-1 at the end of two, I thought this one was over. But the Canes came back with vengeance. Great game to watch. Canes have the cup in hand with this kind of play. The Capitals brought up another D from the Hershey Bears yesterday, they are now more AHL than NHL...

    Interesting Completed Ebay Auctions - British Pipes

    I'd definitely have to save the original (I suspect Orlando meant replace & save vs discard it) At a $600 purchase, with a $200 replacement stem,I suppose it would be worth $800 to a collector to own and enjoy it. The scorched rim is that area that's more difficult to fix and retain...
