    Peterson Saddle Stems

    I've become a big fan of Peterson. The first nice pipe I bought myself was a 107 Ebony spigot for Christmas which has become a tradition. What drew me to this pipe aside from the contrast of the ebony stain and the glimmering silver accents was the saddle stem. I just really love saddle...

    Do You Ash?

    I'm sure it's subjective but do you ash throughout a bowl? I've heard some guys won't touch it with anything but a tamper/finger until it's done and dusted. Personally I'll get to a point, usually halfway down, where it starts to get difficult to light and I'll agitate and then dump the really...

    McCranie's Choice Reserve

    I'm sure most of you are familiar with McCranie's, it's a Charlotte, North Carolina institution and for a long time carried some fantastic blends made just for the shop by McClelland.

I'm not planning on picking up a new Sav any time soon but I am intrigued by the tobacco, the Antique...

    Swiss Army Knife's Jar Labels

    I'm a graphic designer by trade and despite my best efforts I can't help but spend inordinate amounts of time making sure my drawers of mason jars are looking their very best. There was some interest in me posting all my jar labels and maybe taking some requests a few months back and I'm now...
  7. Swiss Army Knife

    Hello from North Carolina

    Long time lurker, first time poster here. I'm 30 and have lived in NC almost my entire life, I picked up pipe smoking when I turned 18 but like many a teenage whim it lost my attention and my cheap Italian basket pipe languished for over a decade. I recently got bit by the bug again kind of out...
