  1. Bax Burley

    English Bents, pre-1900, and Sherlock Holmes.

    Hello all, I remember reading an article once about the bent billiard not becoming popular in England until approximately 1900, during the Boer War, and the introduction of the Hungarian/Oom Paul. Can anyone point me to any similar articles explaining this? The main reason I ask, I'm actually...

    Peterson St. Patrick's 2022

    https://www.instagram.com/p/CYWFfAsD3p4/ Preview on the Instagram. A bit disappointed. The exact same finish as last year, but army mounts this time. The green may be slightly different, but it looks practically the same. Was really hoping this year was another smooth green finish. Interested...

    Are Liverpools This Rare Nowadays?

    I can find lots of new Canadian shapes. I have some nice Lovats. I have a great Lumberman. But when browsing new pipe listings on the big sites, Liverpools are few and far in between. Ropp makes a few, but they're all really short. Savinelli has one here and there. I find some mislabeled...

    Captain Black Copper Still Made?

    Cpt Black Copper is still available in bulk on a few sites, but it's no longer listed on the official website. Gold, White, Dark, Cherry and Royal are the only ones mentioned. Is this just what's left of the stuff? Does anyone know if it's still made, and just not being marketed much? Round...

    Butternut Burley Ingredients

    Hi all, I read a post recently on Reddit where someone said Butternut Burley (Scotty's/Hearth & Home) is just Lane Burley Light Without a Bite, and Sutliff Vanilla Custard, 50/50. Butternut Burley is only available as a blend your own from Pipes and Cigars now, but it is a bit cheaper to buy...

    Anyone Know Anything About these Pipes from Spain?

    EDIT: Fixed Capitalization in Title (See Rule 9) There are several of these on Paul's Pipe Shop simply called "Handcraft." Made in Spain. Is this an actual company, or are these simply hand made pipes from Spain? I don't see a lot of Spanish briars. Anyone know anything? I can't find anything...

    Wondering about Lane bulk Black Cavendish...

    Smoker's Pride and Virginia Gold bulk Black Cavendish are both made by Lane. Smoker's Pride Black Cavendish is pretty much Lane BCA in a bag. What's Virginia Gold Black Cavendish? Lane LL-7?

    Hardcastle Camden Approximate Date.

    Hi all, I got this Hardcastle Camden from Paul's Pipe Shop. Am I correct that this "British Made" stamp is sometime pre-Parker, '50s-1967? This is a fantastic smoker. It has some chips and dents, but it's got major character. I got it brand new and unsmoked. It's also an Opera, which I'd...

    Questions About Both Mountbatten and Digby Pipes.

    Hello all, I searched the forum and found some old discussions about these, but not the specific answer to these questions and I was hoping someone might know. Pipedia doesn't have exact dates. 1. Does anyone know how long Charatan continued to use the Mountbatten name for seconds/apprentice...

    Long Time Lurker, First Time Poster

    Hi all. I have lurked in these pages a hundred times from google searches when looking things up, so I finally registered here. I usually only post to a pipe group on Facebook, but they don't always have all the answers about provenance of old pipes. Anyway, I first started smoking a pipe in...
