New Pipe Stand
I got my 12 year old son a 3d printer for Christmas this year. He is big into stuff like that so i figured why not? He came to me today with a pipe stand he made for me. I was thrilled to see what he printed for me. Now my favorite pipe has its own stand and will sit on the fireplace mantle.- Amarkey

Bought A New/Old Pipe
I was just browsing through Ebay last night, no intention of buying. That was until this Savinelli Linea 76 caught my eye. Price point on it was reasonable so i pulled the trigger. It'll look real good sitting next to my Non Pareil Dublin and even better when im smoking it. -

When to Throw a Pipe Out
I bought an Ebay special a while back. Its a Savinelli dry system pipe. Looked very nice from the pics, i glanced over the description and didnt catch a few key items. The pipe had started to burn out and was over boared to correct. In doing so the pipe has very thin walls now. Ive only smoked... -
Edward Maison Black Truffle
So the B&M store in Ann Arbor Michigan, Edward Maison, has a blend called Black Truffle. It is a very nice aromatic blend. If i had to guess it is a mix of black cavendish, latakia with a vanilla top note. Tonight i tried to match it with what I had on hand. I think I have a close match using...- Amarkey

Super Value Buttered Rum
This is the first pipe tobacco I ever tried. I have to admit starting off I hated this tobacco and convinced myself that it was picked up off the floor and shoved into a bag. Fast forward to where I am now in my pipe smoking journey and I have to say its not a bad tobacco. I will say that I have...- Amarkey

Stepping Outside of Aromatics
I started off smoking a pipe several months ago. I took it slow at first and started with a Dr. Grabow and a bag of Super Value Rum pipe tobacco. Gotta say that tobacco was horrid and i didnt much care for it. I have found the aromatics that i enjoy smoking but my curious and adventurous mind is...- Amarkey

Good Score?
Recently got this GBD 508 on a estate sale. Got it for $18.75. From what i can tell the pipe was only smoked a handful of times and the stem has very little signs of bite marks. It however does appear to have been dropped as it has a few scratches and the rim has a very minor nick. Overall im... -
