    Opening A Tin? Show Us!

    Recently, I was checking on some old tins of W.Ø. Larson Old Belt Ready Rubbed Virginia from 2005. I touched the lid on one of the tins & the lid flew off! Revealed underneath that lid was a significantly bulging but otherwise intact foil cover. As I popped the aluminum cover with my...

    Opening A Tin? Show Us!

    Opened my last tin of A&C Petersen Caledonian Virginia Flake from 2002, a mild but delicious straight Virginia long out of production. I definitely agree with Pipestud's review from tobaccoreviews.com: "A very nice and gentle Virginia flake that has a little strength and a lot of flavor...

    Czech Tool

    I have a bunch of different tampers & pipe tools, but by far the one I use the most is the Czech tool. I've found that I mainly use the tamper on the Czech tool, with the pick coming in a close second. I never use the spoon. I've eliminated the need to swivel the various parts of the Czech...

    Possibility of Cracking Old Briar

    I've purchased & restored many, many old estate pipes for personal use over a 20+ year period using the salt/alcohol method combined with thorough cleaning of the shank & stem. I've reamed the estate pipes down to almost bare wood & rinsed the bowls with Everclear after the salt/alcohol...

    What Are Your Favorite Pipes To Collect?

    My Grandfather helped me to start smoking a pipe. The last pipe he owned & smoked was a WDC Wellington that I still have. About 20 years ago I started collecting WDC pipes & even though I've thinned the herd via eBay the last few years I still have a significant number of WDC pipes. I'm also...
