Check Your Tin Before You Dig In

[AcesAndEights]

Yep...me too! Now I immediately decant to a jar before I dig in.

Ha! Yep. I dump a little on a plate to load now

 

[alaskanpiper]

It happens. Got bit by a tin pretty early on, and have been much more careful since!

Oregon has had self service for a year or more. Not all stations are self service.

I figured it must've taken something pretty major like that to lure you out of the 'bank.

But we're all evading the central issue here: if you smoked only Buoy Gold, your finger would be just fine.

Logic always prevails! Well, anywhere except a pipe forum, at any rate...

 

[verporchting]

Ouch. My Esoterica Cardiff had a nice soft golden foil bag (neener neener ) that didn’t hurt a bit

You have to check your tins is true. Only takes a few seconds.

And legend spoke of a tobacco so daemonic that it extracts a blood sacrifice from whosoever openeth a tin therewith. Behold! Haddo's Curse!

 

[Sobrbiker]

All the gear, all the time.

 

[Roach1]

Yep...me too! Now I immediately decant to a jar before I dig in.

Happened here also.

 

[woodsroad]

Man, you got off easy.

 

[prairiedruid]

Actually the defective edge is due to the tin being a cheap counterfeit made in a sweatshop run by evil leprechauns.

Or perhaps made by one of the cults of Khorne!

After the class action suit, it will be known as:

Haddo’s Digit

 

[ThermionicScott]

This thread is timely, because I was just thinking that I might smoke my next C&D/GLP blend straight out of the tin rather than faffing about with jarring it. I am suitably warned.

 

[woodsroad]

I’ve never had a blood-letting incident with C&D tins. I can’t say the same about Raviolios.

 

[cosmicfolklore]

Wait, Sable has a tin that he didn't switch over into a jar? What's going on!

 

[Peter Turbo]

Just opened this tin of Haddo's Delight and sliced open my index finger when I was scooping some tobacco. First time this has happened to me, but a good reminder to check things out before engaging. Check the metal edge along the top.

This just happened to me a couple months ago as well, got me real good, drew blood, actually have a small scar on my index finger from it. Now I just stick my knife in there, dump the stuff out on a plate and into a mylar or jar it goes.

I should have made a post, it could have prevented your cut!

 

[verporchting]

Did the blood and finger detritus add to the flavor or not? Inquiring minds want to know.

It worked great in the Middle Ages, so why not now?

 

[verporchting]

Nobody told me pipe smoking was a blood sport!

 

[lraisch]

Haddo's Delight? Are you sure it wasn't Cult Blood Red Moon?
