Hey everyone, found this wealth of knowledge and love what everyones doing here so I thought I should join. I used to smoke pipes a couple years ago and then got into cigars, now im thinking of getting back into pipes with the occasional cigar. Look forward to learning and trying new things!

Welcome! I grew up in FLA myself, but haven't lived there since I was 17. The cost-per-smoke for a lot of good pipe tobacco blends is more favorable than lots of cigars, I find. You don't have to spend a ton of money on the pipe itself, if you don't want to.
Thanks! Where about in florida?? Yea Ive noticed the cost isnt as bad per smoke and theres just something about the ritual of packing and lighting and everything that just isnt there with cigars. Still good, just different.
Near Lake City (ever heard that Tom Petty song where he sings something about playing a show in a "redneck bar in Lake City"?).
Haven't been back in years, though, and probably would barely recognize it if I did.
Hello from Chesterfield, Derbyshire, England, UK.
I got into smoking clay pipes after watching English Civil War & 18th / 19th Century Redcoat reenactment.
I thought you might like this promotional video for The Sealed Knot made in 2016: Notice the man smoking the clay pipe 40 seconds in.
Looks a good cloud of smoke in the last one!
I like your profile picture of the Napoleonic redcoat military uniform.
I've got a redcoat uniform I bought in Matlock before the lockdown started and it looks very smart. I can't wait to wear it and smoke a clay pipe of baccy!
Lutz?? We’re neighbors my friend. Originally from Tampa, but now out in land o lakes! Glad to know there’s people here from my area.
Gosh you are right down the road from me!
Well just look for an untidy looking dude either chewing tobacco or smoking an odd looking pipe!
Welcome from Western Canada! I have a sister, two nieces and a nephew in different communities all within an hour of where you are.
Well when you wanna get away from that cold up there when this is all over come say hello to us down here!
That day will come! Spring just arrived this week, still had reasonable amount of snow on the ground last weekend. In fairness, sometimes Spring does arrive the end of March.
