Nice, although I prefer to treat all my medallion type blends as a round flake.


I just rub and press them with my fingers untill I make a ball with good packing and place it in my chamber.
Requires a few more tamps after firing but I find them more tastefull.

I used to use one of those miniature mezzaluna blades to chop up flake tobacco, but ever since one of my kids broke the blade screwing around with it, I've just been breaking it up by hand. I hadn't thought of one of these - great idea!

I started that way with coins and it seems to work well. Flakes I mix it up a bit at times though might rub them out or multiple folds lengthwise then fold in half with a twist and stuff... enjoyable either way but folding and stuffing definitely yields longer smoke, for me anyway.
