Just wondering. I realize my information will be skewed since I am posting on a PIPES forum but just wondering. How many are pipes only vs pipes and cigars?

Pipes, unless my pops pulls out Cohiba. I will never in this world turn down a Cohiba.

Both. I smokes pipes more, however, for two reason. First, cost - cigars are really out of my budget, but I do keep at least some cigarillos or a couple full ones around most of the time. Second, ease - a cigar commits you to 1.5-2 hours. A pipe, I can toss in my pocket without fear of it breaking in half or tearing. A pipe can be stopped and re-lit very simply. I'm sure the list goes on.
But, to answer the OP: Pipes & Cigars for me.

I've smoked cigars for 30 years. Cigarettes off and on during that stretch. And now, after several false starts over the decades, I've become a confirmed pipe smoker. I don't see myself giving up cigars though. They scratch different itches. I love a long, leisurely pipe smoke. I love the range of pipe tobacco types and flavors available. But I love the big rich flavors, and enormous smoke volume of a big ring gauge cigar too. And the relative ease of smoking a cigar -- no need for tools beyond a good cutter. Nothing to clean in the end.

I smoke both. I started smoking pipes most of the time, then at some point smoked more cigars and my pipes took a back seat.
That's the story of my life ... I can't imagine no cigars ... and unlike undecagon, since I smoke mostly a robusto size cigar, I'm not really committed to a longer period of time than I am with a pipe ... which is really a moot point for me anyway since either is generally something I do of an evening after dinner when time isn't of the essence.

Both. For a long while it was more cigars than pipe. For the past 9 months, much more pipe than cigars.

I quit cigarettes maybe four years ago, I don't miss them. I like cigars about two a week, or when I walk the dog. I do about two pipes a day, one after lunch and one after dinner.

both - started pipe abut 8 or so years ago, cigars 11 or 12 years ago. Stopped the pipe for many years recently started back. I now smoke one cigar in the evening after dinner and too much pipe during other times.
A good Cuban cigar is still tops for me

Samanden: I'm a pipe guy till I die! I'm that guy in the cigar lounge smoking his pipe like he's better than everyone else. Excellent. LOL
Pipe only for me. I try cigars every once in a while. But I like the pipe tobacco more.
