Starting off my smoking day with a bowl of circa year 2000 Edward G. Robinson's Pipe Blend in a 2014 Basil Meadows smooth slight bend squashed tomato with an aluminum band and a black pearl acrylic stem in the military mount style. Ice water and bergs is my drink.

Afternoon all, I had some of the Captains Mystic Blend earlier in the MM Marcus. I’m loving it and interested in what else the Captain might have to offer as I’m very fond of the Ten Russians too.
I’m about to fire up some HH Burley Flake in the Nording Sailor while I jar up some blends in the latest batch of Kilner Jars image.jpg

Hearth & Home AJ's VaPer in Ferndown Reo * with silver band and wide tapered vulcanite stem. I've been smoking this pipe for over 15 years but for the life of me I can't remember the name of the shape. I just polished and cleaned this and my other Ferndown pipes.

I emailed Les Wood last night to ask him about the pipe... shape and approx. years he might've made that shape lmao here's his reply...
Hi what shape ?? Never mad to a known shape what ever the block of Briar looked like gave me the shape at to what way the grain went, if you bought in 2006 that was about the time when it was made Big Mistake on my part never dated them considering I was at Dunhills for 18 years and we dated every pipe made their all i can say I made them to last enjoy

PC Match My Mixture 965 in a Kaywoodie Saxon sandblast straight panel with a chair leg stem, one of my American factory pipes. The match on this blend is well done, a lively medium smoke. Vajda, thank you for relaying the email from Les Wood. One of my treasures is a smooth Ferndown bent billiard given me by a Forums member. It's good to "hear" from the carver himself, and about his years with Dunhill.
