Kendal Flake in a vintage Workman clay - a fitting pipe / tobacco choice. It should taste even better lit from a blacksmith's forge Going to pack the churchwarden for the weekend; I don't want to break it!

Uh oh! Bottom of the barrel for this tin of Steamworks24! Tasting mighty fine in the little clay. Wish I’d have picked up more of this one. The rest of mine will be moved to the back row or it will disappear pretty quickly!View attachment 327642

Nice use of the cross grain.

Textbook grain orientation of a fugu blowfish.


I was there when it was carved a decade ago, and have regretted not convincing Bruce to blast it ever since. Smooth pipes just feel and look incomplete.
