I see this and get pipe envy. Maybe, many years down the road, someone will sell one.

Telegraph Hill in my HS Studio Elegant Bulldog.

I had the very occasional hankering for Latakia. So Penzance in a 1913 Orlik 
Not a fan of Latakia, but I love that pipe!
I haven’t been paying attention but did you try your 3Ps in the bantam bowl yet?
Not yet, but thanks for reminding my aged brain! I will and will let you know!
Actually, I’ve never dealt with a plug in 50 years of pipe smoking. I have some very sharp knives in my quiver. Any suggestions?
Relaxing after a wonderful salad, chicken legs and snow peas dinner with the last slice of chocolate meringue pie for dessert. I'm a quarter of the way through this bowl of year 2012 Rolando’s Own in a smooth straight early ‘60s Lane era “William Conrad” Charatan Executive Extra Large stretch apple with diagonal channel cuts on the lower right and left of the bowl along with a black vulcanite double comfort saddle stem. Ice water and bergs is my drink.
Cornell & Diehl Epiphany in an Altinay translucent meerschaum billiard
I shave off as thin as possible and then rub it out further, almost like a shag cut. Or you can slice a bit thicker, still thin though, and then turn your board around and cut through your flakes/chunks into a rough cube cut. I use whatever is handy, so mainly a Swiss Army knife.
Test driving the new KBV blends. Starting with Fairway Driver from my Jason Patrick
Just finished a bowl of HH Burley Flake in a Radice rind hawkbill.
Mac Baren Golden Extra in the Foyard Rhodesian. Still enjoying the below-normal temps, as long as they may last. Bird report: California quail (parents & youngsters!), California scrub-jay, Steller's jay, California towhee, House finch, Western kingbird, Bullock's oriole, American robin, White-breasted nuthatch, and Red-tailed hawk. The cicadas are finally dying off, which will give a nice burst of nutrients to the soil for miles around.
My favorite meal, eggplant parmesan, is on the menu for tonight, with a Grifone Primitivo Zinfandel red (Trader Joe's). ?

Sir Walter Raleigh in a legend Rob Roy. Hope all is well.
Dunhill Flake in an 1895 Tom Gooding with Amber Stem
Are those double repair bands? Or is one on the shank and the other on the stem? Was curious about that when I saw a pic the other day.
No repair bands. Just silver accents. The amber is just colored clear and cloudy.
