Peterson 01 Saint Patrick’s day 1998 and some BCA for the evening.

Stokkebye Cube Cut in a blasted Carey Magic Inch apple with a, believe it or not, nylon cumberland stem. Great smoke! Bourbon on the rocks and classical music.

 

[JimInks]

You really like this pipe...

I sure do! Waited over thirty years to get a Charatan that William Conrad owned, and I'm lucky to have two of them.

G. Smith & Sons OLD LONDON SWEET CUT and OLD LONDON ORIENTAL MIX + group 3 Dunhill 'Churchwarden' from 1981:-

Smoked a coin of escudo - actually enjoyed it today. Now on a bowl of penny farthing. I struggle with straight virginia - but, toss in some perique and other condiments - I’m good. Still favor bayou morning though. But, penny farthing is just easy to smoke and I admit I like the shag cut. Could smoke a lot of it without tiring out the palate. Might add a few tins to the stable to always have around.

For me the Bayou Morning is superb. Enjoy!

PS41 in a Rossi 8645.

Cube Cut is delicious isn't it? I wish all those old codgers of yesteryear could have found this instead of the OTC's.

Oh, I do. Easily an every day smoke...and something I could actually smoke all day without tiring. Some blends just wear out the tongue too often, not this one.

Some prizes in life are worth the wait. And, a usable item rather than shrouded in acrylic never to be touched. Awesome.

That Charatan is my favorite..I think it's so neat how it has the carved out channels...for a brand so well known for its classic lines and flame grain...comes this apple with dents in it?!? It's just awesome!!

 

[JimInks]

Now smoking Wilke Peanut Butter and Chocolate in a light brown 1979 rusticated medium bend Italian Sir Jeffrey Dublin (GBD second) sitter with a flared top and yellow saddle stem. This may get me to dinner time.

That's a very nice piece of history! The channel cuts sure make them look comfy in the hand!

They do, although I have smoke a tad slowly when I get near the bottom of the freehand because there's less wood there.

Enjoying some 2018 Heinrich’s Curly Block in a Willmer Canadian shape, again.

Some day, someone will be posting your pipes as an ode to the craft. May it be in the far distant future!
