I love it, my favorite pipe right now.Your bent bulldog looks a lot like a Savinelli 673 Saint Nicholas 2023. How do you like it?
(I have the 2022 just a few poststhat way)

Beautiful pipe. Great balance of proportions, colour and texture.
I saw that one on his Instagram. I’ve been eyeing MiscoiPipes for some time, planning to get one too.
That one is a beauty!
Be well!
That’s odd, I’ve looked at all of his pipes on Instagram, never noticed this one, or any others with the dot on the bowl.
It’s just for decoration? Show a shot please looking at it...
Passing the quarter mark on this bowl of year 2022 Watch City Blue Ridge Special in a straight smooth ebony post-WW2 LHS Sterncrest 91 bulldog with a sterling silver band, a diamond shank and a tapered black vulcanite stem.
McConnell Scottish Flake in a H Pipes Billiard with Silver accent and a White Russian (Caucasian) as my drink.
Delightful, still night. Match-lit a bowl of Peretti British in the Brulor Hecht Optime billiard.
Kicking back with a relaxing pipeful of Gawith Hoggarth Kendal Black Cherry in the Savinelli 401 Churchwarden. I've been enjoying this tobacco so much that I've decided to make it part of my regular rotation, and I just ordered tins of GH's Rum Flake and Bob's Chocolate Flake to try. Lakelands ahoy!
Now smoking Wilke No. 72 in a pre-1974 dark brown straight Larus & Brother Co. Signature billiard with a nickel band and a tapered black vulcanite stem with the initials LCR on the top of the stem. This blend was smoked by Walter Cronkite. Ice water and bergs is my drink. Working and listening to Dick Tracy from my radio collection. Not a very good show.
Sutliff States of Virginia in a Bay Denmark Apple with a Cumberland stem.
I mixed the 3 together, and one word comes to mind; Smooth.
I’m really impressed how nice these VAs turned out, especially the Stoved.
Be well everyone!

Just finished work, and this bowl of Wilke Gentry Royal Blend No. 2 in a black sandblast quarter bend undated Briarcraft (Dr. Grabow made) Wimbledon 810 author with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Time to check on the ferals.
Passing the quarter mark of this bowl of year 2014 Peter Stokkebye Luxury Bullseye Flake in a smooth dark brown quarter bend post-1935 KBB/Kaywoodie New England Briar Pipe Company Flagship 83B Rhodesian with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Fed Daisy the Feral Princess and Tomato the Brave. The others are elsewhere.
Reusing a previous picture cause it's too darn late and I'm too sleepy to turn on the lights and take a fresh one, but I'm just puffing away on some Haunted Bookshop in the Dr. Grabow Lark before bed. I remember when I first started pipe smoking I absolutely hated Haunted Bookshop, but somehow it eventually managed to become my favorite non-aromatic blend. Funny how tastes can change like that.
Nearing the first third of this bowl of D&R Windsail in an 1890s-early 1900s dark brown smooth straight JD (Joseph B. Desjardins) billiard with filigree metal work with an amberish saddle stem and orific bit. That'll do it for me today.
@HRPufnstuf The Clay King recommends the Erinmore Flake; it's a good flavourful, delicious and slow burning baccy, not hard to light especially with an ember from a blacksmith's forge!
About to light up this Brigham Rideau Canal pipe of the year 2022 with HU JU-52 cut with HH Rustica. Woodford Reserve Rye.
A brisk 40° to start the morning off. What great weather!! Some Granger in this Savinelli La Corta.
Enjoy the day everyone!!
