HJ,thank you for sharing.
You've got me wanting to know more!

I've been wanting a cherrywood sitter but with a more traditional tortoiseshell Cumberland stem or else just ebonite.

If I buy another meer it will either be a 100 yr old or a replica of Lee Van Cleef's personal meer; some are better than others. They are artificially colored. It is said he always smoked his personal pipes in his movies.

Lost too young!

I have the first tin version of Friends Pipe Tobacco. I still need to find the later tin.

I ordered a couple varieties of tobacco plant sets yesterday. Going to try growing & blending some leaf this yr. I ordered plants because I'm about a month too late to start seeds inside.

I bought a steel whistle and steel wouldn't
whistle.
So I bought a tin whistle.
And now I tin whistle!"

Happy smokes HJ!

Briar or Meerschaum? Is the crack in the bowl or stummel?
Send an email with good pics to Dave & he can advise:
