great looking pipe Troy

love the "golf ball" lattice

01-12-2010, 01:47 PM

My first pipe landed here yesterday; a Meer by Fikri Baki.

Meer because it's forgiving and I'm new at it, plus little ghosting until the stable fills with alternatives. Watching you all, I know it will... ; ' ) I chose Baki because everyone seems to agree that they're good quality, so I don't expect any behavioral issues.

Also grabbed a tin of McConnell's Scottish Flake (smokes nice), and something the fellow behind the counter liked (ok, Walnut, but its a decent enough blend from what I can tell at this point!).

Nice pipe Troy. Love Italian pipes. My local JR is having a pipe sale on February 20th (national pipe day) and they have a bunch of Mastro de Paja's that I will probably pickup.

Just ordered my first Boswell along with some Northwoods and Christmas Cookie! It's pretty similar to this pipe, but the color will be a little lighter and mine will have a yellowish stem.

Savvy · 02-22-2010, 11:01 AM

I'm currently looking just about every day at a Cavicchi...hopefully someone buys it soon, so I don't get to

Edit: Went to look at it today, and someone bought it...All right I can save some money for a little longer...

That's a sweet looking pipe, Doug!

When you tire of it .......

You know where to find me!

WyGuy · 02-24-2010, 10:07 AM

Just received a nice sampler from pipeandcigars. Hoping my new pipe shows up today as well, but we'll see.

Sampler:
Rolando's Own
Virginia Spice
Marble Kake
Anniversary Kake
AJ's VaPer

WyGuy · 02-24-2010, 03:17 PM

So, here's my new Boswell. Unfortunately this is the best picture I could take, only have my phone... It's much lighter than it shows in the picture, have one bowl through it so far!

BigFrank · 02-27-2010, 10:57 AM

Well, forgot to take pics before I stash my recent order away ( speed was the name of the game, I flew this one under the radar from the oldlady...)

Peterson Bulldog Kapet (150)

For a shade under 50$...Smoked a few bowls in it so far and it's a good pipe. Actually planning on buying another from the series. I have a few with the silver band, and I honestly feel that the 25$ price difference may only be from the silver band.

Baccys-
Christmas Cheer 2009 x 2
Telegraph Hill 2oz
Union Square 2oz
Chelsea Morning 2oz
Escudo Navy Deluxe x2
Blackwoods Flake 50g
Matured Virginia No. 25
Also, snagged two cheap-o lighters and few packs of cleaners.

Couple new blends to try out, Telegraph Hill will be a revisit. Got another order inbound of some more cellar worthy tins and a couple lbs of bulk...

BigFrank · 03-18-2010, 04:37 PM

I have no idea why but I pulled the Trigger on a b30 St patty's day peterson and two tins today (McC VA #22 and GLP's Laurel Heights) ...Dont ask why...
