    The Case Against Whole Leaf

    I am considering trying my hand because I live in Canada and just paid $88 plus tax for a tin of ABF. Ordering online is easy but duty is a killer and usually adds $50-70 per order of 2 50G tins. Between availability and price, America is probably the best place in the world to be a pipe smoker.

    ***What Are You Smoking, June 2024?***

    Smoking some very old SG Golden Glow that I rehydrate a while ago in a Savinelli Punto Oro 622. The stem needs a lot of attention but I think the pipe mud fix on the floor of the chamber will hold well

    Fury vs Usyk 🥊

    Wilder was never the same after the 2nd fight vs Fury. I really do hope he is done. As they said after the knockout, he was not a skilled fighter but he made his way with heart, determination and one of the hardest hitting right hands of this time or maybe ever

    Fury vs Usyk 🥊

    It's a good looking card top to bottom but I will only catch the last two fights. Hrgovic was once a top prospect in my eyes but after Zhang brutalized him I think he is toast. I'm taking Dubois to beat him bad. UD decision for Dubois. I expect Wilder to hang them up after the beating he takes...

    Full Virginia Flake

    I have enough FVF I think, but I grabbed some Navy Flake. I may also pick up some Balkan Flake.

    My First Taste of Orientals

    Try low country virginia oriental. Super cheap and very reliable. If you don't some larakia, try red rapparre from rattray

    Instant Oxidation?

    Be careful with the sandpaper. I would recommend investing in some micro mesh pads. Have patience and remember that less is more.

    Question on 4 Noggins 5/23/24

    It's been a few years since I have order from 4N but it was always smooth on their end. I had a package rejected by customs once, but 4N sent it back to me for no extra charge.

    Initial Enthusiasm Resulted in Acquisition Disorders

    I also have pipes that I haven't smoked and probably won't. Some are collectors and some are not. I have a box of about 20 pipes that I am planning on sending to SP for store credit but I can't get myself to actually do it 🙃 haha. In fact, this weekend I took 2 pipes outbof the box and didn't...
