14oz of Uhle's Blend 00
Grabbed these recently to try. Pretty sure they weren't intended for tobacco smokers but they should work fine. The hemp wick is pretty neat. Neutral flavor and should extend the life of the butane bic lighter. Also won't be heart braking if I lost one like if I lost a nicer pipe lighter haha.
Ordered a few tins of Balkan Sobranie. Can't wait for it to arrive on Wed.
This is one of those "gee I hope I guessed right" eBay finds...and it turns out I did, although it doesn't take much to spot that the Yokshire interchangeable pipe set is a rebranded (Sears, I think) Dr. Grabow Viking set. I wish the stem had been included, but I'll happily settle for the 5 bowls. Here's the set next to a Viking set that I picked up last year. I've got several like-new Viking stems, both bent and straight, so I think my radiator pipe itch is sufficiently scratched for now.
Very nice! Can't have enough bowls haha

Not when you get 'em for less than $10 apiece lol. They make good travel pipes.

Stopped by a local Brick and Mortar and found this on the shelf crying because it had no home.
The Kendal Plug is from 25 June 2018
The Sam's Flake and Best Brown is 26 October 2018
The Escudo is 22 May 2017
The 5 year Matured Virginia is apparently current production, but there is no code of any kind that I can find for dating.

Wow. Very lucky finding that Kendal plug, especially with age.

I think I'll go back tomorrow and grab another box or two. Hard to find.
I mean. I would take the four. Haha. I haven’t seen Kendal plug in four years

Holy crap, I totally misjudged the size of these Curly Blocks!
They are ginormous.

Just splurged on a new vintage pipe, a Keyser "Hygienic" billiard:
Here's the info on Keyser pipes from Pipedia: Keyser - Pipedia - https://pipedia.org/wiki/Keyser An interesting design, though what I like is the walnut stain and the sort-of military mount. Any of you have one of these?

If I had a nickel for every time I’ve heard someone say something similar
Feel like I just won the lottery haha. Been wanting another Neil Monier pipe (garagemadepipetool) but never was able to grab one I liked before they sold lol. They seem to sell almost immediately. I was able to snag this natural sandblasted lovat just now. Can't wait to break it in!
You’re going to really like it. All 3 of mine are excellent smokers.
I'm looking forward to it for sure. This will be my 4th. I have 2 morta and one briar. His skill have increased quite a bit since my last one though haha. This thing looks nice!
