New Pipe

Posted by ArmedGeek on Tuesday, November 17, 2009 in Personal, Pipe Smoking

Recently I purchased a new pipe. This is a “premium” pipe from a respected pipe maker.

This is a $75 pipe. Now, the problem is … it’s kinda tough to pack tobacco and light afire a $75 pipe. I’ve not actually smoked this yet. I have not decided what sort of tobacco I want to introduce to this work of fucking art.

    Very nice burling, and shape.

    Nice shape. I’d have a hard time setting a $75 item on fire as well, unless it was fireworks. :)

  3. I dunno. My Montecristos wouldn’t burn too well in that bowl.

    Nice pipe.

    I’ve always wanted to get one of those Sherlock Holmes style pipes, the kind that rolls down. I’m afraid, though, I have no experience with them at all, and it would probably end up sitting on my mantel as a decoration.

    As far as tobacco goes, my only experience is with cigars. Nothing better than sitting outside on a nice cool evening, with a glass of brandy, a nice medium to strong Cohiba, and some good friends to pass the time with.

    Believe it or not there’s a whole lot of pipe related videos on youtube.

    I’m with the Friar on this one.

    The Sherlock Holmes-style pipe is known as a calabash. Googling around for calabash or holmes calabash should bring up a few.

    Are you kidding? For a $75 work of fucking art, the only appropriate fuel is $500/ounce hydroponically-grown Sinsemilla. :)
