ya I smoked about 2 ounces over the course of a week, really enjoy the stuff. Next order I might get a pound and store it. 8oz might go to quick!

Nice tobak selections, Bi'ank. I'm sure that new pipe is up to the task.

Over the past two weeks I bought a Peterson's Sterling Silver 68, A large Caminetto, and I just bought two Neerup's, not too mention another 3 Robert McConnell blends to try: London Mixture/blend, Maduro, and Black and Gold...I'm so close to a divorce!

At least you will have plenty of good smoking to endure it!

To be honest she's a good'un, and I'm actually further for divorce than i would like to admit...I''ve really built my collection of 35 odd pipes - all new on a budget of about $2.500, with a few high grades picked up for $100-$200.

Sounds good. 2500, that makes me not feel so bad about my splurge this month. Although I have my eyes set on a Nording freehand for 100+...I guess it only gets worse hahaha

It's all relevant as they say....but $100 plus for a Nording is sound. Seriously, us pipe buyers these days, despite the credit crunch, are being offered outstanding craftsmanship with real man hours involved. It is a buyers market. My golden rule is don't go over $200 and always know you can have a nice smoker for $25, NEW.

You missed H&H Anniversary Kake though. If you haven't tried it yet and like Escudo, do pick it up. 4 oz can be had for a little under a ten spot.

Nice order, enjoy.
