I have 4 Pete's this will be my 5th. A lot of people are really raving about the Danish style. I thought it was too good to pass up.

A little...:-)
But I have read good reviews of this blend and I am hoping it still smokes good.

I had a little financial windfall this month and went a little PAD happy...I think I bought five pipes since St. Patrick's Day, and I have a few more I want coming up on ebay...

Peterson Deluxe Classic 221 (bent billiard)
Peterson St. Patrick's Day 2010 B30
Stanwell Matte Brown Blowfish
Mario Grandi Freehand (sort of a partially rusticated blowfish)
Savinella Sigla (new smaller autograph line...hand-made bent billiard)

...and I've got a bid in on a vintage Kaywoodie that I hope to win...whew...I better slow down... pictures to follow...

indeed... i see no point in it.
honestly, tonight i was going to have a bowl of something with a little latakia in it... i realized i don't have anything open, and i quickly looked in my cellar (closet shelf) and the only thing i saw was 1 tin of dunhill EMP.

Got this on ebay...never expected it to be as huge as it is...the main body of the pipe is about as large as a tennis ball, the chamber is so deep that if I stick my first finger in it it goes to the second knuckle and it's far too heavy to clench in your teeth...this is a hand-holder...and with that deep chamber will be great for flakes...

Marc, that's a beauty... Is that a Mario Grandi?
[Reply]

Very nice pipe indeed Marc. Inspiring me to buy another pipe. Not sure if that's good or not...
