I'm not nearly that witty. BUT, now that you mention it the next bowlful will be! Cheers! -Greg P.S. Capt. Black Regular in a vintage Barclay-Rex Apple.

Middleton's Cherry Blend in a Dr. Grabow Freehand followed by Captain Black Regular in a 1960's vintage Dr. Grabow bent Savoy Cheers! -Greg

Greetings from one board newbie to another! Although I'm in Ohio, I'm only about 40 minutes from downtown Pittsburgh and about 25 minutes from Robinson. Can you point me to any good pipe and tobacco shops around town? Thanks!! -Greg

Had some MacB Navy Flake in my Pete Kapet '6' and some Boswell's 'Majestic 586' in my Marxman Benchmade. N.B. I am about 99.999% certain that the Boswell's is simply Lane BCA and 1-Q blended 50/50 and given a new name. Not that that is a bad thing, mind you, I made a pound of it myself. BUT...

Great review, thanks for posting it! I recently got a couple of ounces of this, too, along with several of their aromatic offerings. I haven't tried the NW yet, as I am on an aro kick now, and, honestly, I'm finding that I just like aros better than Englishes for the most part. But, I'll look...

Exactly! And to this point, I noticed on pipesandcigars that any orders from within NY would have upwards of a 75% tax added onto the order. How on earth do they get any walk-in retail business? Needless to say, if anyone in NY is looking to order from pipesandcigars, I may be able to help...

Thanks for the input, guys, you are probably right. Plus, there are a couple of Savinellis in that range that I've had my eye on anyway. :D

Just had some MacB Club Blend in my new Dr. Grabow Duke. This pipe is a lot smaller than I thought it would be but I think it might be just right for a few coins of Club Blend or a flake of Erinmore. Not much more than that, though.

FWIW, there is a sealed tin on the bay right now. -Greg

Gents, I was wondering if anyone had taken advantage of this deal(?) on pipesandcigars and what types of pipes one ends up and what the quality is like. They are sold out right now but I am considering going that route, as well as buying more Dr. Grabows, to beef up my rotation. Thanks, in...

That's RDJr, my hair is shorter. ;-)

Howdy, Natch! Yes, I do use a DE. I have two No Date Code (i.e. 1949) Gillette Super Speeds that I use along with Derby blades and an assortment of Omega boar brushes. For soap I use Omega and Proraso in the tubes as well as P.160 and Cella. Cheers! -Greg

Just wanted to thank you gents for a very helpful thread. I just got my first two tins of flakes today (Erinmore and MacB's Navy) and had a bit of a battle with the Navy but the few minutes I had it going just right were simply excellent. Hopefully will have better luck once I use what I've...

Topped off a great day with some Boswell's No Bite Delite in my Savinelli Antique Shell Author. :)

I am glad to see the positive comments about this movie. I absolutely LOVED it and cannot wait for the sequel! IMHO, if one reads the originals closely, and even examines the few illustrations available, I believe that Guy Richie and RDJr got Holmes spot on. Much more so, again IMHO than any...

Howdy, Chaps! Greg here, checking in from Steubenville, Ohio. I'm glad to have found this forum and have benefited from some of the posted reviews and comments in the forums over the last few days, so thank you all for that. I took up the pipe in earnest a bit more than a year ago and have...
