    Kirsten Pipes

    Yes Steve, they are still being made I think and they have a devoted following. I have 3 and do like them especially when traveling. I think you would do much better to sell them individualy.

    Welcome Paul. Where are you finding tobacco in SE Idaho? We had a shop in IF and Poctello in the 90s. The IF was closed when I left. Is the Pocatello one still going?

    What to Feed a Wide Mouth Bowl

    The prevailing opinion is that the wide shallow chamber is best for complex blends. So the "English" Latakia perique blends are recommended. But, I have seen some that like Virginia blends in the 320, prince and pot shapes. Soooo YMMV Enjoy 8)

    A Falcon for Christmas

    I do believe, no experience, that they are very thin as the stem/shank is more narrow then most pipes. I just use regular cleaners in my Dr. Grabow Viking. Also, the viking stem is removable while the Falcon was not meant to be removed. But, the Falcon and bowls are still made.

    A Falcon for Christmas

    The viking and the Kirsten are both good choices. There is no metal taste or hot spots with mine. Have no fear and a happy smoke.
