Any pipe smokers?

[gcbailey]

Are any of you pipe smokers? If so what's your favorite pipe and what's your favorite blend? My favorite pipe is a Savinelli churchwarden and my favorite tobacco is McClelland Wilderness.

I have a couple dozen Savinelli's, about half of them are Rhodesian style, which I prefer. Do you smoke while hunting? I've been looking for a lightweight pipe that I can clench while bird hunting. The Savinelli's are just a bit too heavy for me to clench for very long.

When I was in Ontario a few years ago, I was absolutely blown away by the tax rate on tobacco products. The same cigar for $10 in the US is like $40 in Canada. Even with the snow peso conversion, that’s expensive.

I was in Ontario for what became a genuine cluster F**K of a moose hunt and even back then Copenhagen was $27 per can and all tobacco products were hidden behind a grey steel curtain of shame.

As for pipes, I prefer Peterson and their tins of tobacco.

The savinelli 321 is pretty short and light. Can burn a bit hot because of how small they are. Seems much lighter than the 673 ks. Stem is a bit fat , but easy enough to clench.

This is a vest pocket pipe, smaller you will find, but too uncomfortable for me

I've seen those and wondered how well they smoked.

I occasionally enjoy smoking a pipe, I'm a cigar smoker, but a pipe smoke aroma brings back memories of my grandpa smoking a pipe and sitting next to him so I could enjoy the aroma. I don't have any fancy pipes, I don't really remember how I got the ones I have. I may have to pony up and get a real pipe like a Savinelli.

Tobacco is one of the hardest things to quit.. I’ve been eyeing these:

Quit the Kool Filter Kings and the pipe in 1991, don’t miss the Kools, but sure miss the pipe. I smoked a lot of Prince Albert and an English mixture of flue cured, very smoky tobacco. My wife bought me this pipe for my birthday in 1998.

I’m a fan of Elliott Nachwalter pipes and L J Peretti Co. tobacco.
