Thanks, Chris, interesting read. One thing he didn't mention is the difference between block meerschaum and pressed meerschaum. I suspect, but do not know for certain, that the bowls for most metal pipes are of the pressed variety.
An old Guildhall ^. That old English wood smokes well and I like most of the Comoy shapes, have 5 or 6 of them. They were a good deal a while ago on the ebay estate market at 15-20 dollars each.

Beautiful pipe Edward! Love Goussard's work! @silvermouse
Dang, two sweet pipe pics there, gents!
Here is my lattice meer. Has a few more hours on it than yours.
That is a great patina!! This was the pipes second...maybe third bowl, lol.
Mine isn't nearly as nice as you gentlemen, and it's got a ways to break in as well.

Mine's still on the truck, should get here soon.
There is some color starting to show on the snout-side of the bowl, BK. Keep it waxed.

Almost looks like your pipe is riding a sleigh, @Stubble.
A sleigh to flavor town!!!
this is a good explanation of the how-to:

I liked the Pembroke. I think it is a little heavy on the cognac, but not overpowering.
Last night I tried the Shortcut to Mushrooms and really enjoyed that too.
Thanks Brad
Trying to enjoy the delicious Frog Morton’s Cellar from @rsherman24, but one of the dogs got sprayed by a skunk.
Thanks, Sherm!
I really enjoyed the 🐸 cellar. What were your thoughts?

The 🐸 cellar was a treat, really enjoyed it.
Today I'm smoking some of the River of Deceit Ken Byron blend you sent in my Falcon. A nice VA blend, very tasty too.
Figured I'd change things up this morning....H&H Classic Burley Blend in a Comoy's.

It's my first pipe I bought. I really like the bowl shape...Wide and deep and smokes nice and cool. Got it from someone on another form for around $25
Might as well keep the bowl rolling....My mix of Virginia Flake and Plum Pudding in a Meerschaum Cob.
