Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Who here smokes a tobacco pipe?

Interested to hear about the pipe that you smoke and your choice of tobacco. Smoking a tobacco pipe seems to be one of those lost arts of manliness.

Or perhaps tell us about your father, grandfather, or uncle.....maybe mom or grandmother depending on where you’re from?

I generally smoke a Peterson pipe with an English Blend pipe tobacco from Dunhill or Drew Estates.

I was going to start but then I quit chewing tobacco a few weeks ago and it would seem silly to start tobacco again.

I had a great uncle that smoked Prince Albert. Only pipe smoker I know of in the family.

I shan't be posting a pic of our house pipe....

Wow, that’s hilarious. I didn’t even look. Was just thinking and figured I would ask.

Yeap, I smoke a pipe.. I have for years.. Picked it up from Mr. Charles Eson.. He was born in 1895.. Great guy.. He gave me my 1st lessons on guns and life.. Wish I could sit on his porch with him again.. I hope he is watching me and saying to himself, I did good with that boy..

The tobacco blend that I smoke was created 20 years ago or so... A buddy that is a priest came up with it.. Great stuff.. If you smoke I can give you the recipe..

I have four Peterson's and a half dozen vintage Kaywoodies......I like em all.

I like Lane 1Q and Carter Hall for daily use.....I'll smoke either one on it's own but every now and then I'll dump a couple of pouches of CH in a pound of 1Q and give it a shake.
My favorite English blend is John Bull. i always keep a pouch or two on hand for when I'm in the mood for something stronger.

I smoke a couple of bowls a day.....sometimes more but not very often.

A buckskin tobacco pouch, clay pipe with reed stem, fire tongs to pick coals from the fire to light the pipe, also with tamper and bowl scraper

Wow, Ron LaClaire! We're in the presence of greatness gents!

Carved this one out of Llano county Stetite.



Enjoying a Savinelli at Armijo Springs several years ago. ( pipe was a gift from A dear campfire member and friend!)

I don't smoke a pipe, but when I saw the title of the thread I immediately thought of Kaywoodie.

Oh! And I do have a few vintage Kaywoodies. Love my old 500 series!

Churchwarden with a simple black cavendish. Not much more than once a day. Like sitting and watching my small orchard grow. Lots of action.

I smoked 7-8 pipes per day between 1960 and 1983 - I stopped because my employer had a no-smoking-in-the-building police which was enforced. Due to the work pressure, I couldn't go outside to smoke (I was working 10-12 hours/day as it was).

I used to smoke a toasted Cavendish tobacco; easy on the tongue and a nice flavor.

I still have 40 pipes in my collection and often wonder how much I would now have if I had invested the $40-$50 I spent for for each pipe during the time period.

Smoke a pair of butz Choquin pipes with a special blend of tobacco... Wife loves the smell and I the taste...

Yeah, I'd probably have ziploc freezer bags full of C notes layin' around in the bureau too, if I'd just stayed single!

Two or three chambers?

I like Dunhill's, Comoy Blue Riband and Kaywoodie Flame Grain and Super Grain, I have 20-25 pipes and smoke Dunhill 965 purchased in bulk.
