  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

I'm Not a Pipe Guy, But HOLY CRAP!

I do love great design and art and I just stumbled upon the pipes of Tsuge Ikebana. Just as pieces of art, these are beautiful and I doubt I'd ever actually smoke one (at those prices) but I sure as hell would have it displayed!

Only $3000 for this one:



And $1900 for this one:

Those are Beautiful pieces of artwork! nice! My pop has a bunch of pipes! I bet he has alot of antique ones. I may have to rummage through his collection since he doesn't smoke them. I don't smoke them neither but I'd just like to know what kind he has.

For those ultra high grades the line between smoker and collector is clearer, although there are a few collector-smokers.
I'd love to have the scratch to smoke ultra high grades, but who wouldn't like to be in that position?
