    I can't stress enough to the new guys here how awesome a cob can be and how you should have at least one in your arsenal. They are the best kept secret.Cheap and super easy smokers right from the word go. I really don't smoke mine enough . And for all the wisenheimers who make fun of you when you do smoke a cob...nuts to them. Fine I'm "Popeye" or "Frosty" take your pic ha ! Still a damn good smoke.

    I think one of the reasons that I'm so into cobs is; All of the snobs that are against cobs... At one point I thought that a $500.00 Dunhill was the way to go, not that I ever owned one...

    And then...

    Dr. Grabow came along... Even for a nice simple pipe it was finicky...

    And then...

    Missouri Meerschaum came along... Doing some reading and learning that a cob is the best way to sample tobacco, (disposability), I learned that they were NOT finicky and were one of the easiest pipes to smoke...

    Stuff, light and smoke...

    Don't get me wrong, I still like my Briars, but I'll pick up a cob 90% of the time...

    On the porch with some Dunhill VA flake in the basket "Baby". Got done a little while ago with a marathon reloading session, so before I eat and start outside chores figured I'd have a puff or 3.

    At the back terrace with pipe & coffee. Dockworker flakes from Karl Erik.



    Also noticed our wintertime guests have returned:

    I have failed to mention something... Spend the little extra and get a MM Cob pipe... Not a knock off from China... They are NO good...

    And no I don't work for them... I wish I did

    Speaking of MM Cobs, the cooler weather is increasing my motivation for a good smoke. So I pulled out two perennial performers, Cobosaurus Rex and Old Joe Krantz

    Yep, gonna try my hand on some 300blkout subs.

    On a cob note, I've never tried one. Out of curiosity, how long does a cob last?

    Tonight smoke, more Oak Alley, in a petite Milano. I am liking this stuff!
