Hello everyone,

Archie Showalter · Jul 4, 2024

I'm Jesse, and I'm very excited to join this passionate and knowledgeable pipe forum. As a long-time pipe enthusiast, I hope to meet like-minded friends here and share experiences and insights.

About Me

Interests: I have a keen interest in various types of pipes, but I am particularly fond of olive wood pipes. The unique grain and color of olive wood deeply attract me. Every time I light up an olive wood pipe, I can feel its distinctive beauty and comfort.
Experience: I have been smoking pipes for 10 years, during which I have tried different materials and shapes of pipes. Over time, I have developed some personal preferences and gained valuable experience. I enjoy researching the history and craftsmanship of pipes and have tried my hand at some simple repairs and maintenance.
Collection: I currently have a collection of 35 pipes, including some classic models and rare handmade pieces. I am especially fond of old pipes with stories behind them, as each one feels like a piece of history.

Fantastic intro Archie well done and great to have you with us. I too love the old pipes and the history also and really enjoy buying old estate pipes and giving them a new life. https://rebornpipes.com/ is my go to. I cant say I know about or have any olive wood pipes but am a fan of cobs and hardwood pipes. Show us if you can any of your olive wood ones.

Got an olive wood pipe here which I need to give some more attention to. Haven't smoked it at all lately and it is indeed a lovely pipe to smoke and handle.

Oh, and welcome to the group.
