Assorted LJ Peretti blends. Not sure if I have ever had any Perretti blends but that’ll be different soon. Which ones did you get? Well I got No. 8 Slices, 150th anniversary flake, Boston slices, DD burley, and No. 33 |

They’re due in Monday according to the postal service. We shall see. Hopefully the mail issues we’ve had lately do not apply here. Will keep you posted!  |

 5/pack of Padron 1926 no 9 Maduro, wanted to have special smoke for my Saint Pats Birthday. That’s my birthday present to me. Being born on the Good Saint’s Day is most auspicious. Gonna have to start calling you O’Cajun. |

Hopefully the mail issues we’ve had lately do not apply here. Will keep you posted! Yes please share your thoughts. The "sampler pack" is a lot of fun! As far as the mail... I've got a Peterson St Patty's Day and a tin of 1792 Flake on the way... |

Not pipe related, but tracking numbers tell me that 2 damascus blank blades, a set of flat wound bass strings (for my daughter), my hammers, tongs, and the propane burner for the forge I am building all arrived today.

Been watching "Forged in Fire"? Did you notice the part about "Don't Try This at Home!"? 😁🤠😎 |

Lol. This is something I have always wanted to try. My life kinda took a sharp turn this year, and I am finding myself in a position to finally give it a shot. Anvil is a few weeks out, so until then I am still just making handles for premade blades, but soon I'll be able to start making the blades myself also.
I'll get some pictures going in the Hobby area before too long...

Now it's time to have some fun on the weekends! |

Congrats on your school Jason. My Son had a small forge, didn’t bring it to Texas when Exxon shipped him there, he made me a plug cutter knife, Damascus blade, he bought the blank and got some Girriaffe bone to make me a handle. I also watch Forged in Fire Ron, enjoy the show.

Like Knife or Death too! |

And in other mail news, my forlorn shipment from Country Squire has moved! Ladies and gents, we have movement!
This is the one that made it as far as the distribution center here in town, then disappeared for a week, only to turn up in Washington, DC, where it has remained for the past 3 weeks. Tracking now says it has departed said locale. Where it departed to is anybody's guess, but at least it has been seen and handled by a human-type person, meaning it has not winked out of this corporeal plane, which is welcome news.

At least you’ve got movement Urb. I ordered another shipment of tobacco from a different dealer five days ago. During that time it went from Jamaica NY to Queens NY, a whole whopping 15 miles or 3 miles/day. Even the Pony Express was faster! |
