    Yea, I've tried it a few times, figured I would splurge and treat myself with a few oz. of some pipe tobacco sense I bought the pipe today. There seems to be some writting on the side but I cannot make it out unfortunately.

    Very nice R102 shave Joe. I have read assessments of the Fine products scents that are similar to your experience today. I do not have any of their products in the den. In the past I had been tempted to purchase the Santal Absolut as well as L’Orange Noir.

    In my early twenties, I tried pipe smoking with tobacco. I used the get Borkum Riff Cherry tobacco because I liked the smell. Unfortunately, it gave me a severe tongue bite that I gave it up after a few months. Cleaning the pipe was yucky to say the least. Looking back, I am glad because I could have gotten tongue cancer, etc. You are 18 so you are old enough to make your own decisions. However, I would suggest going to your local tobacconist to prepare a mild blend of tobacco that doesn't give you tongue bite. If he doesn't make tobacco blends, then ask for his recommendation from one of the brands that is mild and again, will not give you tongue bite. A word of caution, do not get Borkum Riff, it is a harsh tobacco.

    Oh ok thanks for the info Joe, I'll be looking for something mild that I'll just stick to, no point in trying different ones considering I'm only planning on using my pipe every now and then as opposed to a regular user, just due to the health problems of long term use. Sorry about the Tongue bite, that doesn't sound fun.

    Awesome shave Bill and congratulations on and amazing straight. I know you get a lot of flack on your honing technique but I would just like to say so long as you are happy and getting the results you like then keep on doing what you are doing. I may send a few your way to hone for me in the future. They ain't nothing fancy but I would like to try them out one day. Take care.
