Custom Falcon And Ronson Bowls

Ronson pipes are have a slightly smaller thread so Falcon bowls won't fit. 








The bowls build cake fast and will start to colour after only 3 or 4 bowls.
As with all the bowls i turn no filler or stain is used.
Polished with pure natural carnauba wax only.
I smoke my bowls almost exclusively and find they
smoke cooler than standard Falcon bowls.
My o-ring system for attaching bowls works so well.
Just screw on like a normal Falcon bowl.
Fit is tight and they seal perfectly.
The o-ring lasts a very long time.
I have not broken an o-ring in 6 months or longer and i am a heavy smoker.    
 O-rings are cheap and easy to get.
I include a lifetime supply of 5 o-rings with each bowl i make.

Samuel Gawith's Navy Flake



It comes in a ziplock bag.



Samuel Gawith's Navy Flake
Storm-tossed seas, a howling wind, a ship with full sail beating into the wind and Jolly Jack Tar at the helm with his trusty pipe. Images which are conjured up whilst smoking Samuel Gawiths Navy Flake. A traditional offering of Virginias, pressed with just the right amount of Latakia and flavoured with Rum. Medium strength.
Mid nicotine cool smoking and full of flavour.
The smell of this tobacco is pungent in a good way.
A great smoke.
 Samuel Gawith make the best tobaccos.
I like their handmade ye olde world style.

Pipe Spotting


A great way to light your pipe or
maybe burn your face off.
