Flake cutter

Not sure how old this flake cutter is but i think at least 100 years old.

I was slicing some flakes to smoke and got carried away. 

It really does cut perfect flakes. 

The tobacco is Samuel Gawith RB plug



The last was a bit too thick for a flake so cubed it.

Yale pipe smoking

This photo shows an old Yale commencement tradition. The Presentation Day custom was to bring pipes outside and smoke, and then set them upright and do a “stag dance” where they ran around and broke their pipes to seal their friendships..
