what is your latest pipe purchase

[Old Smokey]

It doesn't matter. Even the most expensive pipe tobaccos are a mere pittance per smoke when compared to smoking even middle of the road cigars. You could smoke nothing but Penzance and Stonehaven at eBay scalper prices; i.e. $60.00 per 8oz bag and still be under a buck a smoke.

That fact is appealing. I also am attracted that having a smoke doesn't require over an hour. I don't know if piping is something that will grab me, but I'm willing to give it a good shot. But I'm still gonna smoke my usual 3 cigars a month and hopefully smoke fewer cigarettes.
