Stands & Pouches - Leather Stand Up Tobacco Pouch Suede
Excellent Pouch
Exactly what I needed. A simple leather pouch that holds a fair amount amount of tobacco (haven't measured exactly but at-least a few ounces if packed firm). With a couple small pouch humidifiers the leather keeps the tobacco fresh, folds up nicely and fits in my back pocket like a fat overly packed wallet. Easy to pack a pipe when open as it will sit flat. It has a magnetic button-clasp that functions perfectly to close easily adn quickly. Fits the cheap pipe multi-tool and you can even slide your pipe through the top fold to carry along as well. Great price

Missouri Meerschaum - Maple Hardwood Apple Diplomat Bent (6mm)
Pipe Cracked/Split on the first day
I had some high expectations for this hoping it would be more durable than the cheaper meerchaums and corncobs - the first day I used it was a rather terrible experience. The first bowl I packed was overwhelmed by the taste of the maple wood itself, which I expect a little with a fresh pipe but the taste was quite strong and overwhelming. By the third bowl I packed the wood taste had finally lessened but then the bowl cracked from top to bottom splitting along the shank. The pipe smokes very nicely; it has a strong open draw and good size bowl - which is a shame that it split and cracked from the heat. Perhaps I just got unlucky with this one and it just had a weakness in the wood grain. I might try another to see if this occurs again.
