I travel with a Saddleback Leather cable bag as my pipe bag. I can pack a crap-ton of stuff into that bag.

When I'm on the powwow circuit I carry all the essentials in a bigger basket.

Room enough for 2-10 pipes and 5lb of tobacco.

Usually , I have a pipe in a pipe sock along with a cleaner , my favorite being a camo one that I've temporarily lost , but I've probably got a dozen in my closet . I've got other leather pipe carriers in the closet but haven't been in there in some time .
Anyway, this first one I've had since the shop days . its been on every trip I've taken that was over a few days ...

This next is a sorring owl that my wife bought me for my birthday a few years ago . it goes on overnight trips or a day trip that doesn't have to do with going in the woods or river ..

ImageVery nice!

This third one is one of my beaters and I love it . a cheap non leather that holds a pipe / cleaners and tobacco . it goes anywhere ...

Image

I prefer a roll up pouch for tobacco and will have one in my back pocket . that and a pipe sock is the " work norm "

If I get in my closet today , I'll yank the others out

Alright, alright....I'm gonna say it:

Those are basket pipes.

I've got nothin' cool at all. Just this zip up, soft, lined, lunch box Dear Sweetie picked up at Wallyworld. But I'll tell ya, I can cram one pile o' stuff in there! Most days it's carrying a cacophony of four or five various tobaccos, half dozen pipes, a coupla zippos, matches, cleaners, sweetener, a coupla pipe tools, a reaming kit, extra flints and wicks for the zippos, Grabow filters, balsa filters, 9mm filters...and a partridge in a pear tree.

I found a guy who makes amazing leather pipe pouches and other things. I really want one. I make my own sheaths for all the knives I make though. So I've convinced myself I could make my own at some point.

Here's a couple pictures of a knife I finished recently since I haven't mentioned that before.

Thank you! I've been at it for a few years now, it's taken a bit of a back seat since i got into school to become a Paramedic. Though once I'm in the field doing that I plan to take another swing at it on my days off. Right now I'm lucky if I get one day a week in the shop.
