    Duuuude! What an awesome video, dear brother! I've never seen such a quaint tobacco pipe, and your 'how-to' was very informative. Thank you! You have it hand it to the Japanese for their meticulous craftsmanship. 👍 I hope you're enjoying your weekend, Chris! Love you, brother! God bless you!!! 🙏♥️

      Or in that case, China 😂 actually this pipe was very inexpensive but it works perfectly fine if you have figured out how to!
      Thx for watching and commenting! I allready missed your comments! Best,

    I’ve watched many videos about Kiseru and that Japanese tobacco.
    The Japanese have a specific table they used for these pipes. With places for sand and tobacco.
    It’s a very interesting side of the pipe story for sure!!
    You are very welcome!! I am glad the lighter works well!!!!

    Great video Sir. In the USA a pipe tobacco called Five Brothers is a very fine cut and a strong that works perfect in the Kiseru pipe. 💨💨💨

      Hi Bob! Guess what? I have a pouch of five brothers here! When I open it up I will give it a try in that pipe! But so far not a single pipe tobacvo worked well...best with high quality cigatette shag!

    • @BrutalEnough
      @BrutalEnough  2 месяца назад

      Not a single pipe tobacco will work properly! Only the finest cut cigarette tobacco! You can add one tiny bit of pipe tobacco to spice it up but that's the limit! But there are larger bowl Kiserus and those are a different thing.

    There was an antique shop in Terra Alta West Virginia, that had a church Warden Pipe that was 7 ft long. They claimed it was made by a preacher in 1860, and they were asking $2,800 for it. Of course I couldn't afford to buy it. It looked like it was well smoked and they had a lot of documentation on it

    Chris! That was a great video! I am intrigued by that pipe and the culture that goes along with it. Did you happen to know that the Kiseru was used as a weapon by otherwise unarmed samurai warriors? Crazy huh? I may have to get one of those, just to add to my pipe collection, along with some of those cigarillos! Very cool video, my friend!

    • @BrutalEnough
      @BrutalEnough  Месяц назад

      Thank you David! Yes, I did read that...but it isn't as crazy as you might think. After all the inventors of the tonacco pipe had Tomahawks that were usable as a pipe as well... more interesting is, that women used the Kiseru as a Kansashi!

      Hi Michael! Ich habe zwar nur eine Woche in Japan verbracht, das war aber schon sehr bemerkenswert! War in einigen Bars und Clubs abseits der Tourismuspfade und habe einige Leute kennen gelernt. Wirklich einen andere Welt...man fällt dort fast zwangsläufig ungut auf auch wenn man sich noch so viel Mühe gibt! 😅 Zur Kiseru; mini Zigarillos cutten und Genießen! Schmecken in deinem Klima sicher doppelt gut!

Unsere Tochter macht sich meinen Jugendtraum war und geht im September nach Japan zum Studium und will sich anschließend ihr neues Leben dort aufbauen. Werden sie dann natürlich besuchen.

      Servus Hans Walter! Die Pfeufe ist manchmal nicht schlecht wenn man keine Zeit hat für eine ganze Pfeife hat...allerdings wird man damit immer komisch beäugt und verdächtigt andere Substanzen zu konsumieren...Sind aber auch schöne Deko-Objekte...da man sie auch für wenig Geld bekommt kann man sich durchaus eine für die Sammlung gönnen! 😉
