    Matches vs lighter

    The title speaks for itself!
    Do you folks prefer using a lighter or matches to get the pipe burning?!

    I usually go for the wooden matches

    I use a bic, but I haven't tried matches yet....
    Like my father before me, I will work the land,
    And like my brother before me, I took a rebel stand.

    That's the way I've gone with the few bowls I've smoked thus far! But I've seen some nice pipe lighters.

    Eventually I plan to get myself a pipe insert for my zippo and use that. I've used bics on occasion but find I prefer the matches

    I used to use matches but found its just a hassle/mess so i go strictly bic/lighter now

    Brimy, dont get all baller on us. believe me its

    75% Tobacco
    24% Pipe
    1% lighting method.

    Dont waste money on a fancy pipe lighter. $2 bic to $20 tops.

    Spend your $$$ on the better tobacco.

    What blends you smoke so far of what i sent you?

    Got you! Thx.

    Haven't made the opportunity to burn the pipe yet. I plan on taking some with me to work tomorrow. Will post up & let you know.

    Miss Kayla @cheaphumidors sent me a really cool Calibri pipe lighter as well as a triple torch combo , I'm too lazy for matches.So I go straight to the lighters.

    I prefer a match, I seem to be able to get a more complete light. I don't know, maybe I'm able to control the flame better so the tobacco gets lit all of the way around the bowl. That being said, I most often, like 90% of the time, use a bic or similar for the convenience. Most of my pipes are lit while in my car. I use matches at home.

    I prefer wooden kitchen matches by far but regardless I almost always use my Zippo (Run of the mill without pipe insert) because that's what I have on me.
    Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.
