What do you call the style of hat that you are wearing in your avatar? I like those short brimmed hats.

It's a Prussian WWI helmet [Pickelhaube] with cover ruined in a trench.The U.S Marines had a helmet in a similar form at 1881-1902.

Gee Sid, how many different pipe tobaccos have you smoked in your life?

Today, I am currently smoking the first priming of my MD609, which has been in the kiln for two weeks.

Re: What Pipe Tobacco Did You Smoke Today?

looking up that name, it appears they all have the spike on the top. I like the one on Sid's Avatar since it appears to be missing the spike. Or it could just be cropped off in the image.

The spike has been removed due to the snipers,in the trenches was an indication that a soldier is moving or he is trying to raise his head.The Germans modified their helmets even at the WWII,the side signs have been removed.

What is the stem color? It looks silver in the picture. I like the contrast with the dark stummel. The gold bands are a nice touch also.
