    New Snus user here

    So I been smoking around 1 pack a day for almost 19 years now and think my lungs have about had it.
    I'm tired of being short of breath, wheezing at night and coughing a bit here and there.
    I seen my Doctor a couple weeks ago and got a chest X-ray, the doc said my lungs look excellent.
    I want to keep them that way, surprised there still okay.

    I live to hike and take survival to the max, love knives and fishing.
    I noticed that last time I went for a hike I could not breath worth a crap and it was time to change that.

    I did try the whole e-cig thing for about 3 weeks (used a joy e-Go twist that rocked) it worked pretty good but I would always
    get this weird head feeling from it then 3 weeks into it I started having really bad panic attacks....WTF

    I said the hell with it and found Snus, now I never really been into the dip much, I have used it a few times but never really cared for
    it, I heard about Snus but thought it was just another dip on the market until yesterday I started to research it a bit and seen a
    local gas station that carried Camel Snus, I picked up a can of the frost and loved it, then back to the web I went and noticed there was better stuff out
    there (Swedish brand) so I did gas station seach and found some General mint and mini mint and I gotta say its some damn good stuff

    I still smoke but already have cut down, my plan is to quit smoking less and less daily while using snus.
    I want to breath better and feel better and hope this works.

    As for occupation I make and sell strops, my company is called FLEXXX Strops (I love knives, backpacks, survival gear, guns)
    Knives I like ESEE, Spyderco, Becker, BHK.....ect

    So its nice to meet all of you and sorry for the long first post.

    Here to learn the snus way.

      Welcome. Circle K stations carry a few of the General products, but not round cans so far. Once you get a hold of the higher nicotine Swedish products it becomes easy to phase out the cigs. Good luck.

        Welcome! You can learn a lot here. Snus can set you free from all but snus, I am all most four years cig free. My lungs are so freeking happy for snus. But there is almosf a classic snus learning curve involved, changing tastes, los, Chad, and other bewildering things.
        You have come to the right place.
        I am a collector of knives too, many fine examples, spyderco, emerson, benchmades, automatics, and high end kukri knives. I own a strop, but have never mastered it yet. I was just about to order some compound for mine. I have been stropping cardboard for fine edges recently. I guess I sharpen knives as a hobby.
