Thread: Peterson pipes

Anybody here like to smoke a Peterson pipe? I have several of them and really enjoy how they smoke and I enjoy the English styles of their pipes.

I have one Pete, from the Aran line.... I really like it as a go-to pipe. Seems like it'll burn ANYTHING beautifully.

I have one of their smaller system pipes, the 317 as I recall. Great smoker, and I like that it traps the moisture away from the bowl, so you don't get that gurgling.

I also have their 1994 pipe of the year, and that is a thing to behold! Love it.

Peterson's are great pipes, I have one (or maybe 2, I need to check at home), a 317 I think it is....

I have had a number of them over the years. I probably have a half dozen now with the shape 120 being the main model. All of the Petes I have kept are straight stemmed pipes and the 120 is the Dublin shape. If they had a 'P' lip I cut it off with my pocket knife as I hate the damn things. I am not a fan of bents but I have had bent Pete 'system' pipes in the past and sold or traded those. I do like the smoke I get out of my Petersons.

I have one--I can never remember the number, but it's a non-system bent with a P-lip. It's a nice pipe, but needs the draw opened a little for my taste; once I get that done it will probably move up the ranks in my smoking rotation, as I do like the style very much.

You will have noticed, I expect, that there is a whole social group devoted to Petes over at Smokers Forums.
