I have to say that I'm quite a fan of pipe smoking as this is the only type of smoking that I will occasionally engage in as there's nothing like it. The blends of pipe tobacco cannot be duplicated even with the most technologically advanced vaporizers and there are some pretty good ones out there. But what you’ll love and appreciate about Peterson Pipe’s is their craftsmanship. Each Briar Pipe is carefully made to exceed quality expectations. Even more than that, if you know anything about pipe making there are no two pipes that are alike. On top of that, the process of making a pipe, especially a briarwood-based Peterson Pipe, can be a lengthy one.
Now the Peterson Pipe that I personally own is a “Systems Pipe”. What this means is that according to the Peterson site:
“Charles Peterson's patented system design, including a deep reservoir to collect excess moisture from the smoke; a graduated-bore mouthpiece that funnels the smoke and allows moisture to collect within the reservoir; a sturdy, sterling silver military mount, which allows the pipe to be broken down and cleaned without damage or warping; and our patented p-lip bit, which draws the smoke upward, thus reducing tongue bite.”
Also mention on the Peterson site”
“The deluxe differs from those aforementioned lines, comprised of bowls with only the finest grain patterns and featuring a sterling silver mount and a push-gap stem, which was never designed to be flush-fitting, the space between the mount and stem base gradually decreasing with prolonged use.”
Let me say that it is a great pipe and I absolutely love it, the only thing that I don't like about it is the fact that the:
“Sterling silver mount and a push-gap stem, which was never designed to be flush-fitting, the space between the mount and stem base gradually decreasing with prolonged use.”
This is not to say that the pipe is “falling apart” because it's simply not. I just happen to like things that stay flush. But it's made like this for good reason and it’s that engineering that has allowed me to keep my pipe exceptionally clean and my smoking experience exceptionally enjoyable. The words; “no one can have everything” come to my mind. So, if you love pipe smoking, please be sure to get you a Peterson Pipe and you can get your right here.
