Almost exclusively I purchased straights and half curves. But the PAD has gone further to stage two, namely a full bend.

This is a Petersen Kensale, a beautiful full bend. I know this is going to be only the beginning before State 3. (I'll let you guess what Stage 3 is when if takes hold.) Help!

I always think "if I have less than fishnbanjo I'm doing okay"
(Coming from a merely jealous place btw)

I don't often like full bends, but there are 1 or 2 that I own that are great.

I have all renditions of straight and bent. I don't have any with the trumpet flared bowl, but I like it. I have steered clear of Meerschaums and Falcons and other metal pipes, simply to steer around endless PAD. I have "too many" pipes, and I enjoy them, smoke them all.

You are not yet at Level Alpha, carry on cadet.
That's an 05 shape. The first in the Sherlock Holmes series.
After you finish with Kinsale, you may begin your tour of The SH pipes.

I’ll pm my address. You can send all your purchases there and eventually the PAD will wear off. I’m always willing to help a friend in need. ::
Sweet Pete btw.

That's one of those Peterson shapes I've always intended to buy, but never have actually gotten around to it. Lovely pipe

Sparrowhalk, if you're getting into deeply bent Kinsales, there are 3 shapes that appeal to me: the XL17, XL12, and XL23. I only own the first, however. Like them with the rusticated finish.
