I'm a fan of the bent Bulldog - just feels so right in the hand. Smoke Canadians as well, nothing like a stretched Billiard.
If it smokes as well as mine, it's a great pipe. Great balance and feel, the size is perfect for the pocket and ... the cap works like a charm.
Is there a latch on the cap? I've never seen one in person. Is the cap just to protect your smouldering when its windy?
Yeah, the cap latches down, it's to provide wind resistance.
Nice looking pipe.
I have 3. 2 are 106 billiards and 1 is a bent 69 shape. I love all of them, and they all smoke great. I really am trying to find one in a 408, which is Peterson's take on the author shape.
That is a very sharp looking pipe. That would be handy lately with the winds we have been having.
I have that pipe without the windcap, with a fishtail bit, in the Around-the-World series honoring Ireland with an Irish cross on the band, and even without the windcap, it's a winner. You'll like your new pipe, and you're ready for those springtime gales.
Hard to describe, no "latch", more of a cam action. It does securely close. And, yes, they are now special order from Peterson. When I purchased mine they were on display in the Dublin store.
Very cool looking pipe. Congrats on a fine addition to your collection, I hope it smokes great for you.
Great set-up. Bent bulls with tapered stems appeal to me SO MUCH more than with saddle. Congrats.
