    Peterson Irish Harp 80s Rusticated Bent Bulldog

    I bought my first Peterson last year. It’s a an Irish Harp sandblast straight billiard. Smokes great. I thing the Irish Harp line is the best value Peterson offers.

    My Lent Regret

    Good for you, @Old_Newby I say enjoy your whisky and chocolate. Next year give up sweets - they don’t have a forum to tempt you.

    Krumble Kake syrian blend in a new-to-me ‘61 GBD.

    Who was born in 1961?

    Mystery solved. Thank you @Ahi Ka for the 1961 GBD pipe pictured below. Very generous. It’s a beautiful and well cleaned up. I like the small size quite a bit.

    Polishing Rusticated / Blast Finishes: Have We Reached a Consensus?

    I also use REN Wax. I apply with a QTip to get into all the crevices. Buff with a cloth. Then buff the crevices with another QTip.

    Herb Grinder and Flake/Twist

    Yes. These are really handy. This is the simplest one I could find - 3 inch inner diameter and no extra screens or chambers.

    Dry January?

    A few tips from personal experience: This is a great goal. Very healthy! Don’t allow thoughts that it’s some kind of punishment. It will go better if you replace what would be drinking time with another activity. Plan on Feb 1st (or whenever) to ease back into it. You just did a reset...

    Greetings from Houston TX

    Sadly, the Briar Shop just sold out to a private Cigar Lounge. I expect they are done with pipes. You guys should join us at the next Houston Pipe Club meeting. 1st Friday of the month, so January 5th. Stogies World Class Cigars from 6:00pm to late.

    Breaking a new Peterson Hansom pipe with 5100. I start all my potential VA pipes with red VAs.

    Opening A Tin? Show Us!

    Here’s 2012 McClelland 5100 I am transporting to a small jar. Very dark. Don’t know if you can see it, but it’s glossy/shiny. I needed the big jar for Christmas cheer.
