    Sharp Edged Peterson Stem

    Makes sense. It didn't seem like a QC just based on how straight and well proportioned it is. Thanks for the info!

    Sharp Edged Peterson Stem

    For a job like this would you recommend going through the 1,2,3,4 process or just the 3 and 4? I've never worked with vulcanite so I don't know how soft it is.

    Sharp Edged Peterson Stem

    As you can see it's an extremely thin edge, making it sharp.

    Sharp Edged Peterson Stem

    It's mainly on the sides of the bit that is sharper. It digs into the side of my mouth/lip when I clench on the side. I must say it's an incredible smoker and I have no regret getting it.

    Sharp Edged Peterson Stem

    Aloha, I finally got my first Peterson pipe. It's a great smoker, but the stem has somewhat sharp edges making it uncomfortable on the corners of the my lips to clench. Does anyone have a good remedy to this?

    Question on Potentially Sanding Down a Briar Chamber

    I would assume a light cake will fill any imperfections. Maybe just wipe the inside of the chamber with a paper towel to keep the cake even.

    English “problems”

    At least you can enjoy an English blend (nuances or not). Whenever I try any blend with a decent amount of Latakia my mouth gets fried to a char no matter how slow I smoke it. I can only smoke blends that use Latakia as a very light condiment.

    Peterson Royal Yacht in a Savinelli 614. Everything about this blend on paper seems like it wouldn’t be my style, but I thoroughly enjoy it.

    Meerschaum Coloring

    Wow that’s crazy… sounds like coloring is more of a lifelong venture.

    Meerschaum Coloring

    So the rest of the coloring on the shank and near the mortise is just wax darkening?

    Meerschaum Coloring

    Fair enough. Thanks!

    Meerschaum Coloring

    That’s a great looking pipe. That makes sense about the wax coloring. Im new to the meerschaum world, but the one I have is one of my best smokers atm.
