[ssjones]

Some of inquired about the release of the 2025 St. Patrick's Day pipe, see info and a ton of pictures on Mark's blog entry. Looks like 2025 is a return to tradition, I love the vulcanite stem, silver stamp and inlaid silver P stem logo.

I saw a few in there that look interesting. Agreed about the traditional take, that is more attractive to me.

Very extensive offering --- well done!

Beautiful selection but not enough fishtail choices to pull the trigger this year. Which is a good thing, given the damage I've done to my tobacco budget!

 

[beetlejockey]

Was saving up for one, then I lost my glasses and the pipe money had to be used to replace them Maybe next year!

 

[AroEnglish]

Sharp. Will definitely be tempted.

 

[The Libertine]

The 106 looks amazing.

 

[HawkeyeLinus]

As usual, order confirmed and I haven't received the email yet telling me they are available!

 

[TGraves]

Couldn’t resist! 221 in Heritage finish coming my way.

 

[Bbailey324]

So I've now bought 2 pipes and about 1.5 lbs of tobacco in the last three days. Is this a problem?

Missed seeing a 53 smooth

Got a decent blast 106 from the EU site this morning. Looks like the ring goes all the way around. 97 bucks is a bargain I reckon. I don’t have a Plip in a straight pipe yet so this will be interesting.

I really like the looks of the smooth 124. If I hadn't already just bought a pipe I would definitely jump on it.

I picked up the 999 Sandblasted. The Euro to USD is really good right now, so 93.29 converted to $97.38 +shipping = about 110 bucks for my second 999. I am happy with it and I'll save it for Saint Paddy's Day to break it in. was tempted by the 608, but decided for another 999.

FOMO bought this after missing the one I wanted but it isn’t doing it for me so it’s going back.

What was it you missed out on, the above mention 53 Smooth? Is it this year's Unicorn?

I guess my posts were confusing. I wasn’t planning on buying a SPD pipe but decided to check SPE when I got up. The single pipe featured on the new release Petersons was/is a 53 with seemingly spectacular birdseye (the picture is small so it’s hard to tell). So I searched for a 53 and this was the last smooth and bought it. I was hoping a nicer one would show up on SP but then I didn’t camp out for the drop tonight. But yeah, while the 53 in my post above is nice it’s not spectacular enough to make the cut in my ever shrinking collection.

I wasn’t going to buy anything, but I did get a smooth 124…

 

[skydog]

Well that was money I wasn't planning on spending. I usually skip the St. Patrick's Day pipes because of the green accents but these are great classic looking pipes.

I had made it a tradition to grab one every year. My first Pete was a XL90 St. Patrick's Day. The last couple years really didn't appeal to me unfortunately. But this year's offerings look fantastic. I snagged a smooth 106. Might grab a blast later too! Smokingpipes photo...
