2025 Peterson St. Patrick's Day Pipe Release
- Thread starter ssjones
- Start date
Looks like they went plip mad. The 3085 looks interesting, but I don't see any 2025 releases in the UK and will give these a pass, I think. Not a huge Peterson fan, tbh, although I have 3... maybe because I have 3?
I'm afraid to say this, but I'm pretty sure there was at least one on SP EU very, very early this morning - I wanted a 221 smooth and none there when I checked in but got one at 5 pm on SP. None there now though, so I feel kind of guilty for mentioning it. Edit: that was from yesterday and I didn’t post but apparently was still “there” - I see your explanation now!Missed seeing a 53 smooth
Yep, “don’t sleep on SP EU” is always good advice, lol. The smooth 221 I wanted was already unavailable when I checked in the wee hours but had it snagged by 5:02 pm on SP. In addition to the exchange I don’t worry about how long it will take for them to show up so it’s always kike a surprise. Then again, I currently have two SP EU boxes at work that have just been sitting on a shelf since right before and just after Xmas - need to get them home and opened up.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.

Ordered a 150 sandblast. Picture when it arrives.
I picked up one of the new 3085's for the wife and a rusticated 304 for myself. I'll post pics later this week when they come in.
Received my 124 smooth today. Couldn’t be happier. Drilling, fit and finish are perfect. A perfect shape for Virginias…
Love it. Mine may be showing up today as well. Fingers crossed.
Three days and it’s here! Maiden smoke with GLP Penny Farthing
very happy, thank you! @swilford
you guys are doing a great job and continually go above and beyond

Was hoping to find a blasted 53 I liked, and did.
Your streak of phenomenal blasts continues as does my streak of coming up empty handed on nice blasts.Was hoping to find a blasted 53 I liked, and did.
The delivery leprechaun dropped this 106 off today along with a pound of Lane BCA. I am quite pleased with this year's offering. And Peterson really stepped up thier game with the pipe sock too. Now the question is, smoke it now or wait until St. Patrick's Day? 
Received my St. Paddy's Day pipes in the post today. A 304 for myself and a 3085 for my wife. Beautiful pipes, and the 304 smokes well. I love the new Celtic shamrock stamp and the tweed bags were a nice touch.
I got the shape 53 in today. Looks pretty good. Haven't smoked it yet but will soon, maybe after dinner.
I was perusing the SPD Petes; looks like approximately half of them are gone since they first went on sale at SP.
A 69 shape was my first Pete, and over the years I’ve added several more in various flavors.
I decided to purchase a 69 sandblast Pete. Let’s hope the drilling is good…

Nice one! They usually get multiple shipments in leading up to Saint Patrick's Day. I'm contemplating a second one this year. I'm tempted to grab a blast.
My 69 arrived today. The blast pattern is beautiful on all sides. The drilling is excellent, although the airway is just a little above center in the mortise. It may pass a cleaner with a little finagling.
That’s a good sign - in the recent past airways on the bent Petes have come out above the bottom of the chamber, exiting on the sidewall as opposed to the bottom of the chamber.

My Peterson St. Patrick’s Day, shape no. 406, arrived today. Petersons have done well in packaging this line. The lined pouch is a nice touch — a matching smoking jacket might be cool. Nice pipe!
