Anyone Else Not A Fan Of The P-Lip

[Jwebb90]

The only p-lip I own happens to be a Kaywoodie of all pipes. I only smoke English blends in it so it pretty much never gets used.

The only Pete I bought had a Plip. I despised it and gave it away. In my humble opinion the guy who invented it should have shoved it up his ass never to be seen again.

That's the Harris we know and love. No longer Mr. Mellow!!

elp, I have to be careful as I was put in timeout for being to rambunctious. I did deserve it and am glad to still be a member.

Not a fan of the P lip.

My lone fishtail. The shape makes me keep it, despite how weird that button looks.

I really enjoy smoking this Peterson. I find that it does the job. ️

I have a calabash gourd that has a p-lip style stem, no idea if was oem or not, the press fit meer bowl...might actually be ceramic. So I just don't know.

I am not favoring vulcanite, i taste the rubber. So it's safe to say I will invest in acrylic stemmed pipes. Although my hand carved kit pipes contain some of the cheapest of the cheap vulcanite It's a fun concept.

Just because it doesn't work for you, doesn't mean it doesn't work for others. I'm trying to get my client to buy bulk, but he just orders 6 pouches of Prince Albert or half and half at a time. I think the secret to longevity is truly to smoke OTC blends day in and day out, have a pacemaker installed and keep puffin

I’ll send you a fishtail pipe for that one if you want. ?

I'll gladly take you up on that if the offer is serious!

I think some feel the P-lip is getting the full Peterson experience. Whether you like P-lip or not, PC has a Peterson sale going of Systems pipes, although the selection on shapes is going fast. They are, or were, available in both fishtail and P-lip and they are discount priced at about $80 USD. I'm well stocked in Petersons, mostly mid-range, no Systems pipes, and all of no-problem good quality.

I like peterson pipes. Muscular and sharp and most under 200.00. Many under 150.00 Sometimes the one I love only has a P Lip. Like in the premiere serries

+1 to cutting it off.

I have one of those and am not a fan. They get pretty hot, too. They are thin.

Turning this over in mind, I wonder what percentage of pipe smokers or Forums members are partial to P-lip bits, maybe owning five or more. I'd guess 15%, but it is conjecture. I own the one, but don't consider myself a proponent.

 

[crazyhog]

Absolutely hate them!

1/3 of my pipes are p lip (I only own 3 though...) and I don’t find it much of a hinderance or advantage, it just is what it is. Maybe as I get more my opinion may change.

 

[bullet08]

Most of mine are P-lips. I find them rather comfortable. I don't mind fishtail, but I can smoke P-lips longer since the smoke doesn't tire out my tongue. Been clenching a lot lately, don't have any specific issue with either of them.

I switch between fishtail (often other brands) and plip. I find it doesn’t irritate my mouth as it’s moving the smoke between the two.

After a number of years, I have decided that I only want to buy pipes that have a straight path for the pipe cleaner to follow. A P-lip does not fit in the requirement. While I own one, it very rarely gets picked up. I plan on selling pipes that don't meet my requirements.
