This *might* be a new crack in what appears to be a Peterson 2nd. It has "Made in the Republic of Ireland" stamp with a "P" on the stem.
This *might* be new, or not. *Might* because I don't see up close very well with contact lenses and recently I've utilized glasses more, and now I've found this crack. Even with the visual difficulty, I probably would have felt it with my fingers but I can't be certain. I can feel it now with my fingernail.
If this is a "new" crack, what would you do?
Smoke it until it "blows"?
Refrain from smoking it because it could "blow"?
I've plenty of other pipes, but this one does perform nicely.
I've used a flashlight to look in the chamber and notice nothing out of the ordinary.
