Has anyone ordered one of these? I stumbled across this line, but when I checked the Peterson website I saw no mention of these pipes.

A year or two ago they released the Sherlock Holmes line in meer. This is the first I have seen of the dark colored ones but the prices are better than the all white versions. While I do not own one, I have been able to examine a bunch of the white ones and they were all well made.

mrenglish, Thanks for the comments on the quality of Peterson meerschaum pipes. I doubt Cup o' Joes is right in referring to these pipes as "Made in Ireland", as my understanding is that Turkey only permits the export of finished pipes.
voorhees, That pipe caught my eye as well. I wonder if it is a true military mount.

I've been tempted by those but have not bit so far. Quite impressive.

Once the strummels hit Ireland and someone there inserts the stem it is now, "Made in Ireland"
