My Next Pipe

[Swampy16]

EDIT: Fixed Capitalization in Title (See Rule 9)

I love some input on buying my next pipe. I like my Peterson and that style pipe. I’m not sure if I want a System pipe or regular army mount or Spigot. I’m not 100% sure of the difference but this is what I’m leaning towards.

SP has some just like that one for 88us dollars.

Nice, i was originally going to get that same pipe with the trumpet bowl but don’t wanna spend $140 right now.

I've had good luck with non-system Petes and I recommend the fishtail bits unless you have established that you prefer P-lips.

I bought a P-Lip estate jobby, I never smoke it... I should prolly sell it. I like a fishtail better

 

[Swampy16]

I thinks it’s gonna take some getting used to for me. I just got mine and haven’t seen a real advantage to it, yet.

I started with Peterson’s, and still enjoy many of them today. The ones that didn’t do it for me have been sold off. System, Army Mount, Spigot... all solid choices. The pipe in your first picture is quite a looker. I’m fond of dense cross grain and sterling silver, so that one gets my vote!

That’s the one I just bought. I have to get used to the p-lip. I’m looking for something similar with a fishtail. I just found a really nice Savinelli I may jump on it here in the next couple hours. I want a system pipe but can’t find one that grabs me by the beard.

Spigot and army mounts are basically the same. You can take them apart any time during smoke easily. Then again, I take my pipes apart during smoke to clean all the time. System pipes are like army mount, but it's designed to trap moisture and prevent it from going into the chamber. Also the stem has bigger bore towards the chamber to prevent moisture gurgling. These features give drier smoke. All my pipes that I have in rotation are Peterson, other than 3 cobs. They all smoke great.

This may be it.

Never smoked a Savinelli, but that’s a nice looking one. I’ve been eyeing a somewhat similar looking Peterson. Al Pascià has a nice Peterson Kapries XL90 that bears some general similarities (fishtail, saddle stem, bent, blasted finish). This one might scratch your Peterson itch.

Oh my ! Thst May scratch a couple of itches and possibly even break the skin. She’s a bit too spendy at the moment unfortunately at $200+.

what is funny at some point that feels like a steal when you start realizing you'll have the pipe for decades.

I agree completely. My wife gives me heat for smoking to begin with and if I’m ordering $200 pipes on line she’s liable to cut me in my sleep. That’s an easier task at a retail shop where cash is king. I did find a similar one on eBay for less than half . I’ll find it again and post it.

 

[Swampy16]

Here it is. Maybe it’s less because it has a nickel band? Maybe? I see now the stem on the one you posted is Lucite and looks much nicer.
