Now with five Peterson X105s

[didache]

Hi all
Some time ago I posted a picture of my third X105 shape (small billiard) from Peterson. At the time I wondered if it was the start of a possible seven day set.
Here is the picture I took then:

Well, I am now up to five of them - so it looks as though the seven day set really is becoming likely. I just love this shape. It's perfect for anything up to a medium length smoke and it especially suits English mixtures and Flakes.
My new one is a Rosslare - a nicely stained briar with a good grain and an acrylic bit in 'citrus'.
Here it is - in the background are the Jekyll & Hyde, the Atlantic, the Dracula and the Fisherman.

I shall Christen it tonight with some SG Navy Flake.

They make a great set. I do have two Peterson brandy B11's, a Killarney ebony and a Shannon. Billiard is a great shape for multiples.

I'm a big fan of Pete's, all very nice!

That Jekyll and Hyde is interesting and I love the flame grain (?) on that Rosslare too.

Whoa, I never realized they did that with the jekyll and hyde, I love that.. What a great looking rotation.

I have a dracula 03 and it is one of my favorite pipes, I would like to add the atlantic and fisherman.

The X105 is a great shape. That Fisherman is simply awesome. Never stopped to look at a J and H before. I like it.

Very nice!! I own a Fisherman and it is a great smoker. Keep going to 7.

Bet your a proud man.

Well done.

Thanks guys. Interesting that several folk have commented on the J & H pipe. I was unsure of it when I bought it, but it has rapidly become one I reach for often: the unusual feel of it in the hand (one side smooth and the other sandblasted) makes it aesthetically interesting to hold. It's also been something of a conversation starter due to it's curious appearance.
