Saw that one as well. It's a gorgeous pipe.This went for $676 last night.
I tapped out mid 4's, and that would have been by FAR the most I'd have ever spent on any pipe.
She's a beauty.
Maybe it's owner lurks or participates here.

Me too. I was 2/3's of the way there last night......Some day I'll get my hands on of these. That one's a real beauty!
Yeah that’s a top notch barber shop you have there.Well, in the last few month I managed to acquire 4 Pre Republic Petersons. Top to bottom, a 312 System Premier that dates between 1815-1922, a System 3, shape 9 that dates between 1923-1937, a 314 System Standard that dates between 1938-1942 and a System Standard, shape 307 that dates between 1942-1946. I'm looking for a Patent Era 1875-1915 pipe and a 1947-1949 one and I will then possibly, maybe, not sure be content and sleep better.

Thank you.Yeah that’s a top notch barber shop you have there.
Try a system.I could have sworn I posted them, but guess I haven't.
I have 4 Petersons. The straight billiard is a pre-Republic and is a fantastic pipe.
The other 3 are just meh....
I do want to try a system.Try a system.
It does help but it doesn't eliminate the bite. It really is speed of smoking which I still need to be conscious about to stay at a slower, non-bitey cadence.I do want to try a system.
I've been having trouble lately with my favorite Virginia blends biting me. I've been smoking burley blends mostly for the last couple years because of it. I think the System might help with that as well, keeping it dryer.
Ive got to say I have yet to have tongue bite on a System, and I tend to smoke em fast and a bit hot.It does help but it doesn't eliminate the bite. It really is speed of smoking which I still need to be conscious about to stay at a slower, non-bitey cadence.

But you’re also a legend. The rest of us have to be more realisticIve got to say I have yet to have tongue bite on a System, and I tend to smoke em fast and a bit hot.
Or my tongue has grown callouses from all of the previous bite I used to get so now I don't notice it. LolBut you’re also a legend. The rest of us have to be more realistic
