@Hillcrest Sorry, Hillcrest. I have no idea.
Well, its clearly one of the bent dutches ... I don't believe they make all of them anymore. Reading the second article below, mine may be an XL339 second ... it looks like one. I'll have to take a pciture and throw it out there for ID.

Relaxing after a wonderful salad, chicken legs and snow peas dinner with a slice of sour lemon cake for dessert. I just finished smoking SPC Christmas Spirit 2022 in a medium bend 2001 Ural lattice Rhodesian with a yellow with white swirls acrylic saddle stem. Been working on a review of this blend.

I’m a huge fan of that stuff as well (the flake version as I’ve never tried the mixture). We are blessed here in the states to have access to tobaccos from a blender as stellar as C&D.
I’m from the Atlanta, Georgia area. I always knew we were blessed to have C&D but living abroad now for over a year has really highlighted the fact.

Later, while on the phone, some Lane 1-Q in an irish Second medium bent dutch (8S or 313?) with wide saddle stem ... tasty but this is the first Peterson I have had that produces so much condensation in the chamber and stem ... I now understand what others were saying about removing the stem and flicking the water out onto the ground. All my other Petes smoke much drier.
Forgive me for correcting my own post:
I just happily discovered, thanks to PetersonPipeNotes, that my newly acquired pipe is an Irish Second of the "rarely seen in this configuration" (with saddle stem) - XL339S Dutch Billiard ! Mine is smooth with a couple of fills but is very similar to:

Special thanks to PetersonPipeNotes for the info !!

A quarter of the way through this bowl of year 2016 Sutliff Revelation Match in a straight smooth brown post-WWII Kingsway (Comoy’s) London Made 61 Canadian with a tapered black vulcanite stem. Community Coffee, neat, is my drink. Cleaning a few pipes before I go to work.

Half 3yr old Elizabethan mixture and amphora original, very tasty. In a Luciano hand finished in Italy 2013 squat bulldog. Imbibing tonight..Sierra Nevada celebration ale, with a dram of 15 yr old Dalwhinnie, a Christmas gift opened early. Going to listening to all the great Jazz vibe players tonight, starting off with Bobby Hutcherson and Joe locke with Cal Tjader thrown in.

Enjoyed a tasty golden delicious apple, and am smoking Wilke Hearth of Galway in an undated smooth straight medium brown made in France Saillard Lord Clerit lumberman with a black vulcanite saddle stem. Working and listening to Bob Dylan's Theme Time Radio Hour.
