Peterson Irish Made Army Peterson Army pipes are among the most iconic pipes that Peterson sell and they date back to the beginning of the company's history. The Army mount evolved on the front lines as soldiers repaired their pipe with a spent cartridge. This also meant that the pipe could be broken down into parts and thrown in a pocket, If the stem was snapped or lost then a new stem could easily be replaced.

Peterson Irish Made Army 999: The Peterson 999 is a half bent briar pipe, with instantly recognisable styling. The Bulldog shape has two grooves around the peak of the taper. It is almost apple shaped, which makes for a comfortable hold and tapers more towards the base. The two grooves as-well as being attractive increase the surface area at the thickest part of the bowl, helping the bowl cool in the same way as a car radiator. This in turn helps keep the smoke cool throughout the pipe. The bowl has been given a matte brown stain by Petersons expert craftsmen to enhance the natural grain of this quality Briar before finishing. As usual the pipe has been finished with a stunning Nickel army mount and Black Acrylic stem. This is a tapered fitting meaning the fit will never wear loose and I guess we can say it again, it just looks fantastic!

Fishtail mouthpiece: Petersons trademark patented mouthpiece is the p.lip design, which has many advantages but unfortunately some smokers just don’t get on with it. The Spigot series comes with the fishtail mouthpiece as an alternative for those who don’t get on with the P.Lip.
