First post to join in...

This is my first post at this forum. I'm still looking over lots of past threads. I've never been one to jump in too quickly untill I go over the older posts. No need to rehash old conversations if they already exist. I'll get the avatar up soon too.

Last night I enjoyed some Presbyterian in my 4 clover Viprati. Probably the finest briar pipe in my collection. For now I own more pipes that vintage hats but I expect that to change as time goes by.

Anyway...Good to be here.

Ken

Well, I had to go back and smoke another one to be sure.
The Petit Edmundo is a bit shorter but also a bit fatter in ring gauge. They are fairly comparable in construction, taste and draw. The Petit Edmundo has a bit of an uneven burn compared to psdn4.
Now I have to go back and try the PSDN4 again to be sure.

Jamespwers and BobC,
You may want to look into the Hoyo Petit Robustos as well. I found that they compared favorably alongside both the PSD4 and Ramon Allones Specially Selected.

Long ashes!
