[QUOTE="ontariopiper, post: 532984, member: 3775"] I can't imagine Peterson opting to work with such an inferior material as Brylon. Must be a type in the ad (fingers crossed that I'm right!). You remember properly, Simple Man. Brylon is a cheap amalgam of briar dust and resin, much like particle board is made from sawdust and glue. I have one Medico made from Brylon I found near the beginning of my piping career. Fun to keep in the tackle box or hunting kit as the amterial is nigh indestructible but it doesn't make for a good smoke - the material heats up uncomfortably during use (clenchers only need apply!) and of course Brylon doesn't absorb moisture, so the smoke tends to bite regardless of blend.
