Anyone Smoke A White Elephant Pipe?

[Auxsender]

While perusing the online pipe world, as one does, I came across the White Elephant “Sahara” pipe.
As far as I know it’s unique in that it comes with a graphite insert which apparently has some qualities that make it real easy to smoke tobacco in.
Anyway, just looking for tales of experience with these pipes or pipes that have graphite inverts in general.

HERE is the pipe I’m referring to.

Interesting but being a mass produced pipe you don't get the one pictured. At that price point I'd be leary of a blind purchase.

No.

I think WE makes very good 9mm pipes. I'm considering their Serengeti line which is less expensive. I defintely would not want to try these new ash wood pipes with graphite inserts without lots of feedback. I don't think there is much information out there. Many are hesitant to buy for the same reason.

Ideal to safely smoke plutonium blends. Go nicely with an uranium tamper.

Cant answer the question, but would like a little more info on the brand myself. I'm looking at a bent Rhodesian.
