They're cobs for people who don't want to look like Popeye
...if they were cheaper, that is.
I have 3 of them and I like them a lot. They are simple and rugged and casual. When I smoke pipes I generally try to match the pipe to my outfit/mood. There are certain pipes in my collection that I will never smoke unless I am wearing a shirt with a collar. My bones pipes aren't fancy, but they are perfect for when I am doing some yard work or fishing in my carhartt jacket and my old jeans. I am particularly fond of the hangin brandy and the zuludog shape. I think bones short and stubby pipes have a lot of charm.
I only have three of them, but I would like a few more of them.
I like Chris Morgan’s aesthetic. I like how he mashes up the standard pipe shapes, his fat cutty pipe, his zuludog.
I have his Hourglass Poker and I like his other poker pipes, too, especially the arbutus poker.
I’m pretty late to his party. I’ve seen photos of pipes that people have had for a long time, and I wish I coulda bought a few of them back in the day. The Pegleg pipe is really cool.

That looks awesome...got me looking, now. To quote @BROBS ..."Thanks Dicks"So... Would this require a collared shirt or can I smoke it topless? ?
If you go back a page you'll see I've already fallen in the same trap. I have another 3 incoming to complete a 7-day set ?
?Not only are they reliable smokers, also love experimenting with finishing and staining on them.
Aesthetically speaking I think they're an eyesore. Especially the emblem, which is hideous. But if they smoke well I can tolerate hideous.
So... Would this require a collared shirt or can I smoke it topless? ?
you could smoke that topless while cooking bacon
Is that coloring just from smoking or did you stain it or otherwise?So... Would this require a collared shirt or can I smoke it topless? ?
Cooking bacon topless? I see you like to live dangerously...
Yea, I was practicing some staining.
My latest new one being de-virginized with some HU Nashville County:

I've been happy with my bones Purchases. Ruff & tumble smoke good and like meerschaum pipes fun to watch them age. The poker has not been smoked so has original color
Nice set up, for lunting and baseball!It's probably my favorite lunting instrument.
For what you get they are overpriced. For about the same money you get much more finished pipe from Rossi, which also doesn’t look like a nut sac with bunny ears on it. Lots of hype and you always see new gents to the hobby buy into it unfortunately lol
I own one and can say it is a great smoker. For the $...you can’t go wrong.

Sure thing, I only spent 40$, so....it's not the end all and I have other "finished pipes" that I don't want to worry about when out doing activities. I have cobs as well but this fits another niche as the cobs aren't as compact.
I am just hoping it's a good smoker!!
The 20 was the last bones that I bought. I'm very happy. Great open draw, large chamber, sits really well against the chin.
