I have always wanted one of these since I first saw one. They were for a special event and not mass produced until now. Just placed an order for the black one.

Originally made as a one time deal for the Mule Town Pipe Show. Here’s a better look at the ”Black out.” I believe it’s a joint deal with Missouri Meerschaum.
Right!? A little hefty, I agree. I don’t know I’m a sucker for these.
I see you posted in my thread I started a few months ago to inquire about re-releasing these.
I can’t believe that the black is already sold out..... ahhhh
I was early to post about a possible re-release now slow to buy LOL....
Damm that was insanely fast...
Moonshine Stoker Blackout Cob - MM Reissue? :: Pipe Talk
When I saw this pipe, all I could think was, WOW and I want one! Only to realize this was a special release only for the MuleTown Pipe Show held at BriarWorks in Columbia, Tennessee, last year. The only thing that comes close is to get a Briarworks Moonshine Stoker, but that’s Briar and I want...

That sucks man! I can tell you were super excited Hopefully they will keep making them. I contacted Briarworks after I saw it posted from the Mule Town Pipe Show. They said it was all about the price of production and there had to be a lot of interest to mass produce. So I would say they are a hit, they’ll make more no doubt. I didn’t see your thread until today, I wouldn’t have started this one.I see you posted in my thread I started a few months ago to inquire about re-releasing these.

AIN'T YOU SEEN THE PRICE O' CORN LATELY, BOY?!?!?!?!?
Disclaimer: I know nothing about the price of corn. I just like to shout like a disgruntled old man.

black corn is rare what ya gonna do?
I know that $45 dollars seems like a lot for a cob but I'm looking at it from this perspective. The planting and harvesting of the raw material, sorting the cobs for this run and shaping said material. Then the cobs are sent to Moonshine to be stained and fitted for what I am sure is a quality stem. New packaging (very nice by the way) and marketing. Lets not forget overhead costs like paying the folks to fill orders. This is a brief description at best for a labor intensive project collaborated by two fine pipe makers. $45 dollars gets you a pipe that will last a lfetime if taken care of. So yeah, I got one and while it's the most I've ever spent on a cob, I think its fair for what went into it. Not a deal, but fair. I will end by thanking MM and Moonshine for answering our request to make this pipe available to their loyal customers. ? Well done.
Well said! I completely agree, from the pictures they look extremely well made and I’ve no doubt quality control is in effect with these cobs In particular. I’ve found Briarworks/Moonshine to be a high quality company.
I take no issue with the price. There is definitely much to be said for a well made cob with all the trimmings. EMC Custom Cobs is proof of that.
You ain’t lived ‘til you’ve had Alaska corn. Comes out of the can delightfully pale, waterlogged, and mushy. Mmmmmmmm. If it’s wintered over at the cabin it has an extra gelatinous quality that’ll make you swoon. Literally if you don’t cook it long enough.
Plus that wet fart noise when it slides out into the pot in one big cylinder. Tough to beat!
There are already enough wet fart noises at my house, thank you!
I have no doubt that’s true. Wouldn’t be so bad if it didn’t itch when it dries.
