Favorite pipe shape...

[eriksmokes85]

@captainprophesy yeah it truly always works that way! I always look at the amazing pipes at my local tobacconist but then he tells me the price so I have to hand it back to him and go home and buy another no name from amazon or ebay. Maybe one day ill be able to buy a "real" pipe
@gloucesterman you are not the first person who has told me about the heartburn thing.. when I lose a cob in the water I feel that its my offering to davy jones so that I have good luck on the water :wink:

My favourite shape is probably the Lumberman, but it's fun just to say Canadian anyway.
I'm also probably going to get a lot of Lovats sooner or later, for some reason it's the only normal (under 7") size pipe that really speaks to me.

Everything else I just want extra long.

@eriksmokes85 ... Yeah I agree, but unfortunately when I do find one I can't afford it Ha, aint that the way it works out!

Although this changes from year to year, I currently prefer bent Dublins.

Lovat/Billiard/Author.

...yeah, add to my rambling list Canadians and other associated long-stem shapes. Canadians are the stateliest shape to my eye, when I'm in a stately mood.

I favor the Prince, and Billiards and Pots, straight or bent. Mostly classic shapes, but not long pipes or nosewarmers. I like all kinds of shapes but find freehands the pipe I like the least. Usually just too heavy for me.

 

[crpntr1]

Bent billiard

 

[msandoval858]

Straight billiard for me. Love that classic shape.

 

[pipesndreams]

Canadians ans Princes for me.

 

[pipesndreams]

Canadians ans Princes for me. Oops. One handed post. Sorry for the dupe.

 

[shawnofthedead]

Straight bulldog, bent rhodesian, dublin/zulu, calabash.

 

[jackswilling]

Zulu. Virtually every pipe I have is a Zulu. Cob is Dublin, as that is closest to a Zulu.

After surveying my pipes, I'd say my preference is for billiards and similar shapes. The reality of my collection is all over the place. It even includes some shapes that I don't really like but I like the particular pipe in that shape that I own. :crazy: Obviously, I'm not much of a pipe collector, more a smoker I guess.

You folks made me order a new pipe! I haven't owned a spigot for a very long time (other one vanished a long time ago), and I am more and more liking rusticated finishes, and I didn't have a bent Rhodesian, so I killed three birds with one keystroke.

 

[brudnod]

Although this has nothing to do with pipe shape, there are lovely "pseudo-spigot" pipes out there that look just as nice if not better and the fit of the tenon into the mortice is more solid. Design Berlin has a number of them.

 

[disinformatique]

Chubby Everything, Nosewarmers (especially Dunhill 305), Bulldog, Rhodesians (bent and straight), Zulu, Dublin, Castello 55 and 10, Pot, Author, Diplomat, Banker, I love everything bent.

 

[pipebuddy]

I like 1/4 bent Brandys a lot. Ironically, I still do not owe one. That's a work in progress.

i really like nice warmers too. I have actually been wanting a poker nose warmer for sometime now but I can't afford anything decent and they seem to all be crazy expensive. I have also been looking at Mr. Brog pipes like the larger lumberjack and the giant.
