Feels Like A Cob Day

I highly recommend the MM Shire Cobbit to add to your cob collection. It is a semi-churchwarden and one of my favorite pipes.
Hells yeah! Every day feels like a cob day, especially at work.

Ha Ha, I love it. Those are awesome! Obvious work horses.
Thank you sir! The super dark one touching the plate is over 8 years old, somehow still kicking.
I do have more cobs just try to limit how much I smoke with the bad heart
My green one means the most about four years ago I had to mud it up after a few cracks my daughter who was 8 at the time decided it needed a paint job too

Cost less than one low priced briar and they smoke like Duhills ? ?

A good one indeed. Great for Virginia forward blends
For those that like them they are very nice.
I have a lot of respect for cobs, they take a beating but can handle it well.
Long Term Cob Torture Test: 6 Months Under The Elements :: Pipe Talk
Just took delivery of a Huck Finn cob courtesy Smokingpipes. I used Super saver international shipping, and the package was well packed and secure. How durable is a cob? How porous is the bowl? The conventional wisdom is that briar, being dried, aged, and much harder makes for a better pipe...

Few brands smoke as dependably well as MM cobs. They're easy to learn to smoke on, and they are great for experienced smokers too. Some may think they look too folksy, but I think they look jaunty and dapper for anyone. They're light weight, travel well, are compact, and with reasonable care last for decades in most cases. I used to buy the after-market acrylic stems, but now I just buy the special edition pipes that come with them. If the best things in life aren't always free, the MM cob illustrates that at least some of the best things in life are moderately priced indeed. A pipe for all seasons.
I would too. I smoke mostly cobs though lately I've been headed in a clay direction. The Cobbit Shire is in my regular rotation. I also like to smoke Dark Twist out of a Cobbit Wizard which is a rather large churchwarden style.
