Horns: What Do You Think?

[OzPiper]

To me the horn ... when done right is very beautiful to look at

I have no desire to own and smoke one though.

My exact sentiments

It's technically neither. The bowl has a forward sweep to it while the chamber remains uncanted. It's a stylized bent dublin.

Thanks

Ask him how he knows?…Embers, would you post a pic of when you collected that shape?

Thank you, sir! I never get tired of seeing it.

They're a decent pipe. The 9004 is a more comfortable stem, and for some reason, the Bacco 904 was given a wider shank that slightly takes away from the sleek silhouette of the shape. I've only got the Alligator now.

I thought we were going to talk about horn stems. That's an itch that comes back every so often.

The horn shape has a certain sleekness to it - I'm a fan.

My simple minded brain objects to a bowl that isn't fairly vertical. Think I got ADS. LOL. Can you post an image of the burn you got?

Here is a screenshot of the bowl from the image on smokingpipes.com. The scorch occurred at about 10 o'clock on the inside of the rim. I don't have a photo of the pipe because I sold it back to SP. I don't want to show more of the pipe because I have a lot of respect for the carver

Are we talking about horns the shape or horn the animal part?

The former.

The itch is called being horny.
