Jake Hackert - Opinions on his pipes?

[bubbadreier]

I am really looking forward to getting a custom Jake Hackert pipe, the only problem is he isn't currently taking orders :crying:
So I thought I would talk to you guys and see who has one of his pipes, and what your thoughts are on them, while I wait to be able to place an order!!
Example Pipe:

Isn't he the guy who does custom corn cobs, like fancy bowls with diamond shanks, and etc?

 

[unclearthur]

Yep, that's him!

I have two of Jake's cobs and find them to be nice pipes....I especially like the vulcanite stem. Haven't acquired any of his briars thus far.... ::

Buckeye has a few of his pipes......

 

[bubbadreier]

Yeah I know he does! Is he the only one?

 

[bowhatchie]

Bubba... if his pipes were available.. where would you go to buy one? I can't find anyone who carries them nor a website for him?

There is, or at least was, a small B&M near his home that sold them on consignment I believe. Since his work work exposed on YouTube a while back I don't think he can keep up with the craziness that followed. The videos showed him as a one man operation working out of his two-car garage.

Saw one of his pipes on YouTube and it was amazing. He is definitely a talented artist. Don't know if I could afford one of his beauties though. I hope this link posts:
