My 3 Amigos

[cunningmc]

These are my 3 most frequently used pipes - a Missouri Meerschaum Country Gentleman, a Missouri Meerschaum Mini, and a Brittania Black Sandblasted Briar. I really enjoy the craftmanship of the Brittania, but both of the Missouris smoke really well, and I enjoy the portability of the mini, especially if I am looking for a quick smoke.

Nice pipes but beware of PAD and if I may sujest that you add a softy bit to your Gent that style of bit chews up pretty easy.

add a softy bit to your Gent

I second this motion. My Gent is a good example of what pawpaw is talking about.
Nice pipes! Can't go wrong with a corncob pipe from MM. Enjoy and happy puffing! ::

Thank your for the heads up on PAD - The MM's were a spontaneous purchase as I'd never had corn-cobs and they seemed like must haves - and I definitely see your point on the bit for the 'gent. I've only had it for a short time and I've already learned to not bite down on the stem - very easily chewed up! They smoke so well though, especially in this summer heat!

yep I was puffin on a cob earlier today and for a quick smoker you may wanna look at a Dr Grabow Lark or Duke

I've seen the Dr. Grabow pipes in the local Rite-Aid and Smoker's Choice shops, but have just never picked one up. I'll have to check them out. I used to have a "Q-Brand" pipe several years back, but it was stolen at a party and I've missed it terribly ever since. I've yet to find anything quite like it, at least for my taste.

Love my cobs, but been leaning to my brogs more and more.
