Ozark Hardwood Pipes From Missouri Meerschaum

[jpbass]

Has anyone tried one of these ? What is the quality of the smoke in comparison to say, a cob, a briar ? I was considerring picking one up. They are SO cheap.

I have one, It smokes that's all I can say. Cobs are 100 times better smoking I think.

I have two that I take with me camping. They work okay. They're nothing great, but they're certainly cheap enough.

I have one that lives in the glovebox of my truck. Just in case kinda thing.

As noted above, they smoke but... For a 'nuther buck get a cob. You'll be much happier!

While they don't measure up to cobs or most briar, I do like them for short smokes. If you pack them loosely and don't puff like a freight train you'll get a nice, fairly cool smoke. While I usually buy my cobs a dozen at a time, I never buy more than two Ozark Mountain pipes at a time. A very nice addition to any rotation, given how inexpensive they are.

I have one and it smokes. Not well but it smokes. My biggest complaint is the bowl gets as hot as a poker. This forces me to smoke REALLY slow and I'm usually not that patient. YMMV.

my dad had one i believe, and he liked it

There's a tobacconist in my area that sells them for $30 a piece, calling them 'artisanal pipes'. They cater to cigar smokers like most do, hoping to sucker some poor uninformed person into buying one.

Me too, and it does smoke, but that is its only redeeming factor. I very rarely smoke it. Usually then, only to remind myself just how bad it really is.

MM Ozark pipes are a regular in my rotation and i enjoy them as much as my briars or cobs.

 

[oldjazzlover]

I have one of each, they aren't bad for the price. But I still love my cobs better!

OK so the general consensus here, though mixed is heavily on the side of they are not all that special. I've really gotten back into cobs recently, and think I'll pass on the Ozark in favor of another cob. Thanks for your input.
