Pipe Shape Suggestions

[mothernaturewilleatusallforbreakfast]

There's a 1/4 bent Dublin, a Billiard, and a... ? I'm looking for the third shape in the set. It will be a deep sandblast tapered stem. Vest Pocket? I can't decide?

Bulldog. Either straight or 1/4 bent

Yes you gotta have a bulldog!

 

[anthonyrosenthal74]

Bulldog or rhodesian, considering your preference of the two, brandy, apple, egg. Put them all in a hat and close your eyes and pick one.

 

[Olkofri]

Woof!

 

[didimauw]

Apple for the win!

 

[Waning Embers]

With that line up I'd go with a brandy. Not a fan of bulldogs and rhodesians at all.

Apple or brandy. Or a prince. Or an author.

This is like a test question from Elementary school.
Square, circle, triangle....blank...

Just a shape suggestion. My Dunhills are in a landfill somewhere now.

Yeah, but he's already got a Dublin, so that family's spoken for. My instantaneous thought, well before I saw the other guys', was bulldog, although a good apple would fill the blll too.

Good, leaves more for us.

Maybe a nice author shape? Savinelli 320 /321

 

[rfernand]

For kicks, a small apple

 

[mso489]

My prejudice, but I'd skip the vest pocket pipe if you mean the ones with the rotating folding stems. Many are sold, few are smoked. Bulldog, pot, or poker might provide variety.

 

[acidpox]

Bulldog or valcano is my vote

Are you a clencher or prefer to hold your pipe? I have an acorn shape that is great in hand. I'm not one to clench though, so I lean towards pipes with a good feel in hand.

I got this off of eBay for cheap but it is one of my favorite pipes. It is small but the bowl holds a generous amount of tobacco. It fits very nicely in my pocket. I did a general cleanup when I first got it but it smokes so well that I have not taken the time to do a better restorations job. It has some nice grain.

A dublin has a conical chamber while the zulu is cylindrical.
