Pipe Shapes You're On The Fence About...

[peckinpahhombre]

Harris, don't think you can just pop into the forum every three weeks and post a long and rambling missive that nobody reads and and then leave again. We were all enjoying the solitude while you were off to Sweden to get your operation. We are really glad that you have come to terms with your sexual identity, but please find another forum to post your meandering epistles.

A poker is like a Fat Women she keeps you warm in the winter, shady in the summer. Pokers are the comfort food of pipes, remember a good cook stays and good looks goes. Harris I"m tired of you letting a Canuk takeing advantage of a Handsome American, show him your 7 day set of lacy panties,that goes with the 7 day Rad set Peck keeps his hidden.

Ouch. The Son of Sarasota is slammed by the Old Cajun. Like Harris's back wasn't bad enough.

Sorry to turn this into a competition about whose penis is larger. I hate those sorts of competitions. Oh, I have been in a few, but as a Canadian I am quite modest - so I only take out enough to win.

So who's was it you took out?? Are you still together...

 

[mrmotoyoshi]

I love pokers, billairds and lovats. I really want a skater/tomohawk.
A shape I'm on the fence about is a Canadian. I love it sometimes, I hate it sometimes.
Shapes I would never buy are a Zulu or Horn

Peck and Bradley...

I think any shape can be wrong or right and my tastes change depending on what's available. But, to me, a billiard seems "predictable", a bulldog "right", despite the fact I can never seem to find one as good as the only one I have! Dublins are the shape I have most of and there is somethng spectacularly re-assuring about a blond, quater-bent Dublin. Pots and pokers seem to be to be makng a utilitarian statement too far. Bents? Be a man and get an Ooom Paul! I have a Dunhill Amber Root 5102 that looks like it was taken straight from a beautiful, extinct sea creature. It all depends.

The Cavalier. Sometimes I look at them and go "sleek and sexy, hmmm..." Other times I just feel they look clumsy and awkward. I teeter totter, can't decide either way.

Welcome bullets! Who's that in the pic?

[bulletsnbriars]

Howdy Andy! That's Donald "Duck" Dunn, a famous bassist. He most famously appeared in both blues brothers films, smoking a pipe through out. He was very talented, unfortunately he passed away recently. We both share a fondness for bass, pipe, and reside in Tennessee, so I felt it was a good representation.

Six: that is a questionable shape for me too. The extra thickness around the bowl and cooling fin make for a cooler smoke, but the bulldog is ugly to my eyes, and the bowl is too short. The only ones I have are in the Peterson meerschaum collection.

 

[harlockfan]

I have to agree with Foggymountain. I am really not a fan of the bulldog!! Definitely not my style!

 

[tslex]

Funny, because my default shape is a bulldog, straight or bent.
Just goes to show you.
I am on the fence about zulus, but leaning more that way.
Simply cannot get into Canadians of lovats. Who can say why?

 

[clickklick]

Zulus, Skaters, and Castello 55s.

 

[mhasman]

+1 bulldogger

 

[rangerearthpig]

Although my grandkids give them great reviews, and while they are extremely affordable, I'm still on the fence on this one:

 

[lordofthepiperings]

A few years ago I didn't think I'd ever be into straight billiards, I now have two. Also was on the fence about bulldogs, but once I bought a Peterson 80s I'm now in love with the shape.
I'd have to say right now the shape that I could never see myself buying would have to be the pot. I second the notion that it looks like a billiard that's missing its top half.

 

[12pups]

DNA tests be damned -- my pipe tastes prove a Scot-Dutch bloodline:
I like the look of any freehand whose hand is missing.
And any pipe wearing a price tag with more than two numbers in front of its decimal point hurts my eyes (unless its falls into category 1).
(Like all traditional shapes; dislike a lot of bizarre art experiments involving geometry and opaque paint).

poker, straight bulldog, Dublin, wide shank(e.g. the blowfish), panel, straight apple/tomato...to be continued.
