When I first got into pipe smoking thirty years ago, I was strictly a no-nonsense straight billiard briar guy. But this time round, I’ve been all about cobs, and found the Dagner cob to be just the sweetest little thing to puff away on. I’m an instant convert to the stubby poker form factor, and it got me thinking about possibly picking up a similar stubby briar poker with a straight stem. First in line would seem to be the Dagner Ring of Fire, but what other recommendations do you have?
