Intrigued by this Missouri Meerschaum Elite Reverse Calabash cob. Anyone have one or tried one? Curious about the fitting of the shank to the bowl, how you like it, any other comments. Very tempted to get one.

Didn't Embers discontinue his use of MM products? I seem to remember that he had thrown them all in the trash? Perhaps I'm mistaken.
I smoke cobs quite a bit and wouldn't mind having one but the $50 price tag is too steep for me.

I don't recall, but then again I can't remember shit according to my wife (unless it's some trivial thing)
I can't remember what I had for breakfast. Did I even have breakfast?

I had the 2015 and 2018, that new one doesn't even look like they're trying anymore.
When MM went head shop I threw out all of my cobs and cut all ties with them. I still enjoy artisan cobs though.

not for quality issues though. If he wants he can explain or not.
I wonder how well or not those canni-cobs are whatever they call them sell. It seemed like a jump-the-shark move to me.
They really weren't a true reverse calabash so there's that, but they were MM's.
I believe he did explain. (Post #6)
nope that's his opinion on the current pipe shown. Which is different
If you want a reverse calabash, just smoke a filtered cob without the filter.
I guess I don't understand what you're saying/asking. He clearly stated that once MM started marketing pipes for marijuana use he threw ALL of his MM stuff in the trash. I don't remember him ever stating that there was a quality issue with the pipes themselves.
I've been doing that for years.
You are correct. Their quality is just fine. I once held them in the same regard as the best of my artisan pieces.

They really should see if they could get the licensing to use Cornholio to advertise their Cornabis collection!
after spending years saying they wouldn't ever do that.
Exactly my reasoning. Nothing against the activity but lack of corporate integrity rubs me the wrong way.
I can totally understand that. Especially without any real explanation.
One of my big moments with understanding corporations are two things. When Wegmans got rid of cigarettes the public side was about how much they care about your health. The internal memos all said they're lossing money and no one buys cigarettes from them so they're going to use the shelf space for something they can make money on.
