Show off your Hardwood pipes

Couldn't find a thread anywhere, soo...
MM Ozark cherrywood

 

[jakecobb]

Real cherry, Made in France (I don't think it's a Ropp..).

Very nice indeed. Two winners. I'm still waiting for my first cherry wood pipe. Hopefully I'll get one this year.

 

[jakecobb]

Thank you. They smoke great, especially cherry blends. Just mind how hot you smoke, I blew out a Ropp deluxe while I was still learning. With a bic lighter at that, I have since 'discovered' matches.

I'm tempted to buy a full length hard wood pipe. I gave away my little one, cause it seemed like a toy. How's the stems on the MM hardwood pipes?

 

[jakecobb]

Same as the stems on the cobs, acrylic, so I imagine those forever stems should fit it if you want to customize.

H&B Andrew Jackson, Hickory.

I have several but a straight and bent MM maple fitted with nose warmer stems are the best.

 

[jakecobb]

That's a good idea. I've been curious about nose warmers, like the MM Dagner.

Ok way to force me into this... I just ordered one...thanks guys... :puffpipe:

 

[jakecobb]

Right on, what'd you get?

 

[darthcider]

Don't have a hardwood pipe, but that's a nice chunk of pipe rest.

 

[jakecobb]

Thanks @darthsider. Sometimes I get ideas of chopping it up and making a pipe out of it...

I have several cherrywood Ropp pipes and most are typical of the shape and style. However I have one that is a real whopper...it stands 20cm (8 inches) tall and sports a cavernous bowl!
I've never smoked it myself but when I got it as an estate It was clearly well smoked by someone. Second picture has a typical Lovat pipe alongside the Ropp for size comparison. It is simply stamped Ropp Deluxe with a letter 'T' in a circle underneath. Most certainly not a clenching pipe ::

Jay.

Good thing that's a poker, so you don't have to clench it. Very nice patina.

 

[didimauw]

I ordered the MM Ozark Mountain Bent. Looks good for mowing and fishing and stuff.

 

[jakecobb]

Cool, that's the one I got. The straight are a barrel shaped.

 

[didimauw]

Working on bashing in mine now.
That was supposed to say breaking in, but in my world, it's kind of the same thing, so I'll leave it.

 

[jakecobb]

Lookin' good. Did your pipe come with the pine wood shank, or did you swap it out?

 

[didimauw]

The pipe is how it came. I honestly have no idea what the shank is made of. Lol I think it's the way the camera flashed that made it look like that.
