The Legend Is A Legend

[dcicero]

Bought a MM Legend. Found it a bit ugly. After a handful of smokes, the stem has changed color. A beautiful rich amber color. Now I actually find it quite good looking. Also, it smokes and clenches like a champ. I'll always have one on hand. Any other Legend lovers out there?

It's my favorite cob.

That and the Morgan are my favorite MMs. Just got this modified legend back from EMC Custom Cobs:

Legendary....about 15 years old, missing the shank ring, and just look at that sweet amber stem.

Here here. However, I'm more into the Missouri Pride these days.

This is my favorite pipe. @BROBS sent this to me soon after I joined the forum. I I've easily smoked 500 bowls in it. That's even the original stem.

Holy shit is that cake?! ?

 

[BROBS]

But yes, the legend is one of their best pipes. It’s also so light that it’s almost like it’s not there.

I think so.

Yep was my first mm cob. Still going strong. I just got a couple prides though, think i prefer those, they are essentially the same though.

Are the prides just “natural” legends?

I think so. As a result they're lighter and diffuse heat away from the ember better.
