How do you like those cobs with the bamboo stem compare to a classic cob ? I miss those Bonfire , last summer they make it illegal in my area to “save the planet “ they said??

In the words of Jim Inks 'I am posting this one early'. I have just slice up some Bosun's Plug as I watch the rain come pelting down. What a difference from this morning but then that's Florida for you. I will be using the same meerschaum as this morning but with a new Philt Pad as the old had seen betters days!
Amphora VA in an Old Dominion “Jamestowne” clay. I wrapped the stem with hemp wick.
2013 Peterson Old Dublin in Sasieni Four Dot Natural Lancashire
Just out of curiosity but why?
2005 Orlik Dark Strong Kentucky in a Jack Howell Billiard.
Smoking Marlin Flake in an AKB Meer. 
More comfortable to hold. And hold it, I must; clenching these clays makes my teeth feel funny. I have the Williamsburg version as well, and I did it with each. Super easy with hemp wick: just wrap it tight and it’s done. No knots, no adhesive, it stays put on its own.
Peterson Royal Yacht, maybe the second to the last bowl of this tin, in a traditional straight pot by Amadeus, a Greek pipe maker, that looks like an L.L. Bean Dr. Grabow pipe I used to have, but smokes better. The broad bowl spreads out the blend pieces a little better and gives fuller flavor, I think. This pipe has improved over the years, always satisfactory, but always improving.
Relaxing with some Wilke 531 in a Savinelli Series III 677.
Salty Dogs in a Countey Gentleman.
If you clench clay pipes you will wind up with 'pipe notches' in your teeth. I have them from smoking exclusively clay pipes when I was younger.
Home blended Hobbit Weed in a Vesz. Pipe cleaning day. I hate pipe cleaning day!
Same thing happened to me from vaping with metal drip tips
Half way through a bowl of Cherokee Black in a Knute freehand.
Did a set of walking reps, and smoked a bowl of D&R Ryback in a smooth straight late 1970s Charatan Special 4148DC Reg. No. 203573 pot with a black double comfort vulcanite stem.
Now smoking Cup O’Joes 25th Anniversary Blend in a 2003 medium bent Ural meer with a lined and etched egg shaped bowl with a silver band and a pearl brown acrylic saddle stem. Working on a review of this blend. A cup of hot tea is my drink.
