Sure that this has been gone over 1000 times or more, but becoming more confused as I go. Just looking for a couple short answers from folks I can trust. Is there a big difference in Cobb pipes, if so recommendations please. TY in advance for any help or insight, it's time to just do it.

    Buy the Missouri Meerschaum pipes, not the cob pipes from Asia. They come in filtered and unfiltered, I've only ever tried the unfiltered.

    I guess they have pipes with plaster of Paris coating on the outside, I prefer the natural cob pipes. Pay attention to the sizes.

    Someone else may be able to provide more insights.

    This is my favorite. It is lighter than the other mms since it hasn't been filled, it smokes drier and is cooler in the hand.

    I got this one as my first about a month ago and it’s treated me well. I didn’t even realize there was a filter in it for my first smoke but it probably saved my tongue some serious pain. I now smoke it without a filter and only slightly burn my tongue most of the time.

    I got a second one from the same brand that is smaller but I can’t actually fit my tamper all the way to the bottom. I can’t think of the name it but when I get off work I’ll look at the sticker on the bottom

    Can't tell you how much this means to get some down to earth basic answers. Thank you

    As I’ve said before, a corn cobb pipe is perfectly suited for an enjoyable smoking experience. The MM pipes are great.
    As much work as you do outside, I think this would be a great match for you.
    Personally, I don’t have any worries about dropping, leaving outside, forgetting to clean, etc etc a $10-$20 pipe as I would one of my nicer pipes.
    Food for thought.

    A good cigar and the open road solve most problems.

    Plus replaceable stems

    I don't think the term 'rougher than a cob' was referring to pipes but they are plenty durable

    A little dirt never hurt
