Favorite shape?

[SteveHorsfall]

Difficult to choose, but probably bent Rhodesian. I've got one, by Invicta Briars, smooth, and have got my eye on another, also by them, rusticated and stained black below the grooves, smooth and normal briar colour above.

Indeed! Well done simplicity.

On another note, I must admit that the horn shape has grown on me. I know, I know. A few years ago I would've counted myself among the "waste of good wood" ranks, but alas I have come to like 'em. Perhaps for the even simpler design.

 

[s.ireland]

You know what, E, I found a horn design that I ADORE. And what do ya know, it's a REVYAGIN!!!

How's that for elegant? No wasted wood there! Never say never I guess :lol:

I do like those!! ^^^ :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

Well, all you'd need is a weed burner to light it and 16 oz. of your favorite blend (and about 24 hours of uninterrupted smoking time, so as not to waste anything). :cyclops:

I also love saucers, especially if theyre a churchwarden. sadly, I cant find any saucers anywhere, let alone churchwarden saucers.

classic hourglass shape

or this one

And I love bents like this Ascorti....kinda looks like the official BofB pipe

 

[jlong]

Bent apples and brandys. Straight billards and canadians. Just got my first bent dublin. A 2011 XMAS Pete very similar to what kingcobra posted (or is that the same pipe?). Like that too but not as well as a bent brandy. Will have to try a bulldog. Preferably straight.

Same here WB.. They are wonderful Flake Smokers.. :cheers:

 

[Smoker99]

Bulldogs, cherrywoods, pokers, Rhodesians, and Oom Pauls. Have lately become fond of stacks in most any shape.

 

[loki993]

Lately It looks like Authors, Apple or Tomatos, bulldogs, squashed tomatos. For whatever reason the shorted and stubbier the better for me.

I just picked up a Kaywoodie 13B and Ill definitely be finding more of them. a Sav 320 is probably very close behind it too.

I still need a nice bent apple though.

 

[Headcharge]

Apples and bulldogs with a bend.

 

[Hiram-2011]

bent bulldogs/rhodesians, haven't tried a straight one yet.
