What is Your Favorite Stem Shape?

[Jack Straw]

Overall I prefer saddles, especially nice beefy ones cut from rod stock. They have a nice feel and I like the look more. That said, there are some shapes that just need a taper bit to look their best.

Both are equally represented in my collection. No real preference - just whatever best complements the rest of the pipe.
