Will try a bowl later of the samples I got today, although I'm a little confused with the wood stem of the pipe being exposed in the bowl, I'm assuming I'll need to waste a good bit of tobacco each time to not burn the wood. Any advice? They are the missouri meerschaum cobs.
Don't sweat it.......first few bowls you may even taste the wood as you get to the bottom of the bowl,that'll go away quickly.With time a cake will form around the edges of the shank that extend into the bowl and it will appear as if it were made rounded.
Enjoy.........if you want a custom cob PM me for the website.
And NO I do not make custom pipe lighters..........Y'ALL STOP THAT!!!
