Corn Cob Pipes - The perfect beginners weapon.....

[fatshotbud]

I snagged a free “Missouri Meerschaum” Corn Cob from Frenchy’s with my first purchase. Now I am thinking to buy a handful more – these things are great!

You can’t beat a pipe that is damn near disposable in price and smokes well.

What a great pipe for the newbie pipe smoker (like myself).
Over fill with tobacco and burn the bowl opening - big deal…
Too aggressive when emptying a spent load and dent it – no sweat…
Improper lighting technique or lighter used scorches the bowl lip – oh well…
Basically you get to hone your smoking skills without worry of trashing the more expensive pipes you will want in your collection.
Another up side – like the meerschaum pipes, they don’t really add anything to the flavor of whatever blend you happen to light up; thus making for good sampler pipes.
At less than $2 each you can beef up your rotation count too – sweet!

Corn Cobs – more than just a hygienic appliance
