[QUOTE="howellhandmade, post: 24159, member: 14"] I agree with the recommendation for Fikri Baki pipes. It is puzzling that so many meerschaum pipes are beautifully carved by prodigiously talented artisans but are inferior smoking instruments. Thick, uncomfortable bits, strangled airways, high drilling. Baki's pipes are very well made with an open draw and comfortable bits. I have five, and one, a silver-mounted bent ball, may be my favorite pipe. I have owned meers by Altinok, IMP, and SMS, and cannot recommend them based on my experience. [/QUOTE]
