[QUOTE="Ocelot55, post: 439332, member: 2387"] I'll add my perspective as a pipe maker. I am in the market for a meerschaum right now. If it wasn't bad enough that most of the engineering was crap, as noted, the stems are even worse. Then one day I saw Scott Klein smoking a meerschaum with a beautiful Cumberland stem. I asked him about it and he told me he made the stem himself. Duh! Why didn't I think of that. So now, I'm looking for a nice meer with a push style stem that I can make a new stem for. That seems to be my best bet. I do think that without modification, Baki and SMS have had best engineering I've seen on a consistent basis, but my experience is limited, FWIW. [/QUOTE]
