Those are great! I really like the Falcon bowls. Are they threaded? I might have to get one of those next week.

The Falcon bowls are threaded, the Sultan bent billiard is a screw in stem and the IMP is a push tem with delrin insert. The falcon bowls are block meerschaum with a pinned nylon 2 point threaded attachment and they work very well. As to the other two, I’m not a fan of screw in stems, the Sultan was a gift, needed some tweaking to open the stem but smokes alright. The IMP smokes great but I did open and funnel the bit end on that one as well.

Why do they call them meerschaum? Aren't these pipes made of ivory? :?:
