The Dagner Poker Cob from Missouri Meerschaum was designed by Jayson Dagner in the classic poker style. While the dimensions of the pipe are purposely compact for easy storage, such as in your shirt pocket, its bowl holds plenty of tobacco for a leisurely smoke.
A dark stain has been added to the finish of the bowl, and it has a hardwood insert in the bottom imprinted with a logo unique to this pipe. The shank is also hardwood and is fitted with a nickel band and acrylic stem.
The Dagner Poker Cob is the perfect pipe to be taken anywhere for a leisurely smoke or to be clenched in your teeth while working with both hands. And as with all poker-style pipes, it will sit quietly at rest while waiting for the next time you need its company.
Corn cobs have a slightly bad reputation, they are seen as the disposable pipe. A cheap alternative to briar and therefore inferior too, but thats not fair at all. The Missouri Meerschaum pipes are made by hand, using specifically bread corn. The porous husk allows for a dryer smoke, absorbing the moisture and like Clay & Meerschaum smokes very cool. Unlike Briar and other wooden pipes, a carbon cake is not required. The first few smokes have a sweet, nutty taste but after that the pipe holds no background flavours and always gives a pure taste to the tobacco. Many blenders (our self's included) use Missouri Meerschaum Corn Cob pipes to sample blends, for the neutral taste.
