Favorite Pipe, Hands Down
Jun 03, 2023
I work outdoors, so I get to smoke as often as I'd like. I have probably smoked this pipe for hundreds of hours at this point, and it's the most-used out of the 12 or so that I own - beating out the Big Bens or Rossis or Savinellis by far. It has a nice, long 30-45 minute smoke depending on the moisture content and surface area of the blend.
It pairs beautifully with naturals like Granger, Half and Half, and Barking Dog, but also does well with light aromatics like Smoker's Pride Rum, Lane Bulk Hazelnut, or other similar blends. Since it has a average-to-narrow bowl diameter and is a corn cob, it tends to either not let more complex aromatics reach their best potential, or impart a flavor on them that can detract from the overall profile.
Keeping that in mind and deciding what to smoke based on that information, you'll have a durable, enjoyable, and timeless pipe to add to or even to start your collection.

Better than briar and less expensive
May 31, 2022
In brief: I have at this moment 6 of the General bents. Each day Monday thru Saturday I smoke one all day while in my shop. Sunday you ask, well that is a day of rest on the patio with a couple of fine cigars. About once a year I have to eliminate and purchase two new ones due stem squish from clenching. This routine has been the norm for six or so years. Yes I like these, they smoke the same from fresh to extremely worn. Too bad only 5 stars are an option.

a long smoke and great value
May 24, 2022
The General cob is big enough to provide a nice, long smoke, especially nice when I've settled in for a good reading session. It is a bit heavier than is usual for a cob but not too heavy to clench. The Pipes and Cigars price makes it a heck of a good value.

Nov 20, 2020
I originally bought this for extended smoking times during fishing or similar activities.
However, the size and weight make it a bit unwieldy to clench for very long. Otherwise, the quality and smoking experience is what I'd expect from a decent cob.

The brief, I have approximately 16 MM pipes of assorted styles, half of which are Gentlemen Bent. I have in the past smoked inexpensive to expensive pipes, all of those usually had vulcanite or Italian "?" stems, I prefer acrylic or plastic, MM is priced right, no break in time, smokes great from the start and NO VULCANITE.

Looks way different than the photo. I thought it would have more length below the stem. Looks exactly like my diplomat with a taller chamber. Hardly get a "General" vibe from it. Black plastic stem is cheeeeaaap. It's a cheap pipe though, so what do you expect. Also had chipping around the bowl. For 9 bucks tough can't complain too much, smokes like a cob.

The General
Mar 07, 2016
The General is awesome! Big enough for a nice long smoke yet (surprisingly) light enough to clench without causing tetanus/ lock jaw type symptoms. Sweet and dry smoke as you'd expect from a cob even after you remove and throw away the annoying, flavor stealing paper filter. For the price, buy several. They will take the abuse of being an all day/ glove compartment/ camping/ yardworking pipe without the worry associated with keeping your Dunhills, Ashton's etc. in the center console of your truck. If you're on the fence, commit. You'll love it.

The M.M. tobaccos are specifically designed to go with their cobs and it shows. This is a great quality pipe at a steal of a price.

Good for the sale price at P&C
Oct 25, 2015
If I were to judge this pipe based on how much I enjoy it for $8.99 I would give it a 4.5 or 5-star review. In fact I am looking forward to smoking from it tonight. BUT the stem is so loose in the shank that it turns a little each time I put it to my mouth. Also the shape of mine is quite different. I got a shorter one with the shank closer to the bottom and the stem is hardly bent at all - but the shank is angled and the stem definitely IS bent a little.
As for the smoke, the first smoke I had from it was McClelland's Nutty Hazel from a local shop and it was the best experience I've had with the blend. It also provided the coolest driest smoke (with the filter) that I have ever experienced with any of my briar pipes.
I'm definitely ordering more Corn Cop pipes - they are GREAT!
Mine has a little bit of laquer around the edges of the bowl at the very top and a couple chunks in the bowl that I chipped out.
Lastly - I *DID* try to fix the stem by heating it up and expanding it - now it barely gets into the shank but once it gets seated it loosens up and can spin freely again. I might buy a few cheaper ones and try some experiments.

Same great quality of the Country Gentleman, but with a bowl deep enough for a full shift on the water. Very Pleased.

Cobs a mighty
Sep 04, 2015
There's no mistaking your smoking a cob with this one. Its a little heavy for a clincher but for a holder like me its great. Great big bowl smokes a long time for those evenings when you just want to kick back and get lost for a while. It is well worth the money at double the price. I would (and have) recommended it to anyone.

Great pipe.
Aug 26, 2015
The pipe is a great smoker and hangs well too. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because the stem mortise became very loose after a few weeks.

Man, This pipe rocks! The epitome of corn cobs! I really love its tall deep bowl. It makes C and D's Big and burley and Prince Albert that much more fun to smoke. The only complaint I have is that the stem fits a little too snugly into the pipe. Howe

5 Star General
Aug 21, 2015
Substantial, thick walled cob especially suitable for parfait packs, air pocket top packing and fold n stuff. Not exactly a clencher but a good/great easy chair pipe. Can't say enough good things about Pipes and Cigars who also garners 5 stars. Quite deservedly.

Definitely worth the cost of admission. This pipe offers a long, cool, dry smoke.

A great smoking, cheap, and durable pipe that can be smoked while working or relaxing!

A great smoker, mine loves virgina perique blends. It's a good pipe to smoke while working and relaxing - it does it all. And if it gets broken they're cheap and can be replaced easily! Two thumbs way up, and I will definitely order more of them! Keep on puffin yall!

In my rotation I have a Savinelli Dry System 2604, a Nording Freehand, a Wellington 9.5", a Luciano SP A1281 and a Stanwell Royal Guard, I hate realizing how much money I wasted trying to find the right pipe, My Missouri Meerschaum General is a wonderful Pipe, I love it, after 3 bowls in this pipe I'm gonna order about 6 more, and dedicate them to each tobacco I smoke. Well worth the money.

I have many MM cob pipes,the General being the newest one in my collection. This thing is the "boss"...for a large pipe,it's not too heavy for clinching & gives a nice long smoke. You will be pleased with this big 'ol cob & Pipes And Cigars fast shipping.
AG of Grover, NC
I love the look and feel of the Generals. They smoke great and hold lots of tobacco. Missouri Meerschaum makes a great cob pipe.

I have a MM General used for a slow smoke competition. Its now one of my favorite pipes, especially for VaPer flakes. I added a forever stem and have not been happier.
JH of Lagrange, GA
I just got the General Straight a week ago and have been smoking it every night when I get home from work. Its performing wonderfully and I am someone who smokes the pipe right down to the ashes and the pipe has not gotten too hot to hold at all.I smoke virginia/periques exclusively and it draws very well. Great pipe for the price. One con, the stem is not very strong so i would suggest adding a soft bit on the end so you dont damage it with your teeth. mine is all scratched up and I dont clench tightly. I just let it rest in my mouth, but the weight of the pipe+tobacco pushes it into my teeth.
CS of Newark, NJ
All around great pipe that has cultural significance. Durable, clean smoke and a bit of style that is not found among briar pipes and gains a bit of character after a good amount of use- that and the price cannot be beat.
JG of Hot Springs Village, AR
I love my Missouri Meerschaums and the General is awesome... it's deep bowl provides a nice long smoke that lets you really enjoy your tobacco!
CS of Madison, AL
The MM General I received gets very hot no matter how slow and soft I try to smoke it. It tastes and smells like chemicals. To strong to even taste my tobacco. The hardwood plug at the bottom is not completely air tight, and the top walls of the chamber is thin on one side, with holes in it. I'm pretty disappointed with it, to say the least. With that said, I've been happy with every other MO Meerschaum product I've tried - and judging by other reviews, this was just a fluke. (Although I'm really not sure how this pipe made it past quality control) I definitely plan on purchasing another one and just hope that I will have better luck with the next one.
DS of Lynwood, IL
The General is a good quality cob. The bowl is easy to pack, and it's not too heavy despite how large it is. It's nice and sturdy with a better than average cob stem. Relights can be tricky if the tobacco is getting low in the chamber, but I'm still getting used to it.
MV of Edgewater Park, NJ
I own 2 of these, one bent and one strait. They both smoke fantastically and if I take my time like I am supposed to, I usually get a nice hour to an hour and a half (depending on tobacco of course) smoke. My strait one is a bit bigger but that was because of the shortage at MM, but both are fantastic. I wanted something for a longer smoke but not so much so to get a MacArthur. This is a great pipe for those who want a longer smoke for a very affordable price.
BH of Breckenridge, MN
I love this pipe. Cool smoking and can easily last an hour fully packed
AA of Jacksonville, FL
This is really a wonderful pipe for a long smoke. The MM Cob design really delivers in cooling down the smoke and allowing you to taste the full spectrum of flavors from what every type of tobacco you are using at the time. Plus.. as an added bonus.. any MM cob pipe is a real workhorse that does not require any long periods of rest. I have smoked MM cobs several times a day every day without any problems. If you have never tried one... then give it a go.. you will not be disappointed.
