i like my metal pipe, it comes apart for easy cleaning and if i wait long enough i can accumulate over a bowl's worth of res in 3 weeks, its also the first pipe i owned so a bit of metal taste has become nostalgic of my first times smoking.

if its not too short heating up isnt much of a problem and u never have to worry about dropping it

for the price its a really nice with skulls all over the shaft of the pipe
bought it a year ago and its still in one piece, most people with glass pipes cant say the same

best $25 i ever spent
