Recommended Posts

Yeah still bohemian

Opening is like 1-3/8 inches wide so not many shanks can fit down there.

Why buy a hookah when you can buy the bar?

I actually can't tell which place this is.

Hoping to get some help identifying these!

This one looks to have a nice base, but looks generic overall to me.

And this one..I am not to sure. Maybe a KM? Worth the price if it is?

Thanks for the quick response, I am going to contact the dealer for the vintage one tomorrow and see if i can meet with him to inspect. It does look pretty nice, and even as a show piece, 50 bucks does not seem bad. Might be able to talk him down a little bit if its not in the cleanest condition.

Debating on the KM, sense I know it is a KM now!

If you do get the vintage one, you HAVE to post pics! You'll probably be able to tell if its a KM upon closer inspection. It'll probably have the stamps on the tray rest and maybe even the hose port (I know they used to stamp a lot of the older models on the hose port, but not anymore).

You answered me next question, what are ways I could identify if it was a KM or not. Do we have a thread anywhere that states how to tell a "real" hookah (KM, Nammor, Mya, etc) from a fake knock off?

Well, most Egyptian pipes (including KM) have a big stamp on the tray support. It'll say KHALIL MAMOON خليل مأمون . As for Mya, there's a very specific Mya look, I suggest you check their website and familiarize yourself with it. The heart and ports are probably the most distinctive element

KM hose port and purge:

Note, however, that some older KMs have a slightly different hose port that (like the one in your Craigslist ad). Only model I can think of right now that has a that hose port still today is the Kafae, as seen here on Dizz's trade thread: http://www.hookahforum.com/topic/43159-fs-old-school-km-kafae/
