Just Ordered My First Km


Recommended Posts

I've just ordered my first (probably not the last, but don't tell the missus) KM, I'm all excited!

This is the boy:



Listed on the site as 'the Trophy' but he always gives them odd names. I've never seen it anywhere before, but he does have some 'new' ones. I gather he got them direct and they're making their way to elsewhere as we speak. He's got a lot of the more regular ones you see too, the new style trimetals and so on. When I first saw it I wasn't sure but I definitely fell for it after looking a few times and I've been eyeing it up for weeks. He was selling out of a lot of the others I liked and I started to get scared so ordered it on the credit card for fear of missing my chance biggrin.gif

Seems there are odd occasional advantages to living in Europe, this guy with his crazy new KMs, Germany with their super cheap coals (going to order some Tom Cocochas soon, but I reckon I need to buy about 9 kilos to make it economical, mother will be pleased!)

What do you guys think of it? I'm in love with it, personally, and shall post a review when I get it so the other UK guys can see what these 'new' (apparently) KMs are like. The shop (hookahshop.co.uk) has a few KMs that haven't really been seen elsewhere, the Ghost, which is beautiful but kind of pricey, the Football, which Oscar from here has bought, and a couple of others which don't seem to have made their way to the US yet, so hopefully I can give you guys a little heads up.

Also, a little thanks for educating me! I pretty much just lurk right now, reading and learning, but soon enough hopefully I'll consider myself educated enough to give something back smile.gif

Nice hookah!

What i dont get is why TOM produces those cocochas AND cocobrico? Cocobrico comes in 1kg and cocochas in 3kg but isnt it kinda overkill to have 2 different names because of that? huh.gif

Love that one. Most KM's look too plain to me, this one has a beautiful stem and hose. Where did you get it from? If it's germany i might be able to get it without too high shipping cost.


They're in the UK, I think he ships to Germany but I couldn't tell you shipping costs. It's hookahshop.co.uk

Well, it arrived today and I just gone done smoking out of it, I'm in love biggrin.gif

Quality's lovely, smokes great, purges great. Much taller than I was expecting!

Few pics:







The handle on this hose is ridiculous!

And the single hole bowl I ordered with it out of curiosity, it was £4 I think so I figured worth trying. Actually worked really well, I packed in a fairly tight doughnut shape around the hole and the results were good. Certainly worth £4, anyway!

NICE! I'm loving that hose's color scheme. I was JUST thinking about making my own firepit clay bowls of the exact same design, apparently it's not as original an idea as I thought lol.

The bowl actually works great for a solo smoke, better than I expected. It's hard to see but there's a very slight rise towards the hole, it makes it easy to pack around it. I just wadge a doughnut it and both times I've unfoiled it after smoking the hole's still been clear of crap. Really good smoke. Still need to get myself a real phunnel, but I don't have the spare cash for a big enough order to order in from America yet. Next month maybe.
