Mya Obelisk Or Km 33" Tri Metal?


Recommended Posts

Decided to finally purchase a large hookah, decided to go with the Tri Metal, The Obelisk, Or the Km Sig Ice. Help me decide, the Obelisk is priced about 100 bucks more then the Km's but if it's really good, I would consider buying it.

Km Trimetal: http://www.hookah-shisha.com/p-5371-tall-t...oon-hookah.html

Help me decide tongue.gif, Whichever you pick, please give me the reason you didn't pick the other one and why you picked that one. Thanks,

look wise the may owns it man..its just sexy..not saying the km isnt..for me it would depend how much money i have left for shisha and coals if you dont have any on hand..because $80 buys alot of coals and shisha..lol so it would all depend on that..but if i had alot more for budget easily the mya man but eiter way dont forget to use the code for the free mini mya..then again using the code you get the free mya you could go with the tri metal km and also get a free mya..tons of options man..lol

Both are really good pipes. The Obelisk isn't a better pipe than the km though, so the only thing that could justify the difference in price for you and make you get the obelisk is that it is really beautifull. It is also convertible into a multi-hose hookah.

Otherwise, just get the KM and a bunch of shisha.

I just bought a Km Sig Ice and its one damn good pipe...
Personally I would get a Km and spend the rest on shisha and coals

Obelisk is an investment. As it will probably out last the KM. Yeah you can buy a lot of coals and shisha yes, but then you won't have to buy a pipe unless you want too. Obelisk will set you up for good.

Both pipes smoke very well....My km amer has been with me for around 5 years now, and I still use it everyday. SOO that disproves everyone saying the km isnt gonna last, just take care of it.
Ive also had my colossal for around 2 now and it still gets smoked as well.
Basically its gonna come down to asthetics, depending on your taste.
You cant go wrong either way so give it a good hard thought.

personally i think the obelisk is beautiful and so is the KM, i love my KM sig ice and my roomies KM trimetal, but i also love my new bambino. if it were me id most likely get the KM and coals and shisha unless i had some serious cash to throw around.

My vote goes to the KM. Beautiful pipe and that trimetal is sexy. Also it'll be pretty heavy duty, brass core and whatnot. The size is PERFECT as far as I'm concerned, not too tall, not too short.

And it comes with a badass black KM hose.

Get that pipe, get the free minimya for traveling and get some coals and shisha you've wanted to try.

Everyone needs to stop saying that a KM won't last, if you take care of it, it will last forever.

My tri metal has been used just about every day for ... i don't know maybe 14-15 months and the thing is solid, works just fine and is the same as it was day one.

And my mashal I have had for a couple weeks now and that thing is solid too.

As long as the KM has a brass heart it is pretty much guaranteed it will be quality. I don't think I have ever seen someone complain about a "tri-metal" or brass heart KM.

The only risk with km is getting one that isn't as high of quality as other km's - all handmade so quality can vary. In my experiences they are more often high quality than not.

Both pipes are nice, both will smoke well, mya is more restricted as stated, km is more loose as stated, figure out what you prefer, and buy it!

if you want something to last longer than you will get the mya
if you want 5 yr pipe get the km

there are gonna smoke the same

can you please tell me how you were able to put that length on the km? how do you know it will last up to 5 years but the day after it wont function anymore? because i would like to know how many days are left on my km? scratch_one-s_head.gif

op please do not put value in peoples opinions when they say the km will only last up to a certain amount of time..no matter how expensive a pipe is without care it wont list..with proper care it will last a longgggg time

H-S.com is out of their minds with those prices. you can get that tri metal for $80.00 at the Hookahstore.com with the forum discount. I have that exact KM and love it and paid $79.00 at Caravan trading. $144.00 because they throw in some shit you don't need like plastic hose tips and some lousy shisha worh $4 a box

I personally think a hookah pipe can last forever, I mean isnt it all jsut stainless steel, bronze or copper? I duno, Im no expert though so if I am wrong please explain to me how a pipe can go bad. And as far as KMs and Myas are concerned, I own 7 KMs and 3 Myas and to me it honestly doesn't feel like a dramatic difference in smoke quality. I personally think both can pull very well and the KM is just a tad bit easier than the Mya but some ppl like the little resistance. It's really up to aesthetics and what really matters is the hose guage and bowl and packing technique. My collection consists of KM americana from hookahjohn, KM super trimetal chiller from hookahjohn, 2 double pears from thehookah, OG trimetal, Mashal, worldcup, mya obelisk, mya QT, and mya acrylic.

i'd get a KM over a Mya....

it you like a very loose pull, the KM will be a great choice....the Mya's pull is slightly more restricted and some people prefer that.



The Mya looks alot better but I agree with you. I would go for the KM because it smokes as easy as you can breath, I have not got a buzz in years from smoking shisha until I bought the KM Trimetal.

Plus, those guys give you a great bag with it, also the base is sweet looking.

I like KM's better personally...

I've had my KM for awhile now and it still is the best hookah i've smoke out of. maybe i just feel that way because it is my own. lol laugh.gif
