GeorgieHC Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 The Pharonie for sure ... forget about looks that's personal preference. The metals and construction of the tri metals will last much longer compared to the Signature, I can't speak for the AF hookah they are pretty pimp tho. But the hose and check valve lines are thicker brass as well as the heart being all brass. The copper downtubes don't rust.. well at least the red "lock jaw" rust that most "stainless" pipes do. Yes the exterior will lose its shine if you do not polish it.. some of the older tri metals I have look cool all tarnished. Here is the main thing the brass will have to brazed and can not be soldered and that higher heat form of bonding will make for a longer lasting, stronger pipe. Just my opinion 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antouwan Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 very tough call for me between the pharonie and the large AF solid. i have both a og trimetal (similar to the pharonie) and a 30" AF solid. the AF smokes easily comparably to the kms. the AF is the only pipe i've been using since i got it more than a week ago. i smoke daily so that should say something. imo if you've never/do not own a km def go with the pharonie. if you already have a km - go with the AF.

no longer welcome Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 the sig looks great but i'm not sure most of you know it's hollow, like the pear/exotica/amer stems. the pharonie has some solid parts throughout the stem and has the trimetal feature. it's up to you and your preference but I wanted to add in thta little tidbit. if the sig was a solid rig i would probably have one in my collection. great look.

Stuie Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 Yeah the sig is hollow in the main shaft, but it's dead sexy. I love just the look of it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helix746 Posted December 11, 2009 Author Share Posted December 11, 2009 i think i will go with the pharonie since john has it in stock but i do want to get a red base with it, i think that a red base and red narbish would look great with the tri metal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
