Another Starter Thread With A Load Of Qs! Xd


Recommended Posts

Well, yes this is another "I'm gonna ask you all the stuff I want, and I'll make the most posts asking questions and blabla".

Well, I'm from Greece. I've been smoking hookah for a year or so and I realy enjoy it. Here in Greece you cant find stuff like KM hookahs or generaly original stuff from companies. You basicly find chinese or hand maade stuff.

Quality sucks.

So I'm in to buy from US, since I can't find any seller from Europe with all that stuff.

I wanted to buy a KM cause I've been reading they're the best.

But, I don't wanna spend a lot of money. So most ppl here keep advising to get a Mya QT. Well I might get that, but I dont want it transport it all the time. (i said that cuz most ppl asking for a setup to move around a lot and you guys say "get a QT") I just want something good and cheap. But reading that QT can smoke like a 33 KM realy makes me consider to buy one.

Also, I want a phunnel, cuz I read that can smoke for 2 hours. Small one. I think that buying Scalli mod too would be awsome.

Well, hookah-shisha has very high rates of shiping outside US, but hokah john was realy good price, so I would like to buy from him. (except if you have any europe seller to tell me)

I think that getting a washable hose would be perfect for my setup, but hookah john only has narbish right? It's not as good as nammor??

Would the phunnel work good with other that tangiers? maybe I'll get some tangiers too. Depends on how much will it cost.


I'll soon have more Qs. Sorry for all these, but I would like to be answered, cuz in forums most ppl answer 2 of the basic questions and then u have to post asking again xD

If you're trying to get it for the absolute cheapest price, there's a company on eBay that sells legit Khalil Mamoons for REALLY cheap compared to the online vendors. They're called Caravan Trading. Here's a link to one of their KMs:

[url="http://cgi.ebay.com/28-1-Hose-KHALIL-MAMOON-Ruby-Arabesque-HOOKAH-Egyptian-/360301064401?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item53e39df0d1"]http://cgi.ebay.com/...=item53e39df0d1[/url]

$65 for a KM is probably the best deal you're going to find. It'll smoke just as good as the expensive $150 ones.

And the QT is not just for travel. I owned a QT and loved it, but sold it to get a KM. They're really good hookahs. I got mine to produce clouds about 2/3 the size of clouds my KM puts out. Now I own a Mya Petite, a little 8-incher, and it smokes just as good as the QT. Amazing.

As for washables, it's whatever you like really. Nammor from Hookah-Shisha.com, Razan from Nazarhookah.com, or Narbish from Hookahjohn.com. They're all quality hoses, and should treat you good. The NuHose on HJ is something new. The people who have tried them said they are very good, a step up from the AF Healthy Hose. If you think you'd need them, pick some up. Me personally, I just have my own custom washable hose and it's all I need.

If you're going to get a phunnel, get a real Tangiers one from one of the trusted vendors. I recommend the small. And yes, Tangiers is awesome. I smoke it almost exclusively now. Start out with Lucid for your first time so you don't have as many issues.

Hope this helps.

Can you explain me why lucid is "easier" from noir and other stuff of tangiers? Cuz of acclimation?

Is there a thread whewre I can find info on How to recognize if a hookah is original KM?
[/quote]

There have been various threads. The main way most of us find the authentic KM's, is by the official Khalil Mamoon stamp on the tray.

There are also just several factors, juch as the hose port, purge valve, stem design... But for a sure fire way, check for the stamp.

Well, I think you're talking about where the Ash tray stands, cuz I've seen in the official KM thread, KMs that have an ashtray with stamp and other with not.

But here's the thing, I've seen hookahs with stamps like that in lounges we have here in Greece but it's fakes. I took a couple of pics to show you guys.

The first one has the words "TRADE" and "MARK" (that goes for trademark xD)

And the second one has egyptian letters which I can't read ^_^

So I think since these stamps will make it harder for me to find a real KM, but in these two hookahs I can see that the lotus isn't right xD

But there maybe hookahs with better stamps KM wannabe..

KMs never have TRADEMARK on them...

And yes, as Mavs said, Lucid is just a more forgiving tobacco. Usually when people go with Noir first off they're turned off to Tangiers immediately, because they either don't acclimate it or pack it right. It requires both to get Noir smoking good. Starting off with Lucid and working your way up to Noir is a much better thing to do. But, some people have started off with Noir right away and haven't had any problems.

Probably are knock offs, they don't even try to show off a brand name. They don't look like awful quality, though.
