Travis Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 [quote name='IainUM' timestamp='1298391073' post='498880'] that hose port handle is obnoxious [/quote] Indeed, But thats the glory of a Tundra Hose, you can remove it fairly easily and cut it down. As for the pipe, It looks legit to me. Hell if you werent over-seas I'd sell you my Amer for 1/3 of that price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchard Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Body is the same as the Amer, but I haven't seen an Amer with that hose port before. They have all been like the one Incubus posted from hookahcompany.com It might just be a change they made in the design. But I do own an Amer, and its a great pipe. One of my favorite KM pipes since its not very big. Easy to clean it really fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epoch Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 GET IT. Looks good to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchard Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Actually, its a bit different than the old Amer. [img]http://i808.photobucket.com/albums/zz3/cuttingaway/SDC18553.jpg[/img] Thats mine, with the brass core. The started making the new ones like most of the normal stainless ones apparently. Kinda lame. Still should smoke fine though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HC has stock of both "open" brass and closed stainless steel Amers. i like the look of the open bell, however it's a pain to clean.

liquidglass Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Well I've got a few KMs myself and while I"m not an expert it looks legit except for the raised pattern on the tray holder. That's the only thing I noticed but more than likely that's just a new design they're using. Looks legit though. Def not chinese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I've got one that has it raised instead of cut into the tray holder. And it's got the lotus, so I'm pretty sure you're right and I sincerely doubt it's a fake.
