Missouri Meerschaum’s annual collaboration with American pipe tobacco company Cornell & Diehl, the Salem Woodsman offers an elevated rendition of the classic corn cob pipe and pays homage to C&D’s Carolinian roots.
Situated in western North Carolina, in the Appalachian foothills, Salem is neighbor to Morganton, the original location of Cornell & Diehl. As a pipe shape, the Salem Woodsman is a Churchwarden-like interpretation of the iconic corn cob, pairing a tall, rounded corn cob bowl to an elongated hardwood shank and abbreviated saddle stem. Said shank has been darkened to evoke the look of bamboo, and like all of the Missouri Meerschaum and Cornell & Diehl collaborative shapes, it features a high-quality acrylic stem, here paired to a flashy nickel accent.
Due to the nature of the corn cobs themselves, you may notice some chipping on the top edge of your pipe. This is perfectly normal and won’t in any way affect the way your pipe smokes. The chips only add to the charm and character of your corn cob pipe. Enjoy!

This is my favorite pipe for aromatic blends and it’s comfortable in the hand.

Have owned this pipe for a few months now and I have enjoyed its use. Its strength comes from its personality, of which it has much. One of my first long stem pipes as well. The Salem Woodsman arrived in good condition and has provided great smokes.

I just received this one today and can’t wait to fire it up, it’s absolutely gorgeous.
Having said that, I am also equally pleased with every single MM pipe I have ever bought.
Keep up the amazing work, customer service, I am looking forward to seeing what they come up with this Christmas, as I absolutely love the Morganton Caroler pipe.

I love this pipe! I went to MM looking for something with a small bowl but instead I couldn’t resist this beauty. I saved its first smoke for Halloween and enjoyed some Molto Dolce with it. She smokes beautifully and is super comfortable in the hand and mouth. I’m debating buying a second in case I somehow break or lose her. I’m a very new pipe smoker and I think I might have already found the perfect pipe for me.

Excellent pipe though uglier in person.
