im diggin the first one. I like the tiny beaker bottom =P


Anyways i hope you've owned a Blackleaf before and know how to handle them because you have to be super careful, they are pretty thin glass. It states 5mm But its definintly not, It's more like 3.2mm. I own the BlackLeaf Nautilus and although the bong hits amazingly and has physically no drag, if i could go back in time i would get something different. Everytime i clean this thing out i have to be super careful not to let it come into contact with ANYTHING. But if you're okay with that then more power to ya!

go with the straight. you wont regret it. i've had and used just about every style of bong, and straight is the way to go. just as much diffusion as beaker, but 100x less chug/drag.

ehhhh. i would look into a diffused down stem as well.

Two bong left, which to take?

Percolater Bong



or

Percolator Bong Ice 'Black Leaf ELITE' 8 arm tree perc



What I like in both these glasses, that they are 5mm thick, both have separate bottom glass plate from the rest of the bong and percolators.
My concerns about the second bong that it has lack of drag with all those features packed in the small piece and fragile.
First peace, good size, few perc's - less to break, thick glass, ice picks, hard bottom part and a large bowl (if I'm seeing right in that picture)

As i already stated, the glass isnt gonna be 5mm thick. Thats what they said my black leaf Nautilus is, But i can ASSURE you it's not. It will be thinner than you think. One wrong move with that blackleaf and it is going to be over.

But out of the two i would go with the one on the bottom. Splashguards really do come in handy when bongs have percs. Especially tiny bongs like that.

If I HAD to choose, I'd say 3.


BUT I would just get a straight tube, with an ashcatcher/filter.. preferably 18mm glass on glass

Not sure how much your looking to spend, but I'd just save a little more. It's like $245 for that setup, but the setup is like 8 times the quality.. most probably a WAY smoother hit too.


Just sayin'

Don't see any splash guard differences in those bongs. The top one doesn't have splash guard?

Sr. Verde
Will check if I can manage that kind of setup. Thanks for advice.
