If the cob burns out, who cares. They're cheap. At least mine are. Those in the OP don't look too cheap.
Back to back bowls often in cobs. As said, they are cheap.

The only ones that I have that really are not cheap are the R.Santia cobs. The bone rings along each were a bit more than a 10 pipe grab bag.

I got the old ones on ebay cheap, and the bamboo shanks didn't cost a lot neither did the stems.
