This is another pipe group that causes a good deal of controversy. There are those who feel that any bent Bulldog is a Rhodesian. Others believe that any round-shanked Bulldog is a Rhodesian. The prevailing opinion seems to favor Rhodesian pipes as round-shanked and Bulldog pipes as diamond-shanked, regardless of whether bent or straight. Pipe makers will continue to use their own interpretations, but for our purposes, this is the standard.
