I've tried this.

The idea is you light a candle, then use the wick and the candle to light the pipe, from then on.

So you only use your lighter or match once to light the candle.

It was fun for a while but I went back to my lighters out of habit and convenience.
But thanks for reminding me. Might try it again.

The hemp wick is much less fuss than a candle. With a candle you have an additional step of boiling dripped wax out of the pipe bowl.

"The idea is you light a candle, then light the wick with the candle and light the pipe with the wick.

You can then use the candle to light the wick as many times as you want"

I just dug my hempwick out from my other. "Pipe" and used it with some escudo. What a revelation for lighting your pipe.i don't think I'll ever use a soft flame lukey again.
