The standard Rusticated Eltang poker is about 22g and it feels non-existent in the clench. It's a strange combination of sturdy and delicate. They already have thin walls, and the rustication removes even more material.
Here's the rusticated Mini Aj on sp for specs. 8.5g

Cool to see how much weight/material is actually removed by his rustication.
Only 8.5grI cant imagine any pipe weighing 8.5 grams other than a Japanese kiseru.

I owned a Peterson Belgique. Very lightweight and a great smoker. Looks like they've added a shank band since the model I owned. My shank cracked very easily.
Also, I was serious about emailing Tom. That's his official email listed on his website. Tom@eltang.com

8.5g for a briar? They likely forgot to put a 1 before the 8.
No shortage of pipes similar to your post at 17 to 20g. Rossi Piccolo, Ropp Etudiant, a few different Petersons, Tsuge Capito, Scott's Pipes has a couple as well.
The Savinelli Minuto 109 is the lightest Iv'e seen at a sea hair over 14g, and depending on your budget, Eltang has a Pencil shank that's around 14g as well.
I cant' imagine briar pipes getting lighter than that, not saying they don't, just can't picture it.

I think they made a mistake in the weight on SP.com. There is a smooth Eltang AJ listed at the Danish Pipe Shop that is 20 g. Tom is affiliated with the Danish Pipe Shop so it’s worth keeping an eye on their website for a similar pipe.
my Tsuge Metal Blowfish is. And well basically it's a briar kiseru in my opinion. Great for waiting for the bus or on break and not much more

@Rustamgtx I posted an Eltang Arne, in another post you were asking.
Now if Danish is on your mind, lightweight like Eltang’s pipes, are you familiar with Mike Sebastian Bay?
Mike tutored under Tom, and I believe he still works with Tom, and uses his workshop to make his pipes in. A lot of them have a similar Eltang look, and Mike’s thing is making smaller light weight pipes too.
Bay Denmark pipes are quality.
The two Apple with bamboo at Tabaccheria Corti, this is Mike’s signature small light weight type/styles;
17-18 grams...
Be aware they are smaller pipes, but great smokers!

Here’s a pic of Mike holding a similar Apple with bamboo, which is probably close to those two, to give you an idea.

Mike Sebastian Bay is behind Bay Pipes. Mike is one of the new young upcoming Danish pipemakers and he has been a part of the team by Tom Eltang since 2015. Mike soon began to apprentice in Eltang's shop part-time, which eventually led to Tom teaching Bay the ins and outs of the craft. Before...
