Vintage Kaywoodie estates are my favorite source for small bowl pipes (group 2 or group 1 size). It's easy to find them on ebay, often unsmoked or lightly smoked.

Yes indeed Mr. Logan - I have one myself - a KB&B to be precise
I have a little Carolina Gent cob with a relative smaller bowl. Carolina Gent Corn Cob Pipe - CornCobPipe.com - https://corncobpipe.com/product/carolina-gent-corn-cob-pipe/
Savinelli 626 is a great option. Also type in the word Prince. Many of them are like "skinny" 320ks's
If Savinelli is your cup of tea, check out the 315 or the 316. Perfect size and very comfortable pipes.

Good pipe retail sites give a complete set of specifications including the diameter of the chamber and depth. A small bowl is around .7 inches and an inch or less deep. So read those specs. Some small pipes have slightly larger bowl chambers, but you can fill any pipe partially for a shorter smoke. Small pipes are compact and well-suited to shorter smokes, sampling, or medium smokes with flake/coin/plug/rope cuts. A few sites use the old Dunhill Group categories, though the actual specs for these are elusive. Iwan Ries uses these, so I learned them from ordering their pipes. Group 1 & 2 are very small; Group 3 intermediate small; Group 4 is medium; and Groups 5 and 6 are extra large.
Might even order a clay pipe. They tend to be small too (and cheap)
Tim West makes a line of pipes called sidewalker, they seem to be good for a 15 -20 min smoke.
Perhaps a small meershaum would work.

@CoffeeAndBourbon Go for it!!!!
My thought exactly. But get another pipe anyway!Could you not fill a regular bowl, stop when you've had enough and come back to it later?
That's what I do. ?
I am amazed at how small cob inner diameters are and how well they smoke.
Cobs aside, most all of my pipes are less than 1.5” deep and between .75 and .80 inner diameter.
45 min to one hour are the norm and I genuinely like these dimensions.
If you’ve not smoked a cob, it’s something to try...at least once.
^^^ This... or just fill it halfway.Could you not fill a regular bowl, stop when you've had enough and come back to it later?

The cylinder count on my pipe collection has to go to "11" or multiples of that...Could you not fill a regular bowl, stop when you've had enough and come back to it later?
That's what I do. ?

The restored Kaywoodie 13b (author shape) arrived yesterday. It has a small bowl and much overall than I would have thought. I prefer to cradle the bowl.
There are a lot of great pipes with small bowls. I have a few Barlings, an Ashton, a Kurtz, a Meerschaum and a Comoy's that are good small bowl pipes and work really well for very strong tobaccos or flakes and plugs when I don't have time for a larger bowl.
I don't why you are making a big deal out of buying a cob. Hell, you can buy them all for $200 and smoke the one that works.
