Pocket Pipes

[Misanthrope]

Oh, and I also have a bunch of Morgan Bones pipes, most of them are small, stout, and eminently pocketable, but they're basically unfinished Molina factory seconds with wanky branding that I couldn't resist. They usually smoke nicely, but are priced right around where a brand new non-second Molina would cost, so you might be better off with those unless you like laser etched bunny ear logos and dollar store meerschaum color shifts.

Nording of course is pretty well known for crafting pipes that are larger than average, but he also produces these neat little duck pipes. They can be found from time to time on Ebay if you search for them. Mine was purchased from Val Shannahan through Facebook. Some of you may know of him. The...

I have since added one of the ducks from that thread to my collection. Far too small to smoke, but an interesting piece nonetheless.

Here’s a true pocket pipe. In addition to the removable stem, the shank unscrews from the bowl. The whole pipe can be placed in a watch pocket.

I have one for sale here on the Forum. Smooth with Fumed Stain. It’s identical to the Smoking Pipes one.

Not sure if they qualify as pocket pipes, but I really enjoy my Castello opera pipes. A nice quick smoke and very comfortable when clenched.

These are my favourites, both just 4’’ the bottom one is a Rattray such good quality they are both 9mm filter pipes.

These 'Outdoor' pipes from Peterson are alright, even though the stems too narrow. My favourite pocket pipe is a little Zulu from Saint Claude but I haven't got a photo of that one.

err...would this be overkill? or underkill...
It's a 'thrifco briar' and seems to be well made for what it is...

lots of suggestions, thank you!

Late to the party (& nearly impossible to get a good photo of the drilling), but I figure thos would probably fit in your pocket.

I really like little pipes, they're great for using up odds & sods & for a slightly quicker smoke.

I have a Missouri Meershaum Little Devil Cutty as an edc knock around pipe. My nicer pocket pipe is this little Foundation by Musico billiard. (a huge plus is that it has a flattened shank on the bottom and it's a sitter!)

• Length: 4.44 in./112.78 mm.
• Weight: 1.04 oz./29.48 g.
• Bowl Height: 1.76 in./44.70 mm.
• Chamber Depth: 1.48 in./37.59 mm.
• Chamber Diameter: 0.76 in./19.30 mm.
• Outside Diameter: 1.25 in./31.75 mm.

musico makes a very nice pipe. I have a short blasted apple with a substantial silver band that is a good pocket pipe. I also was sort of surprised recently by how nice the Peterson short pipes are. I now have three: billiard, bulldog and bent bulldog Sort of odd drilling on the 80s bent bulldog, but they all smoke very well (after I removed the bowl coating). Nice silver band as well.

A few years back I found this on a website that restored and sold estate pipes, sadly now gone. (Image from an old Kaywoodie catalog.)

It's a bit hard to tell from this image, but the bowl is a circle flattened into an oval, about half the width of a circular bowl. It smokes great and has nice grain. Manufactured by Kaywoodie from 1935-1937 and again from 1952-1960. Mine is almost certainly from the latter period.
Last month I bought this from an antique store for $10. (Corncob pipe not included.) I haven't field-tested it yet, but I think it will work out well.

Looks like it could double as a cane head.
