CLASSIC SMOKING
It's time to get back to our roots and get into an old classic, and no we don't mean our mother...
Hand pipes, sometimes known as spoons, Sherlocks, one-hitters or bubblers depending on their style are one of the oldest ways to smoke legal herbs or tobacco.
Unlike the average water pipe or bong, glass pipes do not require water to function, all you need is a decent pair of lungs and a good olé fashion lighter, may we suggest some Clippers? To light your herbs and you’re all set.
Hand pipes are typically smaller and more portable than some other smoking options, like hookahs and bongs so they fit easily in the palm of your hand. "That's probably why they are called Hand Pipes eh?" This makes smoking on the go a breeze as you can conceal it in your pocket, purse or backpack.
If you're in the market we highly recommend, Erbanna, Skunk or Stash Logix depending on your preference.
This isn't to say that you should only buy a hand pipe if you are a traveler/adventurer always on the move. Many People enjoy the strong hit you can get from using a hand pipe for traditional smoking as a way to kick back on the couch or designated hooting chair and wind down after a stressful day.
