Hand Pipes

Like those fine wooden tobacco pipes you'd see Sherlock Holmes or Gandalf smoking, hand pipes are used to smoke dry herbs burned directly from the bowl. However, most hand pipes these days aren't as long or bulky. Instead, they're slim, minimal, and discreet, making them suitable for use wherever you are.

Hand pipes are usually made up of these components:

• Bowl — Here's where you pack your herbs and light them up.
• Carb hole — Short for 'carburetor,' this is a small hole in the side of the bowl that lets you control the airflow in your glass pipe.
• Stem — The smoke from your burnt herbs passes through here.
• Mouthpiece — You know, the part where your mouth goes and where you get to draw in the uplifting smoke from your perfectly burnt botanicals.

Simply put, borosilicate glass chillums are a modern twist on the classic, uncomplicated pipes many still smoke today. Because they're made of glass, they come with a bunch of benefits that make every smoking session smoother and more enjoyable.

Hand pipes are a great choice to use for any dry-smoking experience. We share a few key advantages below:

Offers More Ease of Use

Modern hand pipes are designed to be compact and lightweight, making them easy to take with you wherever you're going. Plus, being made of glass also makes them easier to clean. With glass smoking pipes, you can trust that every smoke session will be just as pure as the last.

Features a Minimal Yet Slick Aesthetic Appeal

Our hand pipes also have a style. MJ Arsenal designs glass hand pipes with a modern, minimalistic look that would fit just about anyone's personal tastes. Whether you want a Sherlock, bubbler, or spoon pipe, we have everything you need.

Gives You Versatile Options to Choose

Another benefit of hand pipes is that they are versatile. On top of stuffing dry herbs into the glass bowl, you can also add a dab of your desired wax concentrates. All it takes is partially packing your bowl with some dry herbs and then adding the amount of dab that strikes your smoking pleasure.

The steps it takes to smoke flowers from a glass pipe are fairly simple. Simply follow these steps for an enjoyable glass pipe smoke:

• Pack Your Bowl — Take your herb or flower and pack your glass pipe's bowl. Tamp it down so there are no air pockets, but not too tightly to prevent it from properly burning.
• Heat Your Herb — Use your torch or lighter and place its flame over your bowl. Be careful not to burn yourself from the heat of the bowl. Very quickly, smoke will fill the stem, ready for you to inhale.
• Press the Carb Hole — This next step is optional but helps you make stronger pulls with your glass pipe: Press your thumb over the carb hole on the side of the bowl when you inhale and release it once you're done.
• Puff, Puff, Done — With lips to the mouthpiece, you simply inhale the smoke coming from the stem. If you notice the herb in the bowl has stopped burning, you'll have to spark it again to produce more smoke.

Once it's done, clean out any residue in the bowl and stem so it's ready for your next session.

You can rinse your glass pipe in water for a few minutes after scooping out the leftover herb from the bowl. For a more thorough cleaning, here's what you should do:

• Put your pipe in a resealable plastic bag with isopropyl alcohol or white vinegar. The liquid should cover the entire pipe.
• Add salt or baking soda to help clean out the tough spots inside the pipe.
• Shake the bag for a few minutes.
• If it's especially dirty, leave it to soak for 12 hours.
• Remove the pipe from the bag and place it in warm water. Remove any and all loose buildup.
• For difficult debris, carefully scrape them off with a Q-tip or toothpick.
• Give your hand pipe another good rinse.
• Finally, leave it on a soft towel so it can safely dry.

After this simple, easy process, you'll have a pristine, good-as-new hand pipe ready for your next smoke session.

There are a bunch of different types of glass hand pipes for you to choose from. They all offer a straightforward smoke, but some might include a filtration element. Here are some of the main kinds of hand pipes you'll find in our online shop:

• Spoon Pipes — These hand pipes are basic but classic for smoking herbs. They get their name from their shape, which appears more like a tubular spoon.
• Sherlock Pipes — An impressive twist on a glass weed pipe, the Sherlock hand pipe is named after the curved tobacco pipe used by the famous fictional detective Sherlock Holmes. Elegant, refined, and sure to take your smoking session to new heights, a Sherlock pipe is a good choice for many.
• One-Hitters/Chillum Pipes — One-hitters are slim, discreet hand pipes made for a single hit whenever and wherever - similar to the Indian Chillum, a traditional pipe smoked by Hindu mystics on their travels to find enlightenment.
• Bubblers — A cross between water pipes and hand pipes, bubblers filter smoke through a small water chamber, just like a bong but in a more compact package.

Above are your pipes of choice, but the bigger question is where you can find the best ones. No need to worry, though. Just browse MJ Arsenal's selection of finely crafted pipes, and you'll find out soon enough.

Yes, you can use your glass pipe to smoke concentrates. However, it requires using some dry herbs to help provide a base to heat them properly. Simply pack half your bowl with dry herbs and the other with your preferred amount of wax concentrate. Then, spark it up and enjoy!

Hand pipes and water pipes offer very different smoking experiences due to just a few key differences. Here's a detailed comparison:

• Filtration: When using a glass hand pipe, the smoke travels directly from the bowl to your mouth without passing through water. This means the smoke remains unfiltered and can be harsher on the throat and lungs, especially if the herb is burned too hot. The lack of water also means there is minimal cooling of the smoke. On the other hand, water pipes feature a water chamber that filters and cools the smoke before inhalation. The smoke is forced to pass through the water, which helps remove some impurities and reduces the overall harshness. As a result, water pipes tend to provide smoother hits compared to glass pipes.
• Smoke Density: The smoke produced from a glass pipe is usually denser and more concentrated because it doesn't pass through water, allowing for a stronger flavor profile. Water pipes produce less dense smoke due to water filtration, which can result in a milder taste and a more comfortable smoking experience for some users.
• Concentration: Glass pipes allow users to take smaller, more controlled hits, which can be ideal for microdosing or conserving herbs. Water pipes facilitate larger hits due to their water filtration, allowing users to inhale larger amounts of smoke in a single breath. However, filtration may affect the concentration of their hit to some degree.
• Overall: The glass pipe and water pipe each offer their own experiences, plus distinct advantages for different types of smokers. The on-the-go aficionado will surely prefer the directness of a glass pipe, while the recreational cloud-maker will enjoy a relaxing puff from their water pipe at home.
