It’s clearance time. We’re doing a little house cleaning.
Now that the worst of summer is, we hope, behind us and fall is coming up fast we decided to clean house a bit to make room for new inventory. For the rest of the month, we are having a clearance sale. You can find over a dozen high-quality briar pipes at huge discounts. Pipes […]
A word about add-ons on the product pages
We have tried to make it easier to order extra stuff right on the product page. If you want pipe cleaners with your pipe, you can click an add-on when you order the pipe. You won’t have to search for a pipe tool or pipe cleaners elsewhere on the site. Also, when you buy add-ons […]

It’s much harder for Ken to be out in public the other 364 days of the year. Anyway, this weekend we’re having out annual […]
Website changes coming

Lately we’ve noticed some odd cart behavior when the browser is something other than Firefox. In Microsoft Edge and in Chrome when you click Proceed to […]
