Best For
This pipe works for flower smokers who need something portable and low-profile. If you're commuting, hiking, or just don't want a full rig at your friend's place, this size hits the sweet spot. Also solid for people who are new to glass pipes and want to start with something inexpensive and easy to use. The 4-inch length keeps it discreet without making you feel like you're smoking out of a novelty keychain.
How to Use It
Pack the bowl with ground flower — don't overstuff it or you'll block airflow. Cover the carb hole on the side with your thumb, light the bowl, and draw gently to get the cherry going. Once it's lit, release the carb to clear the chamber. The short length means the smoke doesn't have as much space to cool, so take smaller hits if you're sensitive to heat. After a few sessions, you'll notice resin building up inside. Let the pipe cool completely, then soak it in isopropyl alcohol for 20-30 minutes. Rinse with warm water and let it dry before your next use. For quick cleans between soaks, use a pipe cleaner or cotton swab dipped in alcohol to scrub out the bowl and stem.

Limitations & Compatibility
Glass pipes of this size are fragile. Drop it on tile or concrete and you're shopping for a new one. The 4-inch length is great for portability but means less smoke cooling compared to longer pipes, so hits can feel harsher. The bowl size is standard for flower but won't handle large packing jobs — you'll be reloading more often during group sessions. Decal wraps are cosmetic only and won't prevent breakage, though they do add a tiny bit of grip. Designs vary based on availability, so you might not get your first choice if stock is rotating.
FAQ
What's the bowl size like?
Standard flower bowl — holds enough for a few hits but not a whole group session. You'll reload more often than you would with a larger pipe, but that's the tradeoff for the compact size.
Will the decal come off?
Decals can fade or peel over time, especially if you're cleaning aggressively or using harsh solvents. Isopropyl alcohol is fine, but avoid scrubbing the wrap directly with abrasive materials. The wrap is cosmetic, so if it wears off, the pipe still functions just fine.
Can I travel with this?
At 4 inches, it fits in most pockets or small bags. Just make sure it's clean if you're traveling anywhere that searches bags — residue is what gets people in trouble, not the pipe itself. Also, wrap it in something soft to prevent breakage.
Is it harsh to smoke from?
Shorter pipes like this don't cool smoke as much as longer pieces, so yes, it can be harsher than a 6-inch pipe or a bubbler. If you're sensitive to heat, take smaller hits and don't corner the entire bowl at once. Some people find the trade-off worth it for the portability.
How often do I need to clean it?
Depends on how much you use it. Daily smokers will want to clean it once a week to keep airflow clear and prevent resin buildup from affecting taste. If you only use it occasionally, you can stretch it to every few weeks. Let it soak in isopropyl alcohol, rinse, and dry before reuse.
What if I want a specific wrap design?
Designs vary based on current stock, so availability changes. If you're ordering online, you might not get to choose the exact wrap. If you're buying in person or can contact the shop, ask what's in stock before ordering.
Is this pipe good for beginners?
Yes. It's straightforward — bowl, carb, mouthpiece — and priced low enough that if you break it or decide glass isn't for you, you're not out much money. The compact size also makes it less intimidating than larger pieces. Just be gentle with it and clean it regularly, and you'll get plenty of use out of it.
