The 5.5-Inch Sandblast Tribal Shark Glass Hand Pipe is a compact spoon pipe built for smokers who want portability without sacrificing personality. At 5.5 inches, it's pocket-friendly and easy to handle, with a sculpted shark design and tribal sandblast details that give it actual character. Available in multiple colors, so you can pick one that fits your vibe.
Key Benefits
- Compact enough for daily carry — 5.5 inches fits in a jacket pocket or small bag without bulk
- Decent-sized bowl for solo sessions — not massive, but enough to pack a solid personal bowl without constant reloading
- Sandblast texture gives you grip — the tribal pattern isn't just for looks; it helps you keep hold when things get slippery
- Sculpted shark adds character — three-dimensional detail makes it more interesting than flat glass spoons
- Glass is easy to clean — soak in isopropyl alcohol, rinse, and you're back to clear hits
Best For
This pipe works for anyone who smokes solo or with one other person and wants something they can toss in a bag without worrying about size. Good for couch sessions, outdoor smoke spots, or keeping in your car for spontaneous detours. If you like pipes with some visual flair but don't want to drop serious cash, this hits the sweet spot.
How to Use It
Pack the bowl with ground flower, leaving a little room at the top so airflow doesn't get blocked. Cover the carb hole on the side with your thumb, light the bowl, and pull gently to fill the chamber with smoke. Release the carb and inhale to clear it. The sandblast texture gives you something to grip, which helps when you're passing it around or using it one-handed.
Because it's glass, let it cool between hits if you're chain-smoking. The bowl can get hot, and nobody wants to burn their fingers mid-session.
Cleaning and Care
Glass pipes get resin buildup fast. Let it cool, then soak in isopropyl alcohol for 15-30 minutes. Use a pipe cleaner or cotton swab to scrub out stubborn spots, rinse with warm water, and dry before reuse. The sandblast texture can trap a bit more residue than smooth glass, so clean it regularly if you want it to stay looking sharp.

FAQs
How big is the bowl on this pipe?
It's a standard spoon bowl, good for one or two people per pack. Not huge, but decent for solo sessions.
Is the shark design just painted on, or is it actually sculpted?
It's sculpted glass, so it has dimension. The shark isn't just a flat decal—it's part of the pipe's shape.
Does the sandblast texture make it harder to clean?
A little. The texture can trap resin in the grooves, but a good soak in isopropyl alcohol and a pipe cleaner will get it clean. Just takes an extra minute compared to smooth glass.
Can I use this for concentrates or wax?
No. This is a flower pipe. If you're dabbing, you need a dab rig or nectar collector.
How durable is it?
It's glass, so it'll break if you drop it on a hard surface. The compact size makes it less likely to get knocked over, but treat it like any other glass piece. Don't toss it loose in a bag without padding.
Will the color fade over time?
The sandblast tribal pattern and shark sculpt are baked into the glass, so they won't wear off with cleaning. Color availability varies, but once you have one, it stays.
Is this good for travel?
Yeah, if you're careful. At 5.5 inches, it fits in most bags or pockets. Just wrap it in something soft or use a padded pipe case so it doesn't crack during transport.
