GStar 3.5" Classic Small Royal Tobacco Pipe, perfect for enjoying tobacco or for props

I haven't used it, yet, so I can't give it 5 stars. From what I can tell it's a pretty small, very durable pipe. I can't tell what it's made of, but the bowl is a type of metal. It's got 3 holes in the bowl, I plan on making some modifications, but it's good to go out of the box. Review: I've upgraded my rate. I've used it, now, and I'm pretty impressed. It hits quite hard, quite possibly a tiny bit softer than when you get to the end of a blunt/joint, tobacco users, disregard that, it'll hit fine, although you're not supposed to smoke tobacco from a metal bowl. It did the trick and it did it very well, only thing that would be better is how quickly it will clog. Although it hasn't clogged on me, I've let a friend use it a couple times and I've used it and it looks like it needs to be thoroughly cleaned or it'll clog, soon. I have not subjected it to water and salt, so I'm not sure if the red will come off or fade the pipe. Overall, it's definitely worth the $5 investment, even if it's used only a few times.

As this pipe sits at the moment it's a 5 star pipe. As they send it out it's airflow is very restricted. It's the stem that is functional for others but as for me and Mary we didn't want that little guy in there. The mouthpiece was hard to take off even with pliers but the stem removal process wasn't that painful. I also expanded the bowl screen holes and then set a https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CBSB7Z0/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 screen in there. As far as the pipe's posture and feel is concerned. It's very short so seeing the burn as it's lit or during a burn isn't very comfortable. The pipe does feel good in my hand. It's almost like a worry stone without the worry. After the VERY deep bowl(circumference is a couple millimeters larger than a penny's) the draw is just about perfect. It feels a little restrictive just testing it out but during the real world use it's very good. You can get some huge rips and considering the depth and width of the bowl you could burn through your smokeable media pretty quick. It's relatively gigantic bowl is one things I noticed right away as I started to load it after the media was put through the grinder. Apart from the couple hair splitters it's really the best bowl I've come across in quite some time. Small pipe but it offers big rips or small and is easily tucked away when not in use. If it's just sat down it will wobble a bit and then right itself so I like that aspect. Does the bowl get hot after a session with a few people? Not even close. After a few days use the pipe has gotten better. Most noticeably the screen fits better now that the edges of the screen have something to grab on to. It's pretty easy to take too big of a hit and start a coughing fit if you want to burn through the bowl too quick. Just letting the flame touch the edge of the bowl and just falling over the edge lets the bowl burn right to left in a more controlled state which doesn't burn as much media as a circle burn would. It definitely can handle the heat without deforming or discoloring. The bowl itself can be pretty bleeping toasty but the surrounding material doesn't melt or blister or discolor at all. Whatever they used for the body of the pipe they did right by it. I thought it might get dirty fast but with the 3 hole bowl and a screen it doesn't offer any Scooby Snacks nor have I NEEDED to clean it. Granted it has been less than a week but it's not something that will need to be done so often that having the pipe becomes a chore. The bowl can be extracted and it's best to gently do that immediately following a session. The interior of the pipe has a little stem sticking up, almost like a volcano. Instead of the resin having a free ride out of the pipe it will instead pool until cleaning. A weekly cleaning will probably be more than enough.

The pipe is entirely constructed of metal. I believe the body is constructed of a different metal than the bowl piece. The body is coated in some type of enamel material to give it the wood like appearance. There are two plastic ash guards - one that attaches to the plastic mouth piece and another that is in the body of the pipe below the bowl. Beware that if you purchase to consume cannabis (I bought it to be used as a hemp pipe that never has any thc smoked through it) the airflow is extremely restricted as this is a true tobacco pipe. When the pipe arrives it is only suitable for MtL hits. I like direct lung draws so I used a drill bit to drill out the ash guard that is inside the body of the pipe. It still catches the ash now but it also allows me to take large direct lung draws. The bowl can hold approx 2 grams of material suitable for long solo sessions or group sessions with friends. It is small, discreet, and light. It does however have enough weight to not feel cheap in the hand. Has a nice traditional pipe grip to it. Functions just like any glass spoon pipe of similar proportions albeit this pipe has no carb hole. Over time the metal that constructs the bowl piece tarnishes however this is no issue for me. This makes a perfect semi disposable pipe for those who work labor intensive jobs or live active lifestyles. Won’t break on you when you need it most, functions absolutely fine, yet is so cheap you could afford to throw it away and buy a new one every few uses. For the price this is an excellent buy for anyone who needs a small pocketable travel/work pipe, a cheap backup pipe to have laying around, a disposable pipe for a one time travel event, or even a daily driver for those lacking the fortune required to smoke a more expensive option.

I bought this after getting fed up with myself for continuously breaking my glass pieces. It works. I’ve owned it and been using it exclusively for my consumption for a while now. I do have an issue with this product. It clogs ridiculously easy and fast. Clogs entirely- like no air getting through, unusable. There have been times I’ve disassembled it and soaked it in cleaner, scrubbed it back to brand new status and then had to do it all again within a week or so. I’ve owned glass pieces that I’ve never cleaned and still was able to smoke out of them. I would say there’s no reason for u to purchase this and have to deal with the frustration, unless you, like me are not capable of handling glass

I wasn't sure what to expect since I've only used little all wooden pipes before. And I was getting tired of cleaning/changing screens all the time and the bowl was small. So I wanted a bigger bowl and something easier to clean, this pipe definitely fits my needs. The bowl is at least an inch diameter with a metal insert basket for the smokables. 3 holes in the basket seems like it might not be enough but it tokes quite easily. Bowl is really a good size, inside diameter of the metal basket is 7/8" and 7/8" deep. Overall I am quite pleased with this pipe. For the price it does not seem to be a cheap pos. But does seem to be a quite nice little product.

Do NOT buy this pipe! It's junk! It has a thin metal bowl liner that has three tiny holes at the bottom. The holes are off center and too small for a pipe cleaner to fit through. I had to pry the metal liner out of the bowl, damaging the bowl and the liner, only to find that there is a metal stud at the bottom of the bowl (under the metal liner) so you HAVE to use the liner. AAARRRGGGHHH! I removed the mouthpiece and there's another metal fitting with tiny holes (again, too small for a pipe cleaner) in the mouthpiece where it attaches to the stem,(that cracked when I tried to remove the fitting). Double AAARRRGGGHHH!! There's simply no way to clean this thing using a pipe cleaner. Which makes me mad because the pipe cleaners were bundled with the pipe. Long story short, this pipe was a total loss and now resides in pieces at the bottom of my trashcan!

My pipe came in two days. It looks and feels very good. If you really smoke pipe tobacco in it, I imagine the bowl could get very warm, but not with herbs. The stem was snug perfectly. The silver bullet did not cause any air flow problems, but if it did or got plugged with resin, you can just twist and pull stem out and the bullet comes out easily. The pipe is not wood but probably high impact shiny plastic. The inner bowl is metal. The stem is like on any tobacco pipe. Also inner metal bowl has three holes that would be considered big for powder or shake. I have not received my 3/4" screens from Amazon yet, so I don't know if they would fit. I imagine they would at least help with shake or powder( probably not powder ) . The price was extremely good for what I got. To the people who read the bad reviews: those people had bad luck!

Great pipe for the price! Like most here, I removed the silver-bullet filter thingy from inside the stem for a better draw. I also enlarged the holes in the bottom of the metal bowl for smoother airflow. Now it smokes like a dream! Be advised, 3/4" pipe screens are too small and wont stay seated in the bowl, but I had more success with a much larger screen. You also need to put a large amount of "tobacco" in the bowl for a good smoke, because the bowl is so deep. Personally, i think this a great pipe if you just want to pack a big bowl to smoke with friends, but it's not as great if you are just smoking by yourself, because the leaf continues to burn and is wasted unless you put the "tobacco" out after each hit. But overall, totally worth the cheap price I paid for it! Very classy looking pipe.
