"Calabash" Fumed Glass Sherlock is proof a hand pipe doesn't need to be complicated to be excellent.

What It Is

An authentic LA Pipes hand pipe — borosilicate glass. The "Calabash" is yet another classic pipe shape, more commonly known as the Sherlock. The pipe sits flat on a table and is fumed with pure silver making it color-changing. This pipe has been in our stable for decades. It's a classic Sherlock shape that's perfectly executed. You will not be disappointed with this reliable daily driver. Approximately 4.

Why You'll Love It

  • Easy to clean: a zip-bag iso soak brings it back to day one.
  • Comfortable in hand: shaped for grip, balance and an easy draw.
  • Authentic brand: the real product from the brand on the listing — not a re-label.
  • Built for daily use: thick walls where it counts, made to survive real life.

How To Use It

Pack the bowl loosely, cover the carb while lighting, release to clear. A weekly zip-bag soak in iso and salt keeps the draw open and the taste clean.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use a hand pipe?
Pack the bowl loosely with ground material, cover the carb hole (the small hole on the side) while lighting, then release it as you inhale to clear the chamber. A loose pack burns more evenly and keeps the draw open.
How do I clean a glass hand pipe?
Seal the pipe in a zip bag with 91%+ isopropyl alcohol and a spoonful of coarse salt, shake well, let it soak 30 minutes, then rinse with warm water. For daily smokers, a weekly clean keeps flavor fresh and airflow open.
Should I use a screen in my pipe?
Screens keep ash and small bits from pulling through into your mouth. Glass daisy screens are the cleanest-tasting option; brass and stainless screens are cheap and cut to fit any bowl. Many spoon pipes work fine without one if you pack properly.
What's the difference between a spoon, a sherlock, and a steamroller?
A spoon is the compact all-rounder. A sherlock's curved neck cools smoke slightly and sits nicely in hand. A steamroller has an open end that acts as a giant carb, delivering fast, unfiltered hits with maximum airflow — great for experienced smokers.
Are silicone pipes safe to smoke from?
Quality silicone pipes are made from food-grade, heat-tolerant silicone that never contacts the flame directly — the bowl itself is glass or metal. They're virtually indestructible and dishwasher-safe, which makes them the go-to travel and outdoor piece.
