Pipe-Smoking

A pipe lighter is a lighter designed specifically for lighting tobacco pipes. It differs from a cigarette lighter in that it produces a flame that is drawn downwards into the bowl of the pipe, rather than upwards. This is achieved through a combination of the angle of the flame and the way the lighter is held.

There are two main types of pipe lighters: those that use butane fuel and those that use liquid fuel.

I smoke pipes. I don’t encourage you to do so as well, mind you - smoking a pipe is still smoking and is not good for your health. However, if you are interested in history of pipe smoking and tobacco - read on.

Please note: You must be 18 or older to buy pipe tobacco and smoke a pipe.
