Steel and build
The head starts as layered steels forge-welded into Damascus. We grind, shape, and finish the profile, then etch the surface to bring out the pattern. The rosewood handle adds strength and a warm, premium look. The ringed carving improves hand placement during handling and display.
Smoking pipe function
This design includes a pipe-style bowl at the handle end and a drilled channel for airflow. You load tobacco in the bowl, light it, and draw through the handle opening. Keep the channel dry and clean for a smooth draw and better flavor.
