Hand Made Pipes Start to Finish

From stem to stain each pipe is made with care and with extreme focus on the details.

Identifying the right briar

I pick from my large selection of briars and mark a general shape I'm looking to produce.

Drilling out the Briar

The necessary parts of the pipe with precision to ensure a smooth smoking pipe.

Sanding

Next we start sanding and sand down the pipe to get the correct shape we're looking for.

Hand File Stems

Stems are I hand cut and filed down to fit the briar perfectly.

Stamped with my seal of approval.

Every Nate King pipe receives a hand pressed stamp with my logo on it that represents the highest quality pipe.

I wouldn’t put my name on the pipe otherwise.  If you’d like to learn more about  my process click the story link below. 

What's on the Bench

Many of my pipes are sold before they hit my website here on Instagram. Take a look at what I’ve been working on below.
