My apologies all for not introducing myself but new to this and missed a few steps along the way. I love smoking my pipes and recently found this little clay one and it is absolutely fantastic but unfortunately, they are not very durable so I would like one made from briar so I can keep in my coverall pocket while i am at work. If anyone knows, where I could find one, please let me know or if there is a pipe maker that would be able to do this for me, I would greatly appreciate this. I just like the size of the bowl and the length and how nice it fits in my top pocket. The bowl is perfect as lots of times I do not have the time for a regular size smoke.

I would recommend a Peterson Belge or Belgique is actually smaller.

The easiest replacement would be a Missouri Meerschaum Short Stop. But you asked for briar. Or a Pony Express/Tom Sawyer

The Short Stop was designed to be as short a smoke as a cigarette

Buy a couple cobs and you can have one at home, in the car and at work. And they last forever.

You might want to consider a Ropp Belge:

A few from the Etudiant line from Ropp might fit the bill.

Smokingpipes.com has a good selection under Rossi. I think it’s the Piccolo. They have pretty close to that shape.
