What does Süka pipe mean? Nothing to North Americans, but many things to people who speak languages other than English. In Russian, suka means 'bitch' and it's definitely a pejorative term. In Japanese, "suka" means a feeling of refreshment. Not a bad meaning. At 7Pipe, each product, when still in stealth mode, goes by a project name. Rarely does the project name also become the product name. It happened with the "Twisty". But not with our UFO project.

Since 7Pipe specializes in pocket smoking pipes, our customers buy our products for use while out and about. And the last thing you want to do while out and about is to fiddle with loading and reloading your pipe constantly. For this reason, a lot of the innovation behind 7Pipe's creations is involved with how to load and reload your pipe in a quick, efficient, and convenient way.

I had no idea what functionality it would have or how it would work. Eventually, I added the crucial new functionality to the Süka pipe, the trackball. The trackball can be seen on computer mice, and I borrowed this concept for a pipe. Initially, I had designed a grinder...

Reload with a flip of the wrist. Holds up to 4 grams of ground material in this pipe. Our Suka pipe is available online only at 7Pipe.com and at select smoke shops around the country.
