For our Proto Rocket, Phil took the best elements of his iconic Classic, and made some quality functional and aesthetic improvements. Its bowl is beautifully round and holds a larger smoking capacity. The swiveling top lid is shaped into a graceful crescent that cleverly makes it also function as a roach clip. The bottom tar trap has been transformed from a plug that pops out into a bottom lid that swivels like the top lid, making it super easy to clean. The collar around the Stash Pod, that holds the Poker in place, is completely hand-shaped and knurled for improved function, feel, and appearance. Finally, the finished Rocket gets brushed for a lustrous finish all over. No wonder it has become Phil’s personal pipe of choice when he smokes.

Care Instructions
Care Instructions
To care for a Proto Pipe, regular maintenance is essential for longevity and smooth performance. Depending on usage, occasional spot cleaning or a thorough weekly cleaning will help prevent excessive buildup. Cleaning while the resin is still soft is much easier than waiting for it to harden. Use a pipe cleaner, isopropyl alcohol, and Q-tips to remove residue from the bowl, chamber, and mouthpiece. Disassemble the removable components, soak them in rubbing alcohol, and wipe out the tubes and bowl for a deeper clean. After cleaning, thoroughly rinse all parts with hot water to remove any remaining residue. Keeping your Proto Pipe well-maintained not only enhances performance but also preserves its classic look and function.
I got my Rocket pipe two weeks ago and love it. I live in Maryland and had a friend in High School that came from CA and brought this with him. I loved it back then and have not seen it again until last year. I have used it about 10 times until I had to give to a friend for Christmas. This might be the best travel pipe you will ever use. love the compartment to put bud in. The hit you get is very smooth. Loved it so much I bought one for my friend for Christmas. The problem is that it did not come in time for Christmas. When he smoked out of it, he said I will take this one and you get the one that is coming. So, at this time I don't have a pipe. I can't wait to get it. The pipe is cool as hell.
The 'Rocket' arrived today safe and sound. The first thing you notice is heft and after closer examination the craftsmanship. I have broken in the pipe already. It has a nice draw. The rounded bowl gets warm, but hasn't gotten hot. Everything fits together nicely. The first and only time I used one was at the John Mayall concert in Bithlo, FL. The guy next to fired it up and we passed it back and forth. Anyway, the design made an impression and I never forgot it. Fast forward 54 years, I decided to get one. I also like that its made in the U.S.A.!
I owned a original Proto Pipe for years when I was younger and lost it.The Rocket is everything that was and more with its easy cleaning features.Its my go to piece hands down.
I don't want to be knocking the product, it's a solid proto pipe with an interesting design. But, its bowl is TINY y'all. If you want a bigger bowl than the trad proto, this ain't it.
This is the last pipe I’m ever gonna buy! I have been smoking for 40 years and was always disappointed with glass or metal pipes I’ve bought through the years. This is the 1st absolutely high quality pipe I’ve EVER bought!!!! The only pipe I might buy in the future will definitely be another one of these pipes. Once I find something I really like I usually buy 2 of them just in case one breaks. That way you still have the 2nd pipe to use still while you get the 1st one fixed. I do the same thing with my Harley Davidson riding problem/addiction. If the 1st Harley I have breaks down I have the 2nd Harley to ride while I fix the 1st Harley. So I’ve been smoking out of my Rocket pipe for just about a year now and the more I use this pipe the more I like it!!!! It’s unbelievable how nice this pipe is!!!! Thank you Proto Pipe for finally ending my constant search for a quality pipe. Them days are over now!
