I was passing my pipe the other day and someone asked me snarkily "Why do you like wooden pipes?" Well... Its so tiny I can put it in my change pocket, if I drop it it won't break, I can store extra weed in the folding compartment, and its so portable and discreet that I can confidently move about town and BRING YOU WEED TO SMOKE!! Listen, I love glass stuff too, but people really hate on wooden pipes and I like 'em. Who's with me?!
I mean, wooden pipes are definitely better than metal pipes. So if you want a pipe for traveling reasons, go with wooden.
