Nording Eriksen Pipes
| Brand: | Nording |
Eriksen pipes are the newest innovation from the brilliant mind of Erik Nording and feature a removable bowl that allows you to add Keystones into the base. The Keystones will absorb excess moisture for a cool, dry smoke. Each pipe is lightweight with a nice capacity bowl. Try one today and see the difference.
Please note: The factory has changed the design of the bowl for the Eriksen Keystone Egg #1. It no longer has the brown band on the bowl as pictured. A new picture will be coming to replace what's currently on the page.

Good, Dry Smoke
Aug 07, 2023
Bought one of these for a friend and decided to order one for myself. As advertised, the smoke is dry with no gurgle- smokes well. I think I've had 5 smokes with the same clay pebbles and could probably do a couple more before changing. Note that volume is rather small compared to my main pipe (a Petersen). Can't go wrong for the price.

Not a bad starter pipe
Mar 14, 2023
I bought 2 of these to try out and get my wife into pipe tobacco. You really don't have to worry about burning your tongue if you're a beginner and are enjoying aromatics. They clean up pretty easy. For the price, it's tough to find a good briar if that's what your into. I like to have one on hand if I have a new pipe smoker with me.

Nording Eriksen Keystone impressions
Aug 06, 2022
This is a very nice pipe.
I'm not sure as of yet about the "Keystone" feature, but the pipe does smoke well.
I experienced a smooth draw with only 2 relights. The tobacco (Peterson E.M.P.) smoked cleanly and completely to ash and no dottle to speak of.
For the money I highly recommend this Nording.

Nording Erickson Keystone Egg a great everyday pipe
Jul 15, 2022
This is a sturdy, well designed, every day pipe. I drive a rig and can’t be super careful but this pipe gets loaded every day and takes the abuse of bouncing around in the cab. Smokes to ash and the smoke is dry, dry, dry due to is special chamber. I get 2 or 3 smokes before the rocks need changed.

Fabulous! And I mean it.
Mar 04, 2022
Can't help it, I been smoking these pipes for about a year. I now added two more to my collection. They smoke wonderfully. Dry as a bone and cool all the way down. NO dottle. Easy to clean and nothing to really maintain. I put a few stones in the bottom and go for 5-6 bowls before replacing them. And, because the chamber stays dry, I can smoke bowl after bowl without waiting for the bowl to dry out.
I used to start newbies off on cobs, but now I'll recommend these.
I have only one request, that they make a half-bend or full bend version.

So good I bought a third!
Oct 23, 2021
I now have 3 of these and have been smoking them for several months now. I like them a lot (see my other reviews), they are extremely easy to clean, once I use up the stones in the small tin I refill the tin from the bag (enough stones to last for years). You can clean out the bottom of the pipe with a Q-Tip, the stem with a pipe cleaner, you can even clean it in soap and water. The bottom does not get hot. The bowl are good briar and do NOT burn as one reviewer said. My only wish is that the bowls were a little larger but that does not stop me from smoking them. The plastic bottom is strong and does not absorb the condensed moisture like briar does.

Let's face facts...this is NOT a $200 pipe.
But, for the price, it is a VERY good pipe!
I love the cool, dry smoke it provides and when you're done with a bowl, there is literally nothing but white ash left. No more wasted tobacco!
The only negative I could find is that the molded plastic stem/lower bowl part had some pretty sharp mold marks left behind, but nothing a little fast work with some 800-grit sandpaper fixed that in minutes.
I plan to buy another of these very soon.

A great pipe...
May 05, 2021
I got this to be a nice survivable for when I travel. This has quickly become my favorite smoke. It doesn't matter what I smoke in it or the style (ribbon, cake, rope, &c.) it smokes cool and even the whole way to the bottom. With other "filter" pipes I've gotten in the past the very first thing I do is remove the filter and forget them. In this case the "filter" works to cool the smoke. Tobacco's I've smoked before out of much more expensive "systems" and would still produce tongue bite after a few minutes smoke smooth and cool. I love this pipe and I've already ordered a couple more so I have a good rotations. For new smokers who may have gotten in with a cob or "cheap" briar I'd absolutely recommend looking at getting one (or three) of these.

Smokes dry to the bottom of the bowl. Not a novelty but a excellent pipe, I was concerned about cleaning but its so easy. I remove the bowl, ditch the filter media and run soapy water thru the stem. One pipe cleaner to dry and its done. I have five so far, all different in bowl and black stem. I'm waiting for the orange to be back in stock.

Eriksen Blue, my new EDC
Apr 08, 2021
I was sceptical but gave the blue Erikson a shot because the price was reasonable. It's now among my favorite pipes. It's in my daily rotation of everywhere pipes. My opinion is the same as many who have posted already. It's light and durable. It smokes beautifully. Easy to clean. I detected the slightest chemical taste the first couple bowls but that is gone now and it smokes sweet and clean. Nording produces quality affordable products and has become among my favorite brands and I will be ordering several more Eriksen pipes. It's worth mentioning that I also love the Keystones that they included with the pipe, I use them in my others as well. I highly recommend purchasing the Nording Eriksen pipe system.

Great smoke! I now have to resist buying more of these wonderful pipes!
Mar 16, 2021
This is my second Eriksen, my review on the first one is below. The first bowl with this pipe gave me a perfect smoke! Full taste, cool and dry, no tongue bite. No plastic taste, so I think some bowls are contaminated with varnish and this is where that smell comes from reported in some reviews. I smoked my first pipe for a week now and the plastic smell stopped after 4 bowls. There is NO heating of the plastic bottom of the pipe as the plastic remains unmelted and shiny even after many bowls with 3 tobaccos. This pipe is easy to clean, and the plastic stem is strong and will not absorb odors from the condensation like a wood stem. A tiny amount of O-ring grease (silicone) on the O-ring (Vaseline could also be used) keeps it easy to take off and remove. The O-ring does not get hot. I change the stones after 3 or 4 bowls. Not only do the stones absorb moisture the lower part uses the Calibash effect, named after the Calibash pipe, in which smoke expanding from the hole in the bowl allows condensation and cooling. IT WORKS! And the tobacco burns evenly down to the bottom. I commend Nording for continuing to improve pipe designs. They certainly know what they are doing and make a high quality product.

Gets better with each bowl smoked.
Mar 10, 2021
The bowl is beautiful brier! It is much lighter than a traditional pipe which I like, but I also got a strange burned rubber smell. It happened the first time I used it, even before the bowl got hot to my hand. I think it was the surface of the brier in contact with the burning tobacco, not the bottom plastic construction. My wife could smell it also. It decreased with each bowl I smoked and after 5 or 6 bowls it is barely noticeable. I checked and the plastic that holds the stones shows no signs of heating at all, and I wiped it clean and examined with a magnifying glass. The plastic has sharp corners and was shiny which would not be the case if it melted or burned. The plastic is NOT melting or burning and I don’t think that part of the pipe got hot at all as the outside of the plastic stays cool during the entire smoke. The O ring shows no signs of being heated. I think the smell was in the brier itself as the odor showed up right at the beginning long before the outside of the bowl got hot. I had a brier pipe once that had no plastic other than the bit and it burned slightly at the bottom when I smoked it the first few times and I remember the taste of brier burning was very strange so maybe that is what is happening with this pipe. The inside of the bowl was a little rough when I got it and I think the surface of the wood burned slightly making the odor. But I’m liking it more with each bowl I smoke, and I am amazed at the way the tobacco burns evenly and completely all the way down. There is no sign of the brier at the bottom burning. This may become one of my favorite pipes. My current favorites are three Nordings I bought over the last 3 years. Oh, and cleaning this pipe will be very easy. Also it comes with a small tin of the stones so it will be a while before I have to buy more. For me the stones don’t have to be changed until 2 or 3 bowls have been smoked.

Contemporary classic that doesn't break the bank
Jan 28, 2021
i was hesitant about a more contemporary pipe then my other Nordings, but as soon as i saw it and used it it made sense and i was pleasantly surprised by it. This is the Nording equivalent of the English Falcon style of pipes. It is a little longer than i usually have, and it is solid construction, bit on the heavier side but pleasing to hold. I would recommend just for something different that is in a classic form

The Greatest Pipe I've Ever Smoked
Jul 07, 2020
This is the single greatest pipe I've ever smoked. I've collected and massed dozens of pipes but this is the most unique and most practical for me. This pipe offered me the greatest solution to my moisture problems, with its two-chamber, simple yet extremely practical pipe system. The smoke cools because of it, the moisture is absorbed by the stones and no taste nor flavor is lost from the tobacco. In fact, this is the coolest smoke I've ever experienced. I cant believe I'm saying this, but this pipe smokes better, smokes cooler, and smokes dryer than my Missouri Meerschaum cob pipes. I would highly recommend this pipe to newer smokers especially.
Only one small caveat, this pipe is not traditional by any means, so the pipe smoker should be amenable to change in the traditional pipe smoking sense.

21st Century pipe
Mar 04, 2020
This pipe is super light, very clencheable, nearly unbreakable, and the bowl is spacious. I bought the nuclear green one and I'm absolutely in love with it. I haven't wanted to stop smoking it in the last few days I've owned it. The mouthpiece is soft and comes off so you can clean it separately. The bowl is also removable and there is a venturi under the bowl which creates a space for the smoke to mix and cool. That's where you put the keystones. I have smoked it without the stones and one of my tobaccos left a nice little puddle in the venturi so I'm not excited for when I run out since they're out of stock here.

I don't want to gush to much for I have only smoked 3 half bowls but so far I love this pipe. it burns the tobacco down evenly, I think due to the center location of the draw hole at the base of the bowl. Futuristic looking pipe, modern and clean. Low cost. I'm buying another one for sure. And the smoking is cool with the stones. I repeat the good comments on the smoke, cool and dry. Suggestion to Nording Pipes, make a higher quality version in the future with similar design and features.

Not bad for the price as a yard pipe.
Apr 20, 2017
I have a few of these pipes for yard work and they smoke fine, have had them over a year now and do NOT have any (plastic) melting issues at all. If your melting any part of the pipe YOU are smoking way to fast. Otherwise a great pipe, but I like them for yard work as I can pack the pipe multiple times a day with no bitterness then let it rest a couple days or so.

Oct 30, 2016
These pipes are rubbish and a waste of money. The bottom of the bowl that is inserted into the part attached to the stem is made of softwood rather than briar and quickly burns up rendering the pipe useless. No replacement bowls are available. DON'T BUY THIS UNLESS YOU HAVE MONEY TO WASTE.

Love the Eriksen, it's my coolest smoker!!
Aug 08, 2016
This little inexpensive pipe is definitely my favorite. Smokes so nice and cool and the pipe itself stayes cooler than most! I've got Peterson and various other more expensive pipes and this one smokes the best. Only other pipi I liked nearly as well was a Peterson system 312, which was stolen in a burglary of my home, but comparing a $30 pipe to a $130 dollar pipe, really the Eriksen wins easily! I did buy another Peterson, but it's not nearly as good a smoker as the 312 was. My mistake, I should have gotten that one again, but went for a lighter weight Peterson, don't recall the number, but it's been a disappointment. The only thing I don't like about it is that the bowl is on the small side. But hey, I just need to fill it more. Those little clay pebbles really do soak up a lot of the byproducts of the tobacco. Too bad they are all out of stock.

Nording Eriksen

Sorry to say I'm not a fan of this pipe. They should have used a different material, the keystones keep melting the plastic material they used and it gives off a bad plastic taste.

Great pipe
Mar 10, 2016
The pipe is not the prettiest pipe but the system is quite ingenious and works very well to keep you puffing cool dry smoke. It is also pretty light and it's well constructed.

4th generation lighter

The lighter works once and awhile. Leeks out fluid. The fluid burns out quick. I tried two different kids of fluid. Just a paper weight

cool pipe
Dec 07, 2015
This pipe may seem a bit gadgety to some, but it works as advertised.The clay stones keep the moisture and heat to a minimum for a cool, gurgle-free smoke.

great pipe for the price and interesting system they use
Oct 11, 2015
I have enjoyed my Ericksen pipe it smokes really well i have had it some time now the only thing i have noticed wrong is it may have a bit of a tight draw for some but good part about the pipe is you can adjust the draw to how you like it and all it takes is a few drill bits and a drill. the other great thing about the pipe is that the keystones really work well but do not use to many other wise it can cause you a few issue experamented with the amount and i have to agree with the other review 8 to 9 is plenty. personally i will be ordering another Eriksen maybe more also a bag of keystones the even help some of my other pipes with moisture issues and i do not have to use pipe cleaners with my Eriksen and it keeps the pipes a bit cleaner in my opinion

Aromatics are fun again!
Sep 07, 2015
Aromatics are fun again. The keystones remove the gurgle and tar leaving just the taste and aroma. I only use 8 or so and it took me a little bit of time to get used to the pipe. I still prefer a mm cob for a drier burley blend.

Its doable

It was a disappointment because it so hard to draw but after my mods to it it smokes better. Only in my opinion you are better off with a falcon or something of that sort.

An excellent pipe the only downside I have found so far is that the stem is not the one I would prefer.

The Egg is Great
Jul 17, 2015
I have really enjoyed my Nording Erickson Keystone Egg. It has good capacity, light weight, cool and dry smoking. It just makes me mad that I didn't think of putting kitty litter in a pipe fifty years ago. All joking aside this pipe is a tremendous bargain.

A Bit Odd Looking, But Good Smoker!
Jul 03, 2015
I’ve spent years getting rid of the smoke juice in the bottom of the bowl or the stem of my pipes. Filters are OK, but they restrict the air flow a little. Any filter pipe draws better without the filter. Nording fixed my problem by building a pipe with a convoluted channel in the bowl bottom that holds pellets of an absorbent material that soak up the moisture. After two smokes I replace the inexpensive material with a few more pieces. My Keystone Egg #2 is now one of my regular smokers. Try it.

Decent pipe within limits
Jul 03, 2015
This seemed a bit of a novelty idea but for the price I took a shot. My real attraction to the pipe is that it broke down in pieces and would hopefully make a good kayak / travel / carry pipe. Easier to carry with less chance of breaking the stem of a traditional type and it does transport well.
As for smoking, the center hole in the bowl draws fine and I had no issues with the one exception of when I tried some cube cut.
I have smoked it with and without the keystones and personally don't see much difference. It also takes some getting used to to remember that you have the material in when breaking the pipe down for cleaning. I didn't find the channels that much bother to clean either, just a different technique needed that's all.
It's a handsome pipe in its own way and I will probably purchase another to throw in my carry-on bag at this favorable price.

Warning: DO NOT use too many keystones. My first bowlful had over 30 of those little stones in the base (more is better, right? Wrong!) and was truly awful. It was cool, but all flavor was gone and it was oddly harsh. I cut the keystone 'inventory' back to 8 or 9 and the pipe smoked pretty good...on a par with my customary cobs. Think I'll order a couple more of these pipes as spares. I like the shape, they smoke good, and they're not expensive. What's not to like?
RY of Lyons, NY
I am a fairly new pipe smoker, normally a cigar guy that came from cigarettes bout 6 months ago. I did my research before venturing into pipe smoking and decided to buy 8 missouri meerschaum pipes to see if I liked the hobby, the larger cobs are great and have reply helped enjoy this new hobby. I then tried a eriksen keystone (wanting to keep cost down) and am so happy with it ordered another before first bowl was gone to ash. I feel this is an excellent stepping stone to much nicer pipes once I get more experience in pipe smoking, but feel this will be a staple in my daily use pipe for a long time as a daily beater pipe, will get a few more for sure.

Just fired up my Eriksen pipe. I get a lot of tongue bite from time to time, decided to try the Eriksen pipe with the stones in. So far this is a great pipe. Absolutely no bite, and no moisture problems in the bottom of the bowl. It does get a little hot, but i will take that over tongue bite anytime. This is gonna be my new go to pipe.
HH of Stuart, FL
This is a wonderful pipe with the old english falcon pipe , but nording takes it all one step forward with the keystones and better briar. an excelent pipe that is a far better pipe than many others at a fraction of the price Jude Avant
JA of grand prairie, TX
Not bad! Good little beater pipe, so far has been a dry smoke.
KH of Woodbridge, VA
When you remove the bowl of this pipe there is an almost s like shape in the bottom. After you smoke this thing be ready to break out the q-tips and pipe cleaners because without the stones it can get quite wet.Given the price of the pipe I would probably give this a 9 out of 10. It really is a great utility pipe however the bowl did get a little hot.
BL of Hollywood, FL
Grand utility pipe! Breaks down to 3 parts for hiking, camping or storage. It's a smooth smoker, with or without the filtering keystones: less bite with stones; more flavor without stones. I discovered the 5" Nording "Valhalla" pipestem, sold here by "Pipes & Cigars", fits these Keystone Pipes, for enjoying a Churchwarden-ish smoke! This may be a homely pipe, but you won't find a better smoking pipe for the money!
