Welcome to Balkovec Pipes

Picture
Briar Pipes have been around for over a century.  Many Pipe Carvers have come and gone over the years.  I am one of those carvers that will try and leave my mark in the pipe world.  Using different materials such as acrylic and metal, I incorporate an eye catching inlay or band on the pipe or the stem.  Thank you for your interest in my pipes and thank you for visiting my site.

I would also like to thank all the great friends I have made in the Youtube community.  Their support in my pipe making endeavor means a great deal to me.

Introducing The "Blackjack" Tribute Pipe 

The "Blackjack" Tribute pipe is a Tribute to my late father Jack Balkovec.  When I visited my father for the last time before his death in August, I told him that I was going to make a pipe in his honor.  This is the pipe I have decided to design and name after him.  The Blackjack Poker is sleek, bold and beautiful just like the man it is named after.
It is a combination of a P3 and my Bad Ass Poker.
For you dad, Love Mark.
