This particular form of briar wood is optimal for the production of Canadian pipes.

A Canadian pipe is a specific type of tobacco pipe distinguished by its longer, narrow shank. It belongs to the family of "billiard-shaped" pipes, meaning pipes with a generally cylindrical and straight bowl, but with the shank (the middle part of the pipe between the bowl and the mouthpiece) being particularly long in the Canadian version.

The characteristics of a Canadian pipe include:

• Long shank: The shank is significantly longer than in most other pipe shapes, which can lead to a cooler smoke, as the smoke cools more on its way through the longer shank.
• Short mouthpiece: The mouthpiece is shorter in proportion to the shank.
• Cylindrical bowl: The bowl typically has the classic billiard shape, meaning it is generally cylindrical and straight.

The long shank gives the Canadian pipe an elegant and well-balanced appearance. It is appreciated by pipe smokers who prefer a cool and even smoke.
