- Have you ever wondered how smoking pipes are made? Many people know that briar wood is the most common material, but few know where it is found, or how to harvest, cut and cure it for use in pipes. Enter Mimmo, a second generation briar cutter in Northern Italy who supplies top quality briar to pipe makers and factories around the world. Meet him and learn about his passion and his process in this charming three-part video.
See more of Mimmo in the feature documentary, Father the Flame, now available online:

the most random thing I've watched on youtube at 3am but I liked it.
The pipe industry needs more material like this online. This was so well made. Great job I wanna make pipes now.
Thanks! You should give pipe-making a try! We have a bunch more material from the film that we're hoping to put online. Hopefully this year, stay tuned!
We need more stuff like this and less of the toxic "'Merica" garbage that many channels seem to feature. Flags everywhere and instead of talking about pipes or tobacco, they go on and on about political hoo hah. THIS is what pipes are all about. Not all the other clutter that gets in the way.
Just finished watching the actual documentary (it's on Tubi). Mimmo seems like such a genuine guy. Love his life, loves his work. And he gets to drink the best wine!
this was amazing, i caught myself thinking "it's just a piece of wood, why does a pipe sometimes cost hundreds of dollars", this video showed me why, i had no idea so much had to happen to get a pipe out of the wood. really awesome video
Bring me over there and house me, feed me and ill clothe myself and woodwork in your shop all the day long happy as can be, Mimmo. The crazy cut ebeuchon. Long live Mimmo
Ill even go into the woods with my own Pulaski axe and grub out all briar you want, Mimmo
After watching this I gained new appreciation for briar and bought a unique pipe from a pipe maker, what a beautiful art.
You must be true to yourself, before you can be true to others. That shows in this video. Keep cutting and counting your ten most important tools/fingers. Thank you for the short walk through your life and work.
I never knew. Such an obscure and fascinating industry, super specialized and nuanced. A well made and enjoyable video, thankyou
What a wonderfully produced film! I am astounded by the passion shown by the artisans. My father was a pipe smoker for many years and I can still smell the aroma as if was only a few moments ago. Even though he quit a few decades ago, I still see him fiddle about as if he's holding his pipe when he has a quiet moment.
Truly a Legend He is one of Kind . Thank you for this amazing documentary. He is the last of his kind . Thank you as a pipe smoker very informative
Exceptional documentary! Absolutely fantastico!
Finding Mimmo. This was a great video.
These videos are an insane quality! Thank you SO MUCH!
What a like-able fella
The best video I have ever seen about briar wood! 😊👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😊👍👍😉
Mimmo is a character.
Bellissimo!!!!! Bravo Mimmo..you are the Best!!!!
Thank you! I've watched the full-length documentary a good few times already and this shorts are a great supplement.
Really looking forward to seeing more. The mood that you've captured through this whole journey is something extraordinary.
Thanks Suhail! Glad you're enjoying the film and these vignettes. There's a lot more on the way, much of it follows the same themes as the film. We just kept running into incredible stories and characters, it's been a pleasure to share.
As a pipe smoker blown away by this video unbelievable I wish I had a job there creating such a art
Fantastic video. Finally put a face to the famous "Mimmo" name. Thank you! 👍🏻👍🏻

This reminds me of the Statue David. Story has it that Michelangelo' was entering a contest and someone had a piece of Marble and and it got chipped and they couldn't use it. Michelangelo' said he would use it and that is how David got his lean in his stance.
My last 2 pipes were your blocks. Thanks.
I admire his positive & happy character.
But does anyone know approximately how many people in the world today still smoke pipes. Smoking in general is in decline in most first world countries because people are aiming to have healthier lifestyles. I don't smoke, but I love pipes as a beautifully crafted item. I suppose some people might collect them.
Complimenti a tutta la Famiglia Romeo, da chi l'ha creata e a chi gli sta dando tanto lustro nel mondo ! Viva la radica e le pipe Romeo ! 👏👏👏👍👍👍
Thanks for sharing Mimmo I will appreciate my Briar pipes more now. Keep up the good work
Great work. Can't wait for more!
The next one should be out pretty soon actually. Stay subscribed!
I can only imagine how wonderful his workshop must smell.
Just bought the movie today. Can’t wait to watch it. Thanks for making it.
Being the owner of a beautiful Chacom pipe, it's nice to see where it came from
Aron Kovacs Great to hear! Stay tuned, we’ve got more on Chacom heading this way.
I’ve thought a lot about making pipes before. Funny this popped up for me
Very class documentary..he is Rossi of wood pipe.
I'm 3rd generation pipe smoker my grandpa, my father,and me , my son is 4 the, and my grandson is looking into - I remember my grandpa had 9 pipes and used to put an apple in them to keep them fresh, it's funny you can have 2 pipes from the same brand same everything and one will smoke different.
Well done...just a fantastic story of an amazing man. A pleasure to watch!
Be well,
Stephen
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed.
Brother, amazing... 👏 👏 👏
Wow! This is the perfect combination of science and art.
خیلیییییییی عالی بود 👏👏👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️❤️ممنونم از این ویدیو بسیار آموزنده شما .
Wonderful story.....thanks
Appreciate you showing us how they harvest the briar, some amazing characters. All the best from Scotland. GD
Really enjoyed the video (and the film). I really admire Mimmo's eye for the briar. I make my own pipes out of ash wood but I can't read the wood like Mimmo and proper pipe makers.
It is like watching Picasso it is truly magnificent. Thank you!!
Thank you for this video. It was pleasure to watch this story!

Great guy , very interesting , never realized so much go's in to this
Great video, thankyou all for what you do. I'm sitting on my back porch with my briar thinking about how great it would be to go hunting for Briar trees in Tuscany.
Thanks
How wonderful my friends in spirit my brother in blood there is a special place in my heart for all involved in this art I love them all there is nothing I can say!
I want to know how it prevents mold from growing on all that wet fresh cut wood in the humid basement?
un boeno hab razo de tu amigo soler
How does he keep the Briar Burls from molding in his cellar?
I read today that it is very dangerous to cut the briar with the saw. That's why only few do it today. Many have lost a finger at the saw. You don't know and can't tell if a rock might be enclosed in the wood and if the saw hits it, you can get seriously injured. The harvesting and curing part looks like very hard work.
Really hope this guy is ok regarding COVID19....
Where can I buy this Heather
He is covered in safety gear. Look at that protection hat !
Commovente
how has he still got all his fingers ?
esta una possibilita cut una vesta pipa block por favor
Does he sells pipes he made?
I don't understand why Mimmo doesn't sear chain link gloves.
5:18 leave it to Italians to make watering wood artistic
i want to know how to make this newspaper hat he has
Its so wet in the wood lager.
❤️❤️❤️😃😃😃
8:10 that's what she said
I have one
Briar and cat food (cut off fingers) manufacturer I bet!
Father the Flame
😎👍🏼
Варвары!!
I’d us a nylon strap and come-a-long to pull the root and maybe a saw
Hej
That saw is terrifying
its sad i went in the chacom factory 3 days ago ,its in chambles ,ruined all crumbling ,he left his factory abandonned ,i saved a few pipes in the process
The word in English is “conviction “
I know that these guys know what they're doing; but, they seemed so ROUGH when they were harvesting the brier roots. I'd be concerned that I was going to damage some really primo wood if I was hacking and chopping like that.....
TOM PIPPS FOAM- BATON ROUGE LOUISIANA USA HI HELLO &

3:40 Such a destructive hobby, all those trees chopped up. Just so some fat cat can smoke out of it... Should be banned.
You should be banned
