a bowl is anything u put your bud in to smoke, a pipe is just a tool used to smoke.

Also if someone says "smoke a bowl" they mean smoking a bowlful of weed in a pipe or bong :D :thumbsup:

Literally has the shape of a bowl.

Basically the same thing.

When I first started smoking more than 20 years ago "bowl" and "pipe" were usually used to describe different things. A "pipe" was, well.. a pipe. Duh! The "bowl", however, is the actual area of the pipe where you put the weed. Think about it, it is shaped like a bowl. So, a pipe ,a bubbler, and a bong all have "bowls". Over the years, however, people just started using "bowl" as a generic word for pipe. But back then, if somebody said the just got a new bowl you'd wonder what they were talking about.

I can't give a better answer than Fengzi thats gotta be the Dictionary entry from now on.

A pipe and a bowl really isnt different. The bowl is what you put the weed in when ever your smokin out of anything thats considered a pipe or bong.

I buy loose bowls so there is a difference between a bowl and a pipe.
