you can smoke it off of a knife to. just put 2 knives, butter knives are best, on the burner of your stove and turn the burner on. while your waiting for them to heat up what you nedd to make is a collector. bassicaly just get a empty 2 liter bottle or milk jug and cut the bottom off of it. take the cap off of the top of your collector and set it to the collector to the side for now. take a small peice of keif and roll it between your fingers into a ball. set your keif ball down. now get your oven mits of whatever you have to keep your hands from getting burned from the hot knives. this is where your friend comes in. whoever is not smoking will be holding the knives for the other person. to get the keif on the knife simply take one of the knives and lightly touch it to the keif ball, it should pick it up. once you have it on the knife turn it so the ball wont fall off and place the other knife on top of it. at this time put your collector in a position so that it begins to gather the smoke billowing up from the knives. as the collector starts to fill up take a big rip from the hole in top of the jug. make sure you keep the collector over the knives and collect the smoke even when you are not hitting it. soon enough you have a collector full of smoke and a great high. i know it sound complicated but once you do it the first time you'll understand a little better. and yeah its more involved than just throwing it in a bowl but its actually kind of fun to do. once both parties involved are ripped things dont work as well and it just gets funny. lol try it man the old timers that taught me how to do it said the learned it from Veitnam vets returning home, and they all swear by this method to this day. in my opinion its one of the most pure highs you can get
