Well, that depends. While it’s crafted to fit your rugged lifestyle, are we talking about crushing it with a 190,000 lb Caterpillar D10 or just slamming a door on it? One customer drove their car over their Tōk and it was fine. We like to say work hard, play hard, Tōk hard…and when shit happens, we’ve got you covered.
Some people find there’s no noticeable smell from their pocket or purse when their pre rolls are in the Tōk. What we’ve learned from customers is it really depends on the potency of what you’re packing. There is a tiny, tiiiiiiny gap between the lid and the body though, so dropping a lit joint into it won’t seal the smoke in—but you be you.
Going rafting, eh? Let’s just say if whatever you’re doing is making your hands wet enough to make a joint soggy, you should probably find a dry pocket for your Tōk. That said, grabbing it with wet hands or setting it on a wet surface will be no problem.
Sure is. Did you wear it out? Congratulations, power user! (You must be a fidgeter.) We’ll repair or replace your Tōk unless it looks like you’ve been doing your absolute best to smash it. Wear out the next one, too? We’ve still got you…and depending on what you’re up to with these babies, we may even feature your story. If you send back your Tōk, make sure you’re following us on Instagram—you might see us put your returned product through the paces in one of our testing videos.
Most, if not all, factory-made half-gram pre-rolls. As for those you twist yourself, it depends on how big you roll ‘em! Most folks can actually fit 2 or 3 joints in each hole. The exact dimensions are ½” diameter x 3.3” long and 13mm diameter x 84mm long, but to help you visualize: if you drop in a Sharpie, the Tōk encases all but the marker lid. Some people even use one hole for breath mints, but that’s up to you. Do what you want, we’re into it.
A good cleaning of the lid and its track should take care of it. Use some tissue and a ballpoint pen, make a micro wad with the tissue, and get into two key areas:
– The groove on the underside of the lid. Make sure to slide it to get at it from both sides. This is usually the culprit.
– The lid track on each side. Get both sides of the lid and the track in the body of the case. Again, use the slider to get at it from each side.
Lubrication in the form of a half-drop of any type of oil or a bit of wax rubbed in the groove under the lid can do wonders, too. But if these tricks don’t work, let our crew know and we’ll get you sorted out.
The standard (classic) Bic and mini both fit, except for some classics with plastic novelty wraps; those can be a tight fit (sorry Riders’ fans!) Clipper minis and Ronson butane plastic refillables fit just fine, too.
Each Tōk is 3.5” (89mm) long, 2.9” (74mm) wide, and 0.7” (18mm) deep. It weighs 4 oz (115g). So think of it as pocket-sized. (The average men’s jeans pocket is 9.1” deep and 6.4” wide and the average women’s is 5.6” deep and 6” wide.)
Oh, and the holes are: ½” (13mm) diam. x 3.3” (84 mm) long.
We have a passion for small-scale manufacture that we hope is unmistakable the first time you hold something we’ve made. We combine all the forces of science and technology to produce what may be the finest joint case on the planet. Each Tōk is purpose-built with fully machined anodized aluminum. Anodizing applies the colour coating and hardens the outer skin of the aluminium so it’s a lot more resistant to marks and abrasions. It also ensures the raw aluminium won’t blacken your hands. Lastly, unlike paints and other coatings, anodizing does not reduce the recyclability of aluminium. It minimizes materials such as volatile organic compounds (VOCs) or heavy metals, making your Tōk fully recyclable at the end of its life.
In most ways, yes! It’s fully manufactured in BC, using a CNC machining process that is environmentally conscious due to careful stewardship of the machinery, material and energy used to produce the Tōk. We recycle almost all waste, produce enough solar energy to run the shop, and choose our suppliers carefully. We’re trying our best to be the change we want to see and we’re always looking for opportunities to do better.
The Tōk is made of 6061T6 Aluminum that is manufactured and melted in the USA. It’s type II anodized in Canada. It’s CNC machined on a Haas (made in USA) machining centre, and the cutting tools are primarily made in the USA as well.
The idea came from a Rossland, BC local legend who works with metal as a welder/fabricator. He didn’t like the inconvenient packaging his pre roll joints came in, or the stigma that came with repurposing old pill bottles to carry them. He approached a designer/machinist he regularly collaborated with and together they iterated the first Tōk. Two long years and many design revisions later, and the Tōk—a high-quality, purpose-built product—was born.
Yep. We understand your everyday carry is an extension of who you are, right down to the colour. Again, just send your unused Tōk back (within 21 days of ordering) and let us know what colour you’d like instead.
In Canada: use the contact page to ask us to send you a prepaid return envelope.
In the USA: you’ll have to pay for the return shipping (sorry). Contact us and we’ll provide some shipping tips to help make this easy on you.
We get it, you’re excited. So are we, because we know you’re going to love your Tōk. Don’t worry, it’s likely still on its way. If it’s been over 3 weeks since you placed your order, please contact us and we’ll sort you out.
Contact us. Most people fall in love the second it hits their hand, but if that doesn’t happen for you, we’ll take your unused Tōk back, no questions asked, and issue a full refund (within 21 days of the order). Yes, we’re that confident you’ll love the sleek design and rugged practicality. But if it didn’t tick all the boxes and you’re in the mood to share, we’d be really interested to hear what you didn’t like about it.
Hell ya! Message us on Instagram, Facebook, or use the contact page to tell us what you’d like to see.

Join the Tōk community. We want to hear about how you went from sneaky, ashamed toker to stylish, open Tōker. Seize the moment and spark up when adventure strikes, and make sure to tag us with #showyourtok or #tookmytok.
No can do. Like a collection of tools built up over many years, some Tōks are irreplaceable. That means that once gone, there’s no guarantee a colour will make a comeback—so if you see one you like, snag it!
Well, it sure as heck wasn’t one person! An invaluable bunch to say the least, here’s the folks who were part of the team:
Laura at www.revywebdesign.ca: amazing design intuition, and a real treat to get to know and collaborate with. Look forward to continuing work!
Bobbi at www.biz.bobbibarbarich.ca: A photographer that gets 20 good shots but only seems to need to take 10! On top of her amazing product photography she runs an amazingly casual / real style of shoot. Makes for amazing shots.
Katee www.kateepederson.com: She made the product look so much better than real life we had to tone it down a notch, haha! (Katee, you know the purple) Thank you!
Val and Kyla at www.writersblocksolutions.ca: Not just amazing wordsmiths but key in forming the marketing backbone for a lot of the others to work off of. It was a a ton of work and a ton of laughs!
Kirstin and Chris and the www.sikpics.ca team: an amazing video from such a smooth interaction. I can’t believe how they took a conversation to a final product so smoothly – amazing design intuiting!
Ona at www.businessreachmarketing.com Without Ona none of you would have probably found us to read this! So key to the initial ‘stoke’ for the project and fantastic to work with. So much more to come too.
