pip does not get installed

[jsjudd]

I have followed instructions to install 'pip', but it does not show up.
Here is my command-line output:
JSJv-air:~ me$ python ~/Downloads/get-pip.py
Requirement already up-to-date: pip in /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages
JSJv-air:~ me$ which pip
JSJv-air:~ me$

The last line there indicates no output from the 'which' command, which
indicates that pip is not a known command. I think it should have been
put into /usr/local/bin, but the only thing I find in there is
/usr/local/bin/pip
which is an empty directory.

What have I fouled up?

I have Python version 2.7.10 running on a MacBook Air running MacOS 10.12.6.
