Very nice. Nice, crisp lines. Perfectly acceptable style although bringing the widest part of the bowl up just a touch would be more traditional and slightly thicker walls would be more classic styling. Not sure if you were aiming for classic or not.

I'd like to see the bowl canted forward just a touch more. Still, very well executed.

It's a nice pipe, but something about the stem's taper is looking a bit odd to me. Sort of bulging a bit maybe? Might just be a long day that's playing tricks with me.

Yes, this is not a classic billiard: proportions (for example length of mouthpiece), shape of shank, etc. - I do not planned to make a classic billiard
