As usual, James, that looks great. If I were a wealthier man that would be in my collection. Keep up the good work.

How many pipes are you planning on taking to the show?

This is a pipe very well done. One thing that bothers me, though, is the shank. Something is not pleasing to the eye, and I think it might be the straight line at the top and curve at the bottom (when seen from the side) that doesn't work together.
But overall, well done!

Beautiful pipe, James. I see what Charl is seeing on the top of the shank. I don't know about everyone else, but I really struggle in getting a good curve on the top of the shank. The bottom is easy. It's still a very nice pipe.
