This is made after a horn style, conforming to the limits of the material, which looks more like a talon or skeletal claw of a large creature. It's a prototype. My first attempt in working with the knuckle of the Bamboo root. It's 100% Bamboo, hand tooled for a perfect, tight fit. Purely tribal and cool to smoke. I'll have to make a few more of these for sure.

Thank-you, saltedplug! I usually start with one concept, only to change direction based on the materials, mishaps and road blocks. This time I tried to stay true to horn and seemed to have fulfilled that.
It could also be an outlandish cigar holder, I'm sure. A conversation piece at that. :)
This is all for fun, of course. I may sell a few or trade for a real pipe, etc. (I think something has more value if it's earned, as the wife would agree).
