First time using ebonite, much softer than the acrylic I'm used to. Buggered the button up a little bit. I'm pretty stoked about it overall. It is a gift to my wife. She doesn't smoke, so it will get displayed with her orca collection.

Well done.
Very very cool!
...and the birdseye on bottom is spectacular.
No doubt that your wife enjoys it,
such a special object done out of love --- wonderful!
I like the focus of her collection,
interesting.
I've always been fond of the Haida artworks, traditional as well as contemporary, and even have a Don Yeomans design on my arm for a tattoo (Raven steals the light)...
...here is his "killer whale":
Anyways,
nice stuff,
your whale is soulful and seems to carry a big personality,
I know it looks even better in the flesh because many time photographs can do no justice.
Thanks for sharing.
Work well done.

It is fully functional. Should smoke as well as any other pipe I've made. Scrooge can attest to how those are.
Really incredible! It's a shame it won't get used for actual smoking, but that's OK because that thing is art first, and a pipe second. I'm incredibly impressed.
Not exactly a clencher but a beautiful piece of art nonetheless. I'm sure that your wife will treasure it.
