Impressive piece of work!
Would one actually be able to smoke tobacco from it?

You bet, it is drilled and ready.
Now, I have smoked through pipe hawks, well they don't generally due justice to the tobaccos flavor.

Personally I stick to clay or burl for smoking.

I have never seen an original with the steel bit attached like that. Could you post a pic of one, or tell me where to find one?
