A polymer nose flute...no, I'd rather not think about it.

How's the sound? How well does it play? How does it feel *to you*?

You'll play better if you're comfortable with it. Sure, there will be those who disparage you for for being "non-trad" but hey! the first guys who played metal flutes were probably bad-mouthed by the wooden flautists, just as the woods were ripped by the boners, and the boneheads by the guys* who swore by puckering up and blowing.

Learn to play the concrete flute. After that they won't say anything about polymer.
