The older Excalibur cues from the 90s had designs like these plain Jane’s and I believe that Viking made many of them if not all.
Several , though, came with those older thick heavy brass joints. The shafts on the old Excaliburs were often very good quality wood
Some Excalibur cues were made by Viking. Many were made in China though.
The issue with the Viking made cues is that they lost all their records when they shut down. The company was resurrected, but much of that history was lost. At some point someone at Viking said they were working on rebuilding that history, but I don't think I heard anything about it since then.
Viking made many cues for a variety of brands.
