Dbl butterfly silver leaf dufferin?

Wow u found an ebony for 80? Can't find any less than 150-250 lately. Darned ebay people driving up prices I guess. Still have not found another with the butterfly on each side. Crazy. I have a fantastic plain ebony conversion with a beautiful bem forearm. Super hard to find ebony into bem buffs. Most are straight grain or curly. Don't know why but I just love the. Lol.

Dbl butterfly silver leaf dufferin?

Typically $125 to $150. Some will sell for $250.

Typically they attract more if they have the Glider joint than if they have the odd pin in shaft Dufferin joint. I don't know the name of that joint.

I recently picked one up with ebony into figured birdseye maple for $80.

I think the "best" or most attractive to me are the ones with ebony into figured maple forearms. Harder to find, and even harder to find if you want really great figure.

The two piece ebony into figured maple with the Glider joint was the Dufferin Excalibar model. Yes, spelled with "ar" at the end.

I have no idea what that double butterfly model is but it is a cool example for sure.

FG Bradley in Canada still has some in stock, but they are not the "old" ones. They have spare shafts as well.

Here are some of my examples. I have 2 or 3 more. The one in the pictures with no butterfly was originally a snooker cue. I have the snooker shaft but it has the standard Glider joint do pool shafts fit it perfectly, so I mated an NOS pool shaft with it.


Wow.
