Question for old timers@

View attachment 899199$1.50 for a whole box of tips. Oh yes, times have changed... I have never tried Royal Oak, anyone here use them? Thoughts?
I have not had good luck with Royal Oak.
I love the box and the price.
The tips I have purchased were for house cues in places that don't care.
Some worked out but at least half, seemed to soft.
Dusty when being worked on the lathe and even when weted were grabbing the cutter and tearing.
It could have been the batch?

Did Adam ever build Karella cues?

Did Tascarella design the line of cues that this cue came from? That is pretty cool if he did. I wish that I could find the 2nd half of this Colored brochure. This site only showed the 1st half of this line of cues. From K-2 through K-7. Is this the same line that my cue came from? K-11? Just out of curiosity, it would be cool to learn what this cue retailed for. Do you think these cues were as good quality as the Falcon line of cues? Thanks for all the info.
No. Despite all the rumors, Pete did not design any of the Karella cues, according to Don.

4-6 point cues with colored veneers and linen wraps are my favorite

That’s the one I got. I like it. I see what skor is saying on the skinny points. But for whatever reason it doesn’t seem that noticeable in person. That kind of thing can bother me, but on this cue it doesn’t.

Yeah, I like the wider points and veneers, where I can imagine them coming together below the wrap. Like on a Titlist cue for example.

I can see my post is misleading or plain incorrect . Don says he never walked away from Karella.
