Recut points?

I was looking at the following recent ad for a Tascarella, which says it has recut points:


It was my understanding that recut points are a technique for creating veneers, which does not leave a miter line in the veneers. Yet, in the pictures of that cue I can clearly see a miter line in the blond veneer. I can't see miter lines in the other veneers. Do cuemakers make veneers where some are mitered and others are recut?

I would say No.

There's three ways of doing short splice points, recut, mitered, wrap around..

There is a possibility that the blonde is a veneer and the other colors are recut. The blonde is not a recut, and doesn't appear to be mitered.
 
One thing for sure.
If I was selling a Cue on line,
I would definitely show better pictures of the points.
Especially RECUTS!
 
On the Cue posted. He is clearly selling the Cue based on who made it as opposed to the actual work that went in to it.
Some people just don't know how to take pictures.
2nd biggest rule in retail.
If you can't display it properly, it's harder to sell it.

Please
Break it down for us
Mitered veneer method on single points.
Squares are overlapped method veneers.
Forearm on left side mitered.
Right side overlapped.
