Dave Kikel....Palmer Tribute
African Blackwood,
Pau Ferro, Desert Ironwood, East Indian Rosewood!
Dave did a great job of matching the wraps and the colors of the veneers to the various colors of pearlized plastic. He also used old Blue Mountain and Hurlbert linens for the wraps, which is no longer available. Everything about these cues is reminiscent of the old Paradises and Palmers. The mother-of-pearl inlay patterns looks just like the popular designs used on a lot of the old cues, even Balabushkas. They are genuine historical recreations of the old cues a lot of us remember and played with, and I think they will be appreciated by everyone. Best of all, although they have the old style look, they play like a modern day Kikel, which is saying a lot.
