Joss did the finger joint back in the 1980's.

This is the Viking.

This is a modern Joss core.

We recently saw a Schon cue factory tour, I am interested in comparing and contrasting all of what the current makers do.

Adam Musashi cues have a square core.

I have seen some "custom" makers using expanding adhesives around a core to fill the gap rather than machine to tight tolerances.

The Viking finger joint is featured in this video.

 
JFlowers use a maple core that have 4 carbon inlays running throughout the length of the butt for reinforcement.
