Taiwan knockoff of a Meucci look

Nick and his partner beat me and Tod in the ICCS tournament on Thursday night. We got one shot, I blew it, and they ran the table and then racked and ran the second set. It was an honor getting my ass kicked by him!

Secret to reading foreign languages is to squint till the writing looks like English and boom, fully translated.

It's a Swift Absolutely a Swift interior, not bad but also not good...

Says it right there on the cue. Made by Theo Vonn

Oh snap are you the dude that walked away from a 4k cue with a Texas maker. I.sure hope so because I just bought your cue!

Lighten up Francis...

Yes, and no... When your holding one it's pretty clear it's a polyresin ball and not pure phenolic. Plus after a few months of modest play they will be dull and surfaced scratched all to hell. No amount of polishing will return the out of the box luster.

Several Chinese companies do, here is a set that is a knock-off the Tournament Black, the most expensive set the make outside of the 100's

My cue does not have a bumper and from the photos of Nineballs neither did his but he would need to independently confirm that. The ferrule on my shaft is ivory here is a photo of it.

It's a Black, WTF are you on about

Over 300 cues right now, the majority are 70's to 90's American made production cues. 120 sets of phenolic balls mostly Aramith. A small bucket of scuffers, picks, and random pool tools that came in the cases with all those cues. I love every single piece...

Chinese import cue, looks like a KaoKao to me

If Nineball still has his cue I would definitely be trying to buy it right now! But is sounds like he sold it. Richard did tell the original owner he made it but when I got it in hand there were so many factors that just did not read RB cue. Clearly I was wrong and glad I was.

The design of his and the design of mine are pretty much identical except for the woods used on the forearm and the butt sleeve inlays. The two cues are almost exact opposites of each other.

Holy shit, maybe this is a Black...
