    Black Masters Chalk

    Unless you have Black Felt why would you want to use Black Chalk. Of all the Colors that would have to show more chalk marks than any color out there. I have never seen Black Masters Chalk but you may be able to get it as they do make Black felt.

    I don’t know Chicken but I will give you another example. The hall of Rambo cue made by Adam Balabushka has multiple veneers with different colors. The eBay cue only has 1 brown veneer.
