Hi,

I bought a job-lot of cues and in amongst them I have 2 Hanbat cues. A bit of Googling suggests these may be 3-cushions\carom cues?

They look fairly old, but could just be well used. I'll post some pics later, but just wanted to know if there was much of a market for these cues?

Thanks.

I have a few Hanbats. I think they play well. These's a market for them. Would love to see them.

It is hard to tell in the pictures, but those look like solid shafts rather than the plus-5 laminated shafts they currently use in everything but their entry level cues. If that's the case I'd have to guess they are older cues, as a search for Hanbat Dorosi came up empty.

Yeah I can't find any results for Dorosi either. Strange.

My limited experience with Hanbat cues is that even their cheapest house cues are really solid.

As far as a market?? In the US there's very little market for the game itself. I doubt if there's 100K people that play even once a year. Of that market a large % just play with their pool cue. Most of them have no idea there's a difference between a pool cue and carom. or Snooker for that matter. or Pyramid or .......

Demand for Carom anything is not .... I can't find the words.

We're unusual beings. Hows that? And I already own my player, and others from the last 40 some years. I wouldn't mind a Hanbat on my rack but I'd have to remove some personal history first. That would be a little hard.

I'm not looking to sell these in particular. They can sit with the others I've got lying around.

If you have something in your rack that you think is worthy of swapping for one of the Hanbats, let me know

Bottom two cues are club cues, meaning house cues. Used to be about $25 in Korea.
Top one, I cannot figure out. Maybe not Hanbat. I am afraid to say, but never seen .
That’s all I can say.
