Full ivory or sleeved? Radial?

I'm curious if it is "full ivory" or "sleeved". The reason I am asking is because I really have no idea what the difference is.

What is the difference and does it change how the cue plays or is it just another "looks" aspect?

Thanks in advance,

Sleeved is a wood to wood joint with a barrel of ivory on the outside....

I don't think I can feel a difference on a blind test...

Mainly for aesthetics...

Hmmm. I was thinking that was the case but wanted to make sure I was on the same page.

I doubt I would be able to tell the difference either. But I can see where it would matter as far as aesthetics for collecting value...etc..

Thanks.
