Did Adam ever build Karella cues?

I have been trying my best to research Karella cues, and it appears that they have been made in at least several different places, or factories.

I am thinking that maybe they might have been made by Adam at one time though, because those look good quality to me, and used the same rubber bumper that Adam cues, if that means anything.

Anyways, I mistakenly purchased one, thinking that it might be a Schon, lol. I feel like such an idiot, lol, but it really has a very Schon like design to it, and also a 5/16x14 SS joint.

The pictures were pretty lousy though, but I thought it looked like a really good quality cue, with a fairly nicely figured BEM forearm.

I am also thinking that maybe these were made in the same factory that built Lucasi cues. The same factory also made cues for Adam, for a long time, I believe, but those Adam cues had the Roman Numeral numbers on them, just like Lucasi cues did, so that is why I made that connection. Also, similar ring work..

Anyways, getting back on topic. Does anyone here think that those Karella cues were very good quality?

I just can't find any info about them.

The one that I purchased is identical to the one in the pictures below.

I am thinking that the cue might be of similar quality to a 90's era Lucasi cue. Like those Buddy Hall Lucasi cues, for example. But, I do not know.

Thanks a lot for any thoughts.
