It's called the Intimidator... Has anyone ever seen one of these? I think it'd be cool to see but 150k? Wow

This is from the site:

Masterpiece Intimidator

The Intimidator is the most expensive pool cue in the world and raises the bar to a whole new level of prestige. This sensational cue is a three-dimensional piece of art that features four bladed wings that can rip a table to shreds. The focal point is a Genuine Italian Obsidian Gemstone Sphere. Our designers started out with a 82-pound solid piece of stainless steel. After finely machining this piece for over a year, the result was an amazing 9½ pound masterpiece.

Doesn't say anthing about being low deflection or what kind of tip it comes with.
 
I believe there is only one. Jim had it at the first ever cuemaker's show
in Houston. I observed.

It was a fantasy art cue that Jim saw penciled on one of Roy Nehs design sheets. Roy was an artist that worked at McD's in various roles from ad copy to cue designs. I have hit some balls with it, and it has drawn blood.

That will teach you to not drop your elbow =P
 
I would like to buy it and have it converted into a lamp.
Looking for a forum with an "ask the lampmaker" section.
 
And you thought your buddy's 27 ounce break cue made you grunt.

Try 152 ounces.

I like how "rip a table to shreds" is a selling point haha. Because hopefully I have an antique $250,000 table I can ruin.
 
1) That is not the world's most expensive cue.

2) That is not a cue.

Thanks

Pretty sure you have to a Night Elf Mohawk to use that thing.
