Talisman WB XX-hard with a durrometer reading of about 95, way to hard for playing, about right for a break cue (BCAPL) or jump cue.

I have some being made. Will be done in a week or so. They are very, very hard but grabby. Nothing like them. The only thing I do not like is the very hard feel, which is great for me but not all of my buyers. Dunno what i'm gonna call them yet. But I plan to sell a few as i'm buying them by the thousand. If you want, get in touch with me in a couple weeks & i'll send you one to try. They're like giving crack to kids. They always come back wanting to buy.

Yes, please let me know when they come in.

Eric, how do they work as a break tip?
The hardest tip I ever used was made from my first mother-in-law's heart.
One afternoon, me and a couple of guys I play pool with were looking around for some really hard tips when it occured to me that as mean as my first mother-in-law was she would have to be so hard-hearted that her cardiac tissue would doubtless make incredibly hard tips. The fact that we had been drinking all day had nothing to do with our reasoning at the time. So, that night we snuck out to the cemetary (by an odd coincidence there was a full moon out) and dug her up.
Placing a tow sack over her face (she was scary enough when she was alive), I pulled my trusty Barlow from my pant pocket and began removing the organ of interest from her withered chest. In about thirty minutes, or so, I had achieved success and we were off to my garage to commence phase two, whatever the hell that was. We left things pretty much as they were out at the cemetary, figuring someone would eventually come along and cover her up. Besides that, one of my friends was starting to sober up and was scared of graveyards.
After arriving at my garage I placed the remains on the work bench and began dissection of the reasonably intact organ with the skill of a surgeon. Make that drunk surgeon because I cut myself twice. When finished I had four pieces of tissue, each approximately two inches by five inches and one quarter of an inch thick. We were so pleased with our success thus far that the three of us polished of another twelve-pack.
It was at this point that we needed to find out how to go about tanning tip material, and one of the guys suggested we do a search on the ever popular AZB forum for any available information. Sure enough, in about five minutes we had a receipe for tanning buffalo hides. This information should be perfect since our thought was that if it worked on a buffalo it damn sure ought to work on my mother-in-law.
I don't actually recall all the ingredients we used, but I know that alcohol was cheif among them and fortunately for us we had a couple of quarts of Quervo Gold on hand. We put the four pieces in a mason jar, poured in enough mixture to just cover them, attached the lid, and hid the jar behind a stack of old Playboys where I knew it would be safe.
We closed and locked my garage, and headed for the poolhall.
Stay tuned for tomorrow's thrilling conclusion when one of the guys asks. "Let's stop at the Taco Bell on the way."

i dont know about this post above me, but i vote samsara hands down! only thing harder is phenolic.
Awesome. Perfect for breakers because they grab so well but still very hard. Makes easy for control. I'll give you one when they come in.
best hard tip i've ever played with
best hard tip i've ever played with and it lasted just over one year playing four to five times a week. Talisman WB x-hard, they used to be a dark blue color. after it was done on my playing cue i cut it off and stuck it on my break cue. awesome tip but i'm not sure if they're around anymore.
