Unknown cue

Instead of a smart-a$$ answer, why don't you tell him how to tell if it's ivory or not?

To the OP...I'm no expert, but I believe if you heat up a pin and touch it to the inside of the butt cap you can tell. If it's ivory, it will smell like burning hair. Looks like ivory to me, with the grain you can see.

I bought this $13.00 jewlers loupe on Amazon, and the black light function to check for ivory is about all it's good for.
You get what you pay for, but the black light has come in handy a few times

Screw you Scott.
I can post what ever i want.
Just because you think you are some big time instructor dont tell me what i can and can not post.
 
Same to you Bruce. Yes, you can post anything you want. That said, the OP was asking a legitimate question that you made no attempt to answer. I don't think I'm "some big time instructor", but I hang around 'big time instructors'. :rolleyes:

Ditto. Did somebody die and make this guy the opinion police? If this cat doesn't like a persons takes he's more than welcome to put that poster on his ignore list. He's now firmly on mine.
 
your cue looks like a Mike Siegel to me--possibly the Chinese version circa 2002-2003.

Always use black light first before trying this, or bring to local antique guy most should know how to spot real/fake.

Ivory is very consistent in some of its grain but it def never looks manufactured. And imop nothing manmade comes close to its actual look at all. Things reminiscent sure but if it were like cloning a beautiful long lost love she’d come back with horse teeth, a club foot and a half eaten chicken nugget
