OK the OKHEALING arrived yesterday. It fits my uniloc butt (Lucasi) perfectly; it's smooth, straight, seems put together very well and easily worth the $55 - including shipping. Not sure how they do it. Probably I don't want to know.
I got the 12.9mm - it came with what I think is a phenolic tip, and has no/conical taper. It feels perfectly fine to play with, though w/that tip I'll use it as a break cue. It also seems to jump pretty well, I was 2 for 2 w/the full cue.
Oh, now I see the description does actually say "Bakelite Tip", I didn't notice that. Fair enough!
It seems to squirt more than my Cynergy (11.8), but not a huge amount. The surface/finish feels pretty much the same as the cuetec, in fact a little better since I can't remember the last time I cleaned that cynergy.
So yeah I'd definitely suggest getting one if you're at all interested, can't really go wrong for the price. I'm sure I could sell this at the pool hall for at least what I paid for it, probably more. I did video the dramatic and exciting unboxing, can put that up later if anybody's interested.
