Nothing here from cue maker royalty, but I'm pretty happy with the collection.

L-R

Cuelees Phantom Sword 1
GV Custom Cue
McDermott G210c3 with wrap upgrade
O'Min
Mezz MSP2-C
Steve Kornele from 2004
Paul Morey custom
McDermott/CHOPS SP1
Easton Modlin (Shon Hardin's son)

I have a pretty Sawdust cue, as well, but my girlfriend took a liking to it and I don't get to play with it anymore. At any rate, all of these see some table time, but the Cuelees & GV are my primary players.

Nice looking collection. Do you mind sharing your opinion on the Sawdust? I'm interested in his cues and looking for honest feedback. Thanks!
Hello! It's been a few months since I've gotten to play with it, thanks to the girlfriend, but I feel it's a great shooter. It's beautiful, well made, all the inlays are perfectly aligned, and just feels quality. It came with a carbon fiber shaft and I later picked up a matching carbon-cored kielwood for it. I generally prefer kielwood shafts, but in this instance I prefer the carbon fiber shaft. The hit is solid & just a little crispy (I have a Kamui Athlete tip on it) and I pocket balls confidently with it. I would probably place it in the top 3 or 4 of this group. I also moved away from the stock black pebbled leather wrap it came with, for appearances only. It looked & felt nice.

I've seen some other Sawdust cues in person (they inspired me to pull the trigger on mine) that looked and felt great. They were more traditional in design, but very well executed. I feel I got a lot of good cue for my $850 (cue, CF shaft & 8" extension) and plan on keeping it. If I ever get it back from the girlfriend.

Thank you for the detailed reply. Exactly what I was hoping to hear, from what I have read they are a nice cue and worth the $850 or so price tag. Considering what other cues are going for, I feel like they are a good bang for your buck. I really like his long points, just waiting for a design and color combo that catches my eye and I will likely pick one up.
 
Cool to see the Steve Kornele. He made me some joint protectors for a PK Custom but I haven't seen one of his cues.
It's a beautiful cue and solidly made. It's also my 2nd-oldest cue; I have an Adam cue that I've had for over 40yrs. I don't play with it as much anymore, preferring how more modern cues feel & play, but I have "blown the dust off" recently for nostalgia. It's been an enjoyable experience.
