Anyone with first hand experience with these?
The web site makes it sound exactly what I am looking for, however we all know what good marketing skills can do. :p

Anyone able to tell me their opinions of them?
 
I used a phenolic tip on my break cue for quite a while. It was very effective. I changed to the white diamond tip last year and couldn't be happier. It doesn't feel as hard but the balls seem to spread better. I think due to better control of the cueball. I have been buying from itsahdeal AKA Joe Piccone for years. He's the real thing.

The white diamond tip was exactly what I was looking for. The break shots are exceptionally powerful. The only problem I had is that with an ultra power break I tend to launch the Qball across the room. The nasty phenolic sound is replaced with a satisfying THUD. Miscues are eliminated as the tip holds chalk very well. My jumps have never been more accurate. I have not miscued on the jump or missed a hit in any matches since I had this tip installed on my jacoby jumper. I always had miscues with the original phenolic tip. Overall, these tips are a steal and any repair guy can install them easily.

For anyone who installed one, how easily are they cut? Can a sharp razor go through it easily or is it really hard?
 
I had one a while ago. It ended up flying off one day after a hard break. I think to get them to stay one the installer needs to score or rough up both the tip and ferrule before gluing.

The material is hard. Easier to sand than to cut.

Before I bought my new J/B, I made one by taking an old cue and putting a white diamond tip on it. Performed well.
