HERE ARE 6 WOODS THAT ARE ALSO EXCEPTIONAL CUE WOODS. MGURUE IS VERY DENSE AND RARE.
THE ITALIAN OLIVE COMES FROM TREES THAT ARE AT LEAST 500 YEARS OLD. RAINTREE HITS EXCEEEDINGLY WELL AND IS QUITE RARE.

HERE ARE 8 PIECES OF METICULOUSLY LAMINATED BUTTERFLY HANDLES. WHEN THE STOCK IS TURNED DOWN TO THE CONE SHAPE, THE BUTTERFLIES BECOME VERY SHARP AND PRONOUNCED. SEE SAMPLES IN THE "CUES FOR SALE" SECTION. I USE ONLY HIGH QUALITY EXOTIC HARDWOODS IN MY LAMINATES.
EACH PIECE IS DIFFERENT. IT IS A TIME- CONSUMING EFFORT TO MAKE THESE BEAUTIFUL HANDLES. HOWEVER, THE EFFORT IS WELL WORTH IT. ONCE YOU WRAP YOUR HAND AROUND ONE OF THESE, YOUR CUE COMES TRULY "ALIVE".

HERE IS THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HANDLES SHOWN ABOVE. I HAVE ABOUT 24 TO 30 PIECES OF LAMINATED BUTTERFLY HANDLES IN STOCK--ALL DIFFERENT. WHEN I SELL A CUE WITH ONE OF THESE HANDLES INSTALLED I PROVIDE A LIST OF THE WOODS USED IN THE HANDLE (SEE "CUES FOR SALE" SECTION FOR AN EXAMPLE).
