PK CUE BY CODY CASH
EBONY & MAPLE FOUR POINT
WITH BRIDGED POINTS,
SHADOW POINTS AND SILVER
|
Here's another beautiful stick built by Cody Cash in Wichita. He's been making cues with more complex designs the last couple of years, and this one is a good example. It's one of the nicest cues I've seen come out of his shop.
|
This is an ebony and maple cue - an ebony butt sleeve with four long points of ebony, smaller ebony "shadow" points and a maple nose.
|
The pattern in the butt sleeve is balanced and detailed. He starts with some silver veneered ovals and then inlays a complex floral pattern of white elforyn, with highlights of small red diamonds and flowers.
|
He outlines the long points with red and white veneers separated with black paper, and the bridges them at the bottoms. There's a lot of thought in this design, and a lot of work as well.
|
He adds delicate silver rings with small white inlays reminiscent of the larger floral patter in the butt sleeve, and inlays small red diamonds within each one, forming a very classy ring pattern.
|
Between the four long points he inlays shorter, shadow points, each carefully inlaid with long silver veneers.
|
At the base of each long point he inlays an elongated Fleur d'Lis pattern in white.
|
He uses the fancy ringwork above the butt cap, below and above the handle, at the joint and on the ring collars of the shafts.
|
At the top of each shadow point he stretches them into ebony spearheads with more silver inlay.
|
There's a lot of silver work in this cue, and it's very effectively throughout the design.
|
He expertly wraps the handle with a piece of black elephant ear leather.
| |
The hard rock maple in the nose is nicely toned and figured.
|
The points are long, even, and very sharp.
|
|
He builds it with a white Juma joint to match the white Juma butt cap.
|
His PK logo is engraved in the butt cap. (He uses these initials of his son as his logo.)
| |
It's built with a 3/8 X 10 steel pin in a flat-faced joint. It weighs 19.05 with either shaft (15.3, 3.75, 3.75) and is 58 inches long. Both shafts are maple with Juma ferrules and LePro tips.
|
| It comes with a pretty matching set of joint caps of ebony and white Juma. This is a very snazzy cue from a solid, up and coming cue maker who's work is going to continue to improve and impress, with increasing values as time goes on. He's also a very good player who knows how to build a cue that plays extremely well.
