TimeOut

. . . made from a solid section of purpleheart . . . . . . with red palm forearm and butt. The shaft is made from grenadillo . . . . . . fitted with a G-10 ferrule and a laminated hard Kamuii tip, optimal for breaking. Bob had a grenadillo dowel in his sh...  

I just love the bespoke design and craftsmanship.

. . . to appreciate their quality, Cap. ;-)

. . . and hanging out at pool halls and bars. She'll buy you the table.
