Predator Limited Edition Artisan Ebony & Ivorine Pool Cue

The Predator Limited Edition Artisan Ebony & Ivorine Pool Cue: A Collector’s Masterpiece

The Predator Limited Edition Artisan Ebony & Ivorine Pool Cue represents the pinnacle of handcrafted cue artistry, combining rare materials with precision engineering in a production run limited to just 150 cues worldwide. This exclusive offering delivers uncompromising quality for discerning players and collectors who appreciate fine craftsmanship.

Premium Ebony Forearm with Spliced Ivorine Points

The butt of this Artisan cue showcases deep, lustrous Gabon ebony paired with hand-spliced Ivorine in a distinctive 8-point design. Each Ivorine point features authentic silver metal outlines that highlight the natural grain and craftsmanship of the wood. This combination creates a striking visual presentation while delivering the weight and balance characteristics serious players demand.

The Predator Artisan Ebony Ivorine construction reflects decades of cue-making expertise. The spliced design isn’t merely decorative: it provides structural integrity and allows for precise weight distribution. Ivorine, a premium synthetic material, mirrors the aesthetic qualities of traditional bone while offering superior durability and consistency.

• Gabon ebony forearm with rich chocolate grain
• 8 spliced Ivorine points with silver metal outlines
• Matching Ivorine collar at the joint
• Hand-finished to exacting Predator standards
• Limited to 150 cues produced worldwide

TrueSplice Construction & Radial Pin Design

This limited edition Predator pool cue ebony incorporates the renowned TrueSplice construction method, which ensures seamless integration between the butt and shaft. The radial pin connection, known as the Uni-Loc Radial joint, provides a consistent, repeatable connection that withstands thousands of shots while maintaining alignment and feedback.

The radial pin design represents Predator’s commitment to precision engineering. Unlike conventional pin systems, the radial geometry distributes stress evenly across the joint interface, extending cue longevity and maintaining the connection’s integrity throughout the life of the cue. Players experience enhanced feedback and confidence in their stroke mechanics.

Weight Adjustable Butt with P3 Bolt System

The Predator P3 weight adjustment system allows you to customize total cue weight to your exact specifications. This Predator LE Artisan Ebony Ivorine butt accommodates weights from 18.5 oz to 20 oz, giving you complete control over feel and performance. Simply adjust the bolt inside the butt, and you’re ready to shoot.

Weight adjustability addresses one of the most personal aspects of cue selection. Different playing styles, table conditions, and grip strengths all benefit from different weight profiles. With the P3 system, you can fine-tune your cue once and maintain that exact specification indefinitely.

Luxurious Black Lizard Grain Leather Wrap

The wrap on the Artisan Ebony & Ivorine cue features genuine black lizard grain leather, providing superior grip in all conditions. This premium material offers tactile feedback while maintaining consistent traction whether your hands are dry or lightly perspiring. The leather wrap extends 6 inches below the joint, covering the standard bridge area.

Black lizard grain leather represents the highest tier of wrap materials. Its natural surface variation creates micro-grip patterns that enhance contact with your bridge hand. Unlike synthetic wraps, genuine leather develops a patina over time, improving grip characteristics with age and use.

Limited Edition: Only 150 Made Worldwide

Production of the Predator Artisan Series ebony ivorine is strictly limited to 150 cues total. This constraint reflects both the scarcity of premium Gabon ebony and Predator’s commitment to exclusivity. Each cue carries a serial number documenting its place in the production run, adding to its collectibility and value.

Limited edition Predator cues have historically appreciated in value, particularly among serious players and collectors. The combination of restricted availability, superior materials, and handcrafted construction creates long-term desirability. Whether you’re building a personal collection or investing in a statement piece, this cue delivers both immediate playing pleasure and lasting worth.

Choose Your Predator Shaft

The beauty of the Artisan Ebony & Ivorine system is shaft interchangeability. The Uni-Loc Radial joint accepts multiple Predator shaft options, each with distinct playing characteristics. Select the shaft and tip combination that matches your game and preferences.

Available Shaft Options:

• REVO Carbon Pool Shaft: Available in 11.8mm, 12.4mm, or 12.9mm diameters. Carbon technology delivers consistent performance and minimal deflection.
• Centro Hybrid Pool Shaft: 12.4mm diameter. Hybrid construction balances traditional feel with modern technology.
• 314-3 Spliced Maple Pool Shaft: 12.75mm diameter. Classic spliced maple construction with traditional playing characteristics.
• Z-3 Spliced Maple Pool Shaft: 11.85mm diameter. Sleek spliced design with reduced diameter for enhanced control.
• Vantage Spliced Maple Pool Shaft: 12.9mm diameter. Premium spliced maple with maximum feedback and traditional cue action.

Tip Selection Matters:

Your choice of tip dramatically influences cue performance. Predator offers multiple hardness options to match your stroke and preferences:

• Predator Victory Hard, Medium, and Soft: Predator’s proprietary tip technology with three hardness grades.
• Kamui Black Hard, Medium, Soft, and Super Soft: Premium imported tips offering four distinct hardness profiles for maximum customization.

Softer tips provide increased spin potential and expanded sweet spot, ideal for draw and English applications. Harder tips deliver crisp contact and reduced deflection on power shots. Medium options balance these characteristics for all-around play.

Understanding the Predator Artisan Series

The Artisan Series represents Predator’s highest expression of individual cue craftsmanship. Unlike production models manufactured to consistent specifications, Artisan cues emphasize exotic materials, hand-finishing, and design uniqueness. The Predator Artisan Series ebony ivorine with silver outlines exemplifies this philosophy through its striking visual presentation and premium component selection.

Each Artisan cue undergoes rigorous quality inspection before leaving the factory. Predator’s craftspeople verify joint alignment, wrap attachment, weight accuracy, and finish quality. This meticulous attention ensures that every limited edition Predator ebony ivorine cue meets exacting performance and aesthetic standards.
