Genuine inlays, intricate designs and superior craftsmanship thrive in the awesome Viking F01 pool cue. Ebony, turquoise and ivory colored inlays are precisely set into Birdseye Maple and covered with a UV polyurethane coating to protect the cue and prevent fading. The wood is aged 18-24 months in a climate controlled environment and turned over a minimum of nine times and checked for warping during that time period. The result is a straight cue with structural integrity. Beyond its gorgeous appearance, you'll appreciate the awesome cue ball control and shot accuracy that comes from the proprietary ferrule, as well as the soft hit due to the wood-to-wood joint.In business since 1965, Viking is the oldest manufacture of cue sticks made in the USA. With the exception of the tips, weight bolts and bumpers, Viking manufactures all of the materials used to make their cues. Pro players including Dawn Hopkins, Denny Coulter and Larry Nevel play with Viking cues.Weight Changes: Viking cues have a changeable weight system.
