[Naed63]

Has anybody any info on Sherwood cues ( not cuecraft Sherwood) these cues have an emblem with 3 circles in a triangle on the butt.

They look very average 80's 90's style cues, that people are asking a lot of money for imo.

If thats the knd of cue you're looking for i.e. a two piece centre jointed you would be better off with Cue Craft and probably only need to pay half that for one. Cue Craft are decent quality.

Keep an eye on this one....https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/256802971...Bk9SR-7-qOqcZQ

Any more suggestions?

Personally I prefer a 3/4 split cue, about as easy to carry and better quality cue and shaft and ability to add extensions etc in the butt. There are a few in the same price bracket you were looking at too.

What's your budget?

[Naed63]

About £80, possibly £100

This is a really nice example of a Riley Dufferin cue, they had quality joints and used very good Canadian maple. Back in the day Thorburn, Stevens & Werbenuik used Dufferin cues.

I reckon this one will reach £50+. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/356550684382

Or if you prefer ash, this is quite a good bargain, another decent quality 2 piece.

Thank you, I'll check them out 👍

Tell me more about the Toilet Dufferin, was it made by Riley for Dufferin or the other way around. I've always fancied a maple cue at this price it would be a good opportunity.

Typing error sorry (Riley)

They were made under license by Dufferin in Canada for Riley. The partnership arose from the influx and popularity of the Canadian players around at thar time. That's all I know.
