So who developed Hand Splicing?

[narl]

According to peradon they did, its featured in their marketing blurb video:

That being said im pretty sure hand spliced cues existed before peradon started making cues, Burroughes & Watts were making cues decades before Peradon even came into being iirc. Was there a technique that preceeded the wide \ narrow splice technique, maybe thats what theyre laying claim to?

There's a thread on here asking what kind of cue Joe Davis used, so I guess this answers the question.

If you listen carefully they don't say they invented cue splicing in general, just 'their own method'. Inferring they have the best method but of course it's not any different from any other cuemaker.

They do say they "developed" it though (marketing guff), was interested to see if any other method existed besides the one thats used today with the narrow \ wide splice method.

Who perfected it is the more important thing. I mean even splicing top and bottom.
