Is there any significance to the number 23 in the badge with your birthday on it? Nice design anyway
RG, I think that number is probably his age.
I did not know it was bro 4's bd gift, it is about 2 months late I am sure it is worth the wait though.
I have never seen such a fancy cue from Robin Cook before.

Didn't think about age, I didn't notice the cue had 2009 on it instead of date of birth.
It's probably a little stereotypical of me, as I'm sure Robin must do some fancy cues that I have not seen, but I generally associate Robin with simpler designs using woods like Tulipwood, or cocobolo, or that becote main butt for instance. It's probably just certain things sticking in my head more than others, but I would associate Robin moire with the cocobolo cue posted a page or two back, or I've seen some beautiful cues with 4 splices of Tulipwood over ebony butt from Robin.

Actually I can totally relate to that "sterotype." In my mind, Robin Cooks always have some brown exotic wood butts, for whatever reason.
I think that date on the badge is his birthday, and "23" is his age.
[QUOTE=RGCirencester;462079]Well the cue new was 160 with the tulipwood mini butt. But now it has a signed case, and some awesome extensions... And with Paul closing up shop I suppose its a collectors item... So its got to be worth, hmm, a million pounds?
160 is accepted by logic. A million pound is insane LOL

RGC:
23 is my Birthday.Why no one trust me I ONLY 23YRS OLD!!! I born in 1986,and 2009 i was 23.
My concept is...I made a cue each years,and the cue must be the best shaft and the best handcraft from the best cuemaker I think & I love in that year.
As this is a gift for myself,for working hard at the pass years!
Maybe some ppl will think it is a stupid concept,but I just wanna made myself happy~Hahahahahaha~~~~It is funny to made a collection~
23,24,25,26....hope to have 100.
Airin:
Robin told me,he only made cue in 1~4splice.No Fancy Cue!!!
So it really very special for him.and special for Robin Cues 10th anniversary.
