Joss 2047

Description

The Black Dagger Cue showcases one of the most distinctive designs in the Joss lineup.
At first glance, the fourteen black dagger inlays create a bold visual statement while maintaining the classic elegance that players expect from Joss Cues.
Because the design emphasizes contrast rather than excessive ornamentation, the cue stands out without appearing flashy.

The forearm and butt sleeve both feature beautiful figured maple.
As a result, the natural grain creates depth and movement throughout the cue.
Furthermore, the black dagger inlays draw attention to the wood’s character while adding a unique personality inspired by the clean lines of traditional craftsmanship.

Figured Maple and Black Dagger Details

The Black Dagger Cue begins with carefully selected figured maple chosen for both beauty and performance.
Before any wood enters production, we evaluate its density, grain structure, and stability.
Therefore, only premium materials are used in a Joss cue.

The rear sleeve continues the same design theme while adding white maple diamonds outlined in black.
Consequently, these elements create exceptional contrast between light and dark.
The combination of bright maple, deep black inlays, and natural grain produces a timeless appearance that remains attractive year after year.

Because wood develops naturally, every cue displays its own unique grain pattern and visual character.

Traditional Feel and Lasting Performance

To complement the striking design, we finish the cue with a hand-pressed natural Irish linen wrap accented by traditional green specks.
Not only does the wrap provide a secure grip, but it also delivers the traditional feel serious players appreciate.
Additionally, players may choose an upgraded cowhide leather wrap embossed to resemble exotic skins.

We also hand-polish every stainless-steel joint to a mirror finish.
Consequently, the cue delivers crisp feedback, exceptional durability, and a refined appearance.

Full-Core Construction Advantage

Beyond its appearance, the Black Dagger Cue delivers the performance that has made Joss famous for generations.

Joss full-core construction extends from the butt plate to the joint.
As a result, the cue offers superior structural integrity, excellent warpage control, and the solid one-piece feel that experienced players consistently praise.

Furthermore, the core improves energy transfer throughout the cue.
Therefore, players enjoy dependable feedback, greater consistency, and a superior hit on every shot.

The result is a cue that performs with confidence while maintaining exceptional balance and control.
