Britannia Skybolt 57" 1-Piece Hand-Spliced 8 Ball Pool Cue

The Britannia Skybolt 8 Ball Pool Cue is a premium full-length 57" (145cm) 1-piece cue, combining traditional hand-spliced craftsmanship with quality materials to deliver excellent stability, precision, and cue ball control.

Part of the Britannia 8 Ball pool cue range, the Skybolt features a beautifully crafted hand-spliced Black Ebony butt, incorporating four natural Sycamore veneers with four Lemon Burl hand splices. The carefully selected combination of exotic woods creates a distinctive and elegant appearance while maintaining the traditional craftsmanship associated with Britannia cues.

The full-length 57" cue is manufactured from strong, stiff North American ash, carefully selected to provide excellent straightness, solidity, and consistency. This construction makes the Skybolt a reliable choice for players looking for a cue capable of meeting the demands of increasingly skilled UK 8 Ball pool.

Fitted with a Grand 8–8.5mm tip and a high-tensile machined Brass ferrule, the Skybolt is designed specifically for the smaller UK pool balls. The narrower tip provides excellent control and precision, making it well suited to positional play and shots requiring accurate cue ball placement.

As a 1-piece cue, the Skybolt has no shaft-to-butt joint, providing a solid and uninterrupted construction from tip to butt. The absence of a joint gives the cue a traditional feel while maintaining the strength and solidity expected from a quality Britannia pool cue.

Each cue is completed with the distinctive engraved Britannia Mother of Pearl badge, adding an elegant finishing touch and providing a signature mark of Britannia quality.

Enhanced Reach with Included Mini Butt

Despite being a 1-piece cue, the Britannia Skybolt features a practical base-of-butt joint, allowing the included 6-inch weighted mini butt to be fitted when additional reach is required.

When attached to the base of the cue, the mini butt provides an additional 6 inches (15cm) of reach, making it particularly useful for awkward shots where extra length is required. It helps players avoid overstretching while maintaining a comfortable and controlled stance.

The mini butt can also provide additional versatility when playing in different environments, making the Skybolt a practical choice for players who want the solid feel of a 1-piece cue while still having the option of extra reach.

For even greater flexibility, the Britannia Mini Spacer is also available separately.

Best of all, the 6-inch weighted mini butt is included in the purchase price, giving you added versatility without the need to purchase an extension separately.
