  1. Casey E. –

    I’ve always played with low

    In my experience, i’ve always played with low level cues and played pretty well. However, with my new Viking cue I’ve notice a drastic improvement in my aim and game.

  2. Mary N. –

    Beautiful pool cue Looks even better

    Attractive stick! Looks even better in hand. The design has a metallic shine when held to the light. I normally shoot with cues that are less than $100, therefore I’m used to a fair amount of deflection. This Vikore shaft is robust. I’m learning all over again. I’ve managed to throw together a few wins with my friends and I’m looking forward to more durable play with this new Viking cue. Truly extremely satisfied!

  3. Casey A. –

    Nice-looking cue. Plays wonderfully.

    Quick delivery with custom wrap and tip. Came out gorgeous. Handles fantastic and was delivered in extremely sturdy shipping tube with signiture required. Felt really reassured in its safe handling as this was a gift. Will definitely look here first for my billiard needs.

Questions about this cue

What joint does the Viking VIK520 Cue use?

It uses a Viking Quick Release joint. That means any Viking Quick Release shaft will thread straight onto this butt, so you can add a spare or upgrade later without changing cues. If you are matching a shaft you already own, check its pin against Viking Quick Release before ordering — joints are not cross-compatible.

What shaft diameter is the Viking VIK520 Cue?

This cue ships with a 13.00mm shaft. Thinner shafts put more spin on the cue ball and feel crisper through the stroke; larger diameters feel fuller and are more forgiving on off-centre hits. Neither is better — it comes down to how you like the cue to hit.

Is this a carbon fiber or wood shaft cue?

The Viking VIK520 Cue comes with a Classic Wood shaft. Carbon fiber will not warp, ignores humidity and deflects less; quality maple gives the traditional feel a lot of players still prefer. Both play at a high level, so pick the one that matches how you want the cue to feel.

What is the Viking VIK520 Cue built for?

It is set up as a playing cue. Playing cues are balanced for control on shot-making, break cues are heavier with a harder tip for power transfer, and jump cues are short and light to get the cue ball airborne. Using the right one also protects your playing cue from break wear.

What kind of grip does it have?

The grip is linen wrap. Irish linen wicks sweat and stays tacky, leather is plush and premium, and a no-wrap finish is fast and needs no maintenance. If your hands run warm, linen is usually the safer pick.

Is Quarter King an authorized Viking dealer?

Yes. We are an authorized Viking dealer, so this cue is genuine and carries the full manufacturer warranty against warpage and defects in workmanship. Warranty claims go through us — you do not have to deal with the factory yourself.

How fast does it ship, and can I return it?

Shipping is free on orders over $98 in the contiguous US, $5.50 flat otherwise, and you get tracking as soon as it moves. Returns are accepted within 30 days of delivery on unchalked, unused product — contact us first for a return authorization so it is credited without delay.
