K2 KL95 Low Deflection Smoke Cue

Low deflection is the reason to look at the K2 KL95. Its K2 low-deflection maple shaft is meant to cut cue ball deflection on off-centre hits, which makes this low deflection pool cue a sensible step up for players moving on from a basic playing cue and wanting more control from the same stroke. It comes from the K2 by Koda range, where cues pair that shaft with a Uni-Loc quick-release joint.

The shaft is built with True Path technology and measures 29 inches, finished with a 12.5 mm Tiger Everest laminated leather tip; an 11.75 mm tip is also offered. A Uni-Loc quick-release joint connects it to the butt, which carries a 10 mm matte black collar, a black Implex butt cap and a compression bumper.

Grey smoke is the finish on the KL95, a matte graphic spanning the forearm and butt sleeve against a matte black wrapless handle. Weights from 18 to 21 oz are available, and a 10-year warranty that includes warpage comes with the cue.
