The Blak5 1 is the fifth generation of Predator's flagship Blak series, a high-end playing cue built on an ebony forearm and butt sleeve. It carries four long curly maple inlay points with ivorine and polished alloy details, four short ivorine points, alternating alloy and ivorine rings, a leather luxe wrap and a teardrop stainless steel butt cap. It suits collectors and serious players who want a heirloom-grade cue with Predator's Uni-Loc weight cartridge system for tuning balance. Against production cues it stands out for handcrafted inlay work and exotic ebony; against custom shop cues it offers Predator's interchangeable-shaft ecosystem rather than a one-off build.

Owners of the Blak series describe it as a showpiece that also plays well, praising the inlay work and the solid feel of the ebony construction. Most criticism centers on the cost and on the leather wrap's upkeep rather than on performance.
