Just found these chips. Weird how they have "World Series of Poker" and "Binion's Horseshoe" on them? I guess since the manufacturer is not a casino supplier they don't have to respect the WSOP and Binion trademarks?
That's the Tangiers' chip mold, I guess they couldn't sell as that so why not digress. But they would have to pay the copyright fee, or so you would think?

Nope, not the Tangiers' mold. The Tangiers has five prongs, these have four (I have a sample set of these).
Yep, they're made of brass, and weigh in at 14-18 grams (depending on denom, strangely enough). The colored parts are plastic, not paint.
If your behind in the chip count you can always wing one of these badboys, talk about knocking someone out! I wouldn't have these ugly things in my house.
Sandman...that's killer! Just hope not to suck-out on someone who's a hot-head (like myself) when these are at the table. Can you imagine the damage one of these Binyon's Ninja Chips can do? Wow!
