one in the photo is 2lb 12oz with stickers and a grip, it has 14/15 ruler straight grains and a 99% clean face- bat perfection.  it might be available for the right price.

£200 gets a Shadow made specially for you, whatever weight you want.

The show bat isn't really for sale.  Of course everything is for sale at the right price, but it'd have to be a good offer as it is cricket bat perfection, and is rather nice to look at.  We don't have a room full of bats in stock though, as our bats are made to order, hence why we don't have bats 'lying around'.

depending on what goes on in the next couple of days, an order may well be coming your way ;)

oh and i want a 14lb one ;)

So am I right in saying that the "show" bat isn't really a Shadow because the Shadows are selling for £200 and therefore this would be a higher grade willow than is set aside for the Shadow range?

Sorry for being pedantic just trying to understand what grade of willow I would be getting

No, I'm just not sure I want to sell the 'show' bat.

£200 buys you what £240 buys you on our website- a top performing bat made from grade one willow selected from our own plantation, made especially for you.

If the willow comes from your own tree, am I right in saying you should have another few 15 grain beauties like the one photographed? Are they £200 and do you do them blank?

Yes in the pile there will be some like that, and we've had a fair few already made that look like that.

Your not wrong about the Joker being popular Charlie! Perhaps I should have ordered a couple lol. Can't wait to get home and get a hold of mine though.....might even get a few more ordered once the lads on my team see it!

I don't have a spare £200 at the moment, but i can safely say this bat has seriously sexed me up. If I had the cash I'd be camping outside Chaz's door.

Love the profile, love the stickers. I think you might be on to a winner here Charlie-poos.
