Perhaps just sand it down so it's not dangerous? Shouldn't affect performance considering its position on the bat.

Nothing that ............ sand down the rough edge and put tape around it

more to the point, is that bat a laminate  :o

eeek, the Lam police... Rrruuunnnn!!  :( :D
(Should have mentioned it was a friendly).

It has small pieces of wood suck to the edges to make them bigger but not a Lam in the conventional sense. Was curious about performance more than anything else. Wouldn't use it in a league match ofcourse, oh nooo!! tut tut!!

A couple of effortless sixes but no real benefit over my other mid range bats.

In terms of the damage, I agree it shouldn't be a worry (unless I try to chase a wide ball again...) but I think it needs some glue? (And before the sirens start blaring again, I intend to use it in our annual club 6-a-side).

Weighs 2.11 by the way.
