Is this is a rare collectors item because it doesn't weigh 2lb15 like other Solitaires? Does look very nice though

indeed, having said that i've never used a solitaire before so only going on what others are saying. feels very nice though and the finishing is very good.

Very nice looking bat but why rare and by collectors you mean you will be keeping it on display and not using in matches?

no mate, most people who buy a solitaire have ordered a 2'9 and a 2'13 arrived.
collectors item is a bit of tongue and cheek

Just a quick update on this. anyone who is thinking about getting a solitaire all I can say is go for it. this bat performs as good as any I've used Inc. my slaz players. I've already contacted them re a replica being made. I can not fault this bat in anyway.
