I remember somebody mentioning Bulldog ST in another topic. Most of the forum batmakers should be able to make you a bat similar to that (and many would have made it previously I believe)

At 2.14 any bat made from top quality willow would look like his. Add a secondary drying process and it becomes even bigger:)

i would disagree and say the bat looks normal sized. with the angle of the pic, it looks bigger due to the face of the bat and edges are not huge

THe M&H master is basically based on this shape and normally in huge weights like this!

M&H Master, Hammer Beserker ST and ST Samurai. H4L Hattori is very similar too, especially in the larger Monster grade.

Newbery Tour supposedly too, although there are a few small differences with that bat...

One of the Indian cricket bat brands PR. They have a FB page as well

I think it is not unreasonable to suggest that even a Tour XL bears absolutely no resemblance to the Tendulkar shape.

in answer to the original question there are many firms which make a Tendulkar shaped bat, but a 2 lbs 14+ bat is tough to use if you aren't used to it.

A lot of the Indian based brands also do specific bats based on ST's shape but I'm not 100% sure on their names  :-[.
