Title: Long Blade Bats
Post by: Toby Collins on December 03, 2013, 08:11:18 PM
I have a wonderful bat a Newbury Zeus Long blade which weighed in at 3lb 8oz until I had a inch cut off the toe and now comes in at 3lb6oz , It might sound awful but for me its pick up and balance are perfect, and when it is hit it stays hit . My fear is that it will come to the end of it's days and I wonder is there any one making Long Blade bats anymore,  and probably might be a bit lighter ?
I look forward to your advise

Have these 2 long blade bats in stock. Both are 2lbs 11oz. Bat on the left is £170 and the bat on the right is £155 due to there being slight dents in the edge. Nothing major but I would not be happy selling it at full rate

Matt

Got to put a word in for Matt here - I've had a couple of long bladed bats off him and they have both been absolute corkers!
