That's an odd one, if you have the bit just glue it back in

Square the toe off and use it for having a biff
Super bat speed your 20/20 bat

I would clean up the toe, fill the hole with filler or glue the put a toe guard on. you will soon forget about the hole.

Clean it up, whack some gorilla glue in there, let it expand and dry, sand it again then apply a toe guard

How do I get glue in this ? Wouldn't it ooze out ? Should I cut off the toe till the part it's damaged ?
