Ok two pre made grade 1 clefts that were made for our photos. 1 gold sovereign and 1 silver sovereign. The gold is really a players grade it just looked so nice for the pics.
Both are 2-12 pick up very good feel 2-10ish easily. Great response these are both going out at £200 each shipped in uk custom bat discount is usually 15% but as they are pre mades I am letting them out at over 20% off. Beautiful bats get in touch via email if you fancy grabbing one first come first serve.

if someone were to ask you for your preferred shape, which one would it be? Velocity?
-
Tough question as I like making all of them for different reasons. I love the gold and silver shapes now as they have evolved the more i have made, they are a lovely looking bat. The supreme I think is a lovely flowing looking shape and has been very very popular, and the velocity I love because of the traditional shape it has and the pick up of it is incredible. I have been using the supreme over the last couple of years and got on very well with it, and it's lasted very well too. I think I am going to make up either a velocity or gold I reckon for the coming season as well.
On another note
I have actually had a cleft today that had a slight fault at the toe of the bat once I had started shaping up and have cut it out as it was right at the toe, so if any of you out there are of the shorter height it has a slightly shorter blade 1/2" actually but its a beauty velocity shape grade 2 I will let that go for £180 if no one wants it I will use it to be fair. Here's a pic in its shaped state it's weighing in at 2-8 in present form

Hi Paul are any of these bats still available mate?
-
The silver is still available. Someone said they wanted it and reserved it but they never materialised
