Yes, I know these have been done before. However the industry is moving forward so fast and new fads are appearing, so I thought we can take a look again.
So come on boys and girls, post pics of your favourite profiles for us to salivate over! I shall post mine once I have wrestled the laptop off my daughter.
-
I've already done mine ;)

Two profiles are Salix Falx and a take on the Michael Clarke profile. The Falx just wins it due to the amount of wood in the hitting area. I love a high middle.

The SS full profile is my favourite profile at the moment.
I have two bats here, both in the full profile. The swell extends slightly further down the blade on one (or one has a bigger duckbill if you prefer!)

Is that the harrow width mullinator that sold before Dave could post pictures?

Very pretty indeed. Can't wait to get mine knocked in and into the nets :)

Nope - it's a wonderful B3 Butterfly - I'm afraid you'll have to ask Dave what the profile number is, but it's very nice and it picks up well. Weighs about 2.9lbs I think, with a cracking middle.

Yeah looks very tasty that dean mate.
Here are my bats (what are left).
Red ink is my very first RPC had it a long time now and still bangs like crazy.
RK is my Blueroom LE. I let Ryan do some weight reduction on it this year and he's done a great job with the toe and spine to keep the sweetspot massive. Apologies for image quality

Very classy indeed. Stickers look great. :)

Apparently mine has a special number that isn't on the handle, so you have to ask Dave nicely.
That means I'm very special - like a Pro really :)

For me the BB doesn't really have a duckbill, it's still a nice shape though. The MRF is the perfect example of a duck bill shape. Bet the pickups lovely.

Oh yeah Dave - it looks like a Duck Dodgers of a bat!

Lovely looking bat that, even better with the square toe.

Beautiful bats. Next "en vogue" profile is here and it is the high-middle, high spine bat profile which will be used by pros all over.

It's magical fairy-dust Test Grade willow from a specially under-sized cleft, sourced from an eco-friendly willow-Troll forest in Canada.
It's a model called 'The Mallard' from a new company called It's NOT Cricket!
Only problem is, they got the frikkin edge stamp the wrong way round!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
what weight is it?
-
By all accounts just under 2.8lbs - I got it due to my dicky elbow.
Should be with me Sat / Mon so I'll check the weight.
-
Knew I'd seen this before! I know where you got it now ;)

Yes, that's right Cammus, from a willow-Troll forest in Canada. Supplied by a little willow-Troll from his enormous sack.
Just like I said!
