Have been really impressed with the collective knowledge on the forum, so I hoping I can tap into it for some advise.
Looking for a new bat, know what I like but not sure where if find it.
Wants
mid to low low middle
semi oval handle
full(ish) profile
weight 2.7 and Half to 2.8 and a bit, has to pick up well even with the low middle
not concern about edge size or looks of willow would prefer a ugly blade which goes
am I dreaming? or is the bat available?
suggestions please

Paul Aldred butterfly, maybe silver sovereign profile. Never had a bad one can't go wrong for 170 quid.

Devils officially start at 2'10, the odd 2'9 but mostly 2'10+
@well past my peak
Virtually anything is possible, the key question is how much you are looking to spend? Our custom made package from Hunts might be worth a look, we've done the odd 2'7 with smaller edges. You can even have the bat made in front of you at no extra cost.

I can make something to those specs pretty easily. Drop me a pm if you want to discuss.
Forum discounts and free uk postage at the moment too (uk postage cost deducted from international orders)

Where in the world are you based?

There's been some nice Red Inks on here recently can't really go wrong with one also as aJohn as already pointed out he can quite easily make you a bat to your specs.

Id suggest talking to John at Red Ink.
He could probably custom make this shape in his G3 wood (which is still decent looking) for a very competitive price.

home of next Ashes owners ;)

Good to see some sensible suggestions for a change, usually people start suggesting overweight high middled bats in this scenario.
You say you are based where the next Ashes winners are, so you are in Yorkshire then?
