Title: bb net / wet weather bats
Post by: Blank Bats on January 02, 2016, 02:05:16 PM: Happy New Year to one and all.

Having a clear out.
These bats are very similar to the MC Spartan shape.
Grade 3/4 English willow
Would be perfect for team kit bags, or even perhaps a net / wet weather bat. You never know, they make even make the cut to be your main bat.
Naked weights are 2.6, 2.8, 2.8 and 2.9, price is £95 posted within mainland UK.
First come first served.

If interested reply via pm please.

Title: Re: bb net / wet weather bats
Post by: Blank Bats on January 03, 2016, 07:51:19 AM: They all have the usual oval handle. But not an exaggerated oval if you're asking.
Title: Re: bb net / wet weather bats
Post by: joeljonno on January 03, 2016, 09:38:55 AM: Why are these "net bats"?

Is it just grade of willow, or is there more to it?

Post by: Blank Bats on January 03, 2016, 09:19:49 PM: Only one of these left, on the far right.

jj - nothing more to it, just the grade / appearance of willow.

Post by: WalkingWicket37 on January 03, 2016, 09:50:26 PM: Can someone please hurry up and buy the 2lb9 one!
I keep being drawn to this thread, and that's the bat that got my attention. It will be my weight by the time I've applied my grip set up and a scuff sheet.
It's a beautiful shape and a bargain at that price.

Payment received for the final one.

If there is enough interest at this price point for similar bats then, I may look to do another batch in the future.

(Please could you state if this is something that may be of interest to you?)

Post by: SOULMAN1012 on January 07, 2016, 10:42:22 AM: Just wanted to say big that's to Tai and @Blank Bats. Received mine yesterday. Lovely profile and boy is it's filthy piece of willow if your a bowler, rockets the ball off it tapping it up now so when played in it could be a serious weapon. No reason why couldn't be a match bat

Advertised as "around 2:9.5" and came at 2:9.9 with stickers and one grip. Some slight handmade signs on the back. Squarish toe, with toe guard.

Came with a scuff sheet that I removed. First layer of oil soaked in very quickly. Going to put a second coat on in the morning.

Taps up nicely, will start knocking in at the weekend.

I always thought they were a bit too minimal, but seeing these in the flesh, I think they are spot on.
