Title: My match bat 2016 SS made Custom Shape
Post by: SRH on March 24, 2016, 11:35:39 PM

Just thought I would share with you a recent acquisition, this bat was originally made for Hanif at Eclipse all Sport, a custom made SS, in the CK22 shape  ;) he inexplicably decided against keeping the bat and I couldn't pass up the opportunity! He also knocked the bat in and applied a face sheet and tape superbly. I currently have around 10 bats including a BB/TK Performance lam, B3 3 stripe mull and H4l custom shape that was destined for Matt Coles. The best thing about this bat is the pick up, despite the low middle it feels like a wand, the middle is also as good as any bat I have ever owned. The only downside is that the sweet spot isn't quite as long or as wide as the previously mentioned bats. Specs are below.

Manufacturer: SS
Shape: CK22
Weight: 2.11
Edge size: 43mm
Spine height: 66mm
Toe: 22mm

Just need to get hold of some M&H stickers now  ;)

Lovely looking bat mate, 2lb11 isn't light but you've certainly got a lot of wood for the weight

Thanks mate, I was hoping for some of the international stickers :P yea I don't buy into all this feels like a 2.9 ect. But the balance to me is perfect, just feels lovely in the hands.

Maybe it is the camera angle, but the peak edge seems lower than the M&H CK22.

Looks like a regular SS shApe to me. The CK22 has a distinct spine all the way into the toe. Great looking bat though.
