Title: RNS replica in Virat Kohli shape
Post by: joymarvin on July 21, 2016, 09:49:46 AM
Hi Gents - Got this bat from RNS via Facebook for my Bday which was initially without stickers. Since it had a green grip, I notified him to put on green stickers to complement the same. The pickup/balance is good and the response (while tapping it up) is quiet good as well even though the bat is still not knocked in. I look forward to using this bat in the nets once its knocked in after the summers ends in Dubai next month.

Weight - 2.9
Edges - 41mm
Spine - No idea
Pickup & Balance - Good
Ping - Good ping
Grains - 10
Profile - Slight concaved with a duckbill toe

Enjoy the pics

Well, put simply - I am excited by the camouflage grip - I like that sort of thing.

Then A stepped in with an 'hilarious' joke about not being able to see it due to it's camouflaging effect - he is a real 'shining wit'.

We are both glad to have bought about a positive influence to this thread.

Lovely looking Stick. RNS bats come with a toe guard usually.

Most of the bats he uploads on FB does not have a toe guard. I might be wrong but mine didn't.

Lovely bat! But that is surely not the VK profile. Also VK's bats have a square toe and not a curved one like this bat.

Since RNS does not have a CNC machine to replicate the exact same profile from the shoulders to the toe, I would not blame them since they are all made by hands. On FB, he does mention its a VK profile for all bats he uploads, and they are slightly different from each other. Its a great bat never the less and its a lovely famous shape.

Didnt mean to offend you...I love the profile of the bat and the quality of RNS bats is generally great....and yes, you are right; RNS do seem to upload every other bat on FB mentioning that it is the VK profile.

Nice stick but I agree with the other poster - this is not the VK profile. This is stock standard profile on most RNS these days. More of a Dhoni profile than Kohli
