Just received my new H4L 666 and on first impression - im well pleased. I really liked the 666 profile when i initially saw it and decided to take matt up on his forum offer.
I asked him for a 5 star, 8 -10 grains, 2.8-2.9, with a slightly thicker oval handle. I received exactly what i've asked for - probably more 2.9 ( i dont have a scale, but picks up fine). I haven't played with the bat yet - so i cant comment on that - however, the quality and the finishing really are top notch.
Service - matt was terrific to deal with. Replied to all messages in a timely manner. Posted the bat exactly when he said he would. I got the bat within 4 days in Canada (that is record time). This is also the first H4L in Canada.
I will update this thread once i use the bat - in the mean time, enjoy the pics.

Matt's done a hell of a job on that. 4 days to Canada?! That's ridiculous! Lovely bat as well mate, hope you're happy with it!
-
Glad you like it, 4 days to canada is bloody quick! for once royal mail have done well!

Looks a beauty. I have 2 H4L bats here and agree that both the product and customer service from Matt at H4L is top notch.
-
Superb photos of what is an awesome looking bat, it's a good size for a 2.9 considering it's got the thick spiral grip. I'm a big fan of the H4L shapes and the stickers, look forward to seeing some of the Hattori's!
By the way - website seems to be down???
-
Nice looking bat. Love the profile...you should take up photography up as a profession!!
Mates got a monster 666, best pick up I have ever seen in a bat
-
Ignore what i said Matt - your site is fine, i think i went on the old domain name and that doesnt work......my bad!
-
What a great bat! Looks a really cracking blade and i am very impressed with that! Great work again by Matt
-
I've just bought a second hand H4L Excel. I have to say the finish is excellent & the handle is superb!
-
Glad you like it, 4 days to canada is bloody quick! for once royal mail have done well!

Lovely mate, I'm sure you're very happy with it, as am I with mine!! :) - What is the edge size, out of interest? Looks a belter, let us know how it plays.
-
Hopefully I can sell my bat I have for sale so that I can buy off Matt :)
-
Sure you won't be disappointed ;)
-
Plzzzzzzzzzzz somebody buy my bat!! lol
-
Lovely mate, I'm sure you're very happy with it, as am I with mine!! :) - What is the edge size, out of interest? Looks a belter, let us know how it plays.
not sure what the edge size is, i dont have anythign to measure it with or an english coin. However, in non technical terms, the edges are meaty.
I had a light net today with the bat and I'm very pleased. it should only get better.
-
the edges are 33.2 mm just for you johan
-
Oh cheers Matt! Was just curious, pretty much close to what mine are at 31-32mm. An exact measurement too, very impressive!! :)
-
that's a spectacular bat, you're rightly thrilled. that profile would be very useful in Australia also. I hope to christen it with a ton!
