Interesting observation. I've done a quick search and this is the Rapier profile against mine:



I'd say that you had that spot on!

Unless someone who knows better (and I'd suggest that might be thebigginge) says otherwise. It's the only GN I've seen with the duck-bill at the toe.

Where the stickers have ben removed off the back are a little confusing though... Does look a little like the Elite from around 91/92

Agreed, except that the Elite had stickers down the back as in the picture below and there is no sign of them having been on the bat, and the colours on the chequered area were dark red and black.



There was an Australian Elite more recently, but it has a different side-on profile and top of bat stickers.
