It was actually a gift from my wife who arranged the whole trip to Chase cricket. I believe it cost an additional 10% of the selling price of the bat for a custom one and going to the workshop. So £270 + 10% for an R11.

Many thanks for your prompt reply :)

That is indeed a cracking price for a stunning bat.

Chase continue to impress me

That's correct. My FLC was 10% on top. Think Dan's working on the new price list now.

I saw Dan at a local show recently and got my son a size 5 FLC (which is not a usual size so I had to wait a week or so).  It is a lovely bat, a lot of wood and still only just over 2lb (even has his initials on the shoulder).  It should last 2 seasons so is a good investment.  A sticker on the bat says it is "80% prepared", do I just need to do a bit of light mallet work on the face and keep him to soft net balls for a while?

don't bother with "light mallet work" spend half an hour smashing (thumping really hard!) it with the mallet then it will be good to go with some soft balls... don't forget to roll the edges with a rolling pin or on the bath tub too

Did you buy it at the Serious Cricket open day they did? I heard it was very well attended? One of the guys said they sold a lot of bats.

As for knocking in, what Buzz said!

I have a Chase myself, great bats.....got another on it's way as well, you've started your son off very well!

Well, if my next one is as nice as my current one then I'm sure we might be able to arrange something Fattus!

Thanks for the replies, I'll get the mallet going (and the rolling pin!).  We got it at a Cook and Matthews show at Orpington CC.  He is in his 3rd season with a size 4 Chase 175 Beluga (which is starting to look a bit small) so is hooked on Chase willow already.  Happy for Dan to sponsor him!
