Genuine Robert Pack?
« on: October 24, 2016, 08:26:31 AM »

Hi guys,

I've seen a Robert Pack Heritage on "e" and was wondering whether anyone could verify if it's genuine.

The Heritage description says the bat is knocked in but having looked at the bottom of the toe it seems to be untouched ie no oil, toe guard, shoo goo.

I did ask the seller re the toe guard and haven't had a response as yet.

Thanks

Could be wrong but I thought that all Rob Pack bats leave the workshop knocked in?

On the pic posted by the seller, the heritage description states that the heritage is knocked in.

Unless I've completely missed something the bottom toe pic looks as if it hasn't been touched.

RP bats leave knocked in but in my experience they do require a bit more knocking in. RP also uses is "special brew" for the oiling but i always oil further when i get the bat and they seem to soak up at least 1 coat

Don't think RP bats have toe guards. Most classy bats don't!

Yeah I'd definitely spend a bit more time knocking it in to make sure it's gonna withstand playing in
