I have 3 bats sat behind me on my office, all from different brands and all exactly the same blade length. I don't see that a tolerance of the margin here is acceptable on a hand made bat, least not from someone who constantly puts the boot into other companies for the quality of what they produce

Couldn�t agree more.

If the overall bat size is correct then there may be small tolerance between handle and blade sizes, however the point here I think is that the bat itself is overall shorter and therefore not a sh bat, it�s a ssh length bat or a Harrow length bat.

I think I agree.

For me personally, the first sign of a harrow bat is its face width - if it�s 106 or 104 mm then I don�t care what�s the total length of the bat, it�s not for me.

If the face width is 108 mm then I am ok with a little bit of tolerance in the length.

I havent seen may (if any) complain about the quality of his bats or the way they perform but rather about his sometimes over-zealous slating of other makers or the te hniques they choose to use. Lead with your chin and it will get hit occasionally.
