seems to me you just need to pick the one that feels right to you, I agree with Pete and dont see how you can tell if a bats moisture content is high or low by simply looking at it

much like going into a shop and picking out a few of the same model and selecting the one you feel most comfortable with....if you get to pick 2 then even better, I dont see how its confusing really!

I agree with Tom - look at them, test the pick up and go with the one you like the look and feel of the best.
In a choice like this, choose the one that when you hold it gives you the most confidence when you use it.

If they really are the same and you cant choose, put all three up for sale and when two have been sold, keep the other...

Alright guys I am very confused. I have three MB Malik Bubber Sher Limited Edition blades and all three of them are top drawer bats. I had asked for big profile and I got what I had asked for. Once I choose one I will post a review of them. All three of them are in 2.8-2.9 weight range
Thanks

Confused is def the wrong word. You are undecided!!!
For us on the forum to comment on which bat we like the most, we can only do so on cosmetics.
But for us to give you our opinion, we would need to see more detailed pis of the face of the blade to see what the grains are like....and even them I'm sure that you may get a difference in opinion due to some people liking 8-10 grains, other people liking 30 grains....some people liking heartwood, others not, etc!
Therefore to decide which bat is correct for you, I would do as Tom and Buzz advise - all three bats look generous enough for the weight, so there shouldn't be any issue there! So go by how the bat feels your hands! And also tap the bats up with a mallet a little, to see if there is a better response from any one particular bat? But I usually find that how 'comfortable' a bat feels should be the best indication of which bat is best suited?

It's a matter of personal choice, they should all be of similar quality willow so think of pick up and feel etc..., good luck!!
