By chance I was there when it turned up and it is very very nice. There is also a very good eve le that I had to force myself not to buy. Asad certainly gets top bats and plenty to choose from at the mo.

I'm impressed that the finished bat has more grains than it in cleft form, looks very very nice.

Pick up was good and a nice size. I usually use a 2lb 12oz bat so the lighter bats all ways feel a good pick up. I think you will be really pleased with it. I would buy it without question if it was the spec of bat I use

I don't know the proper terms but perhaps the wood coat was there and when they shave the face a bit it makes it cleaner.

Many thanks for your post, I certainly appreciate it! Am too excited that it becomes hard to control yourself, however bat was shipped today so lets hope it comes safely!

The grains don't change unless you cut an inch off the face, more likely your bat is not the same on as the cleft picture.

Ahh okay, doesn't really bother me as long it picks up well and perform well!

Apart from that I wanted big profile which I got so no worries at my end :D

I would say they look better than the ones in the cleft picture.
