The grains don't look too good imo (lots but uneven) and the willow I'd guess would be quite a low grade. But I bet you're now going to tell me who it belonged to or show a profile pic of a massive bat.

Forgot to add that Gumpert has 40mm edges and is made in the UK, air dried willow too.
GT Bomber has 39mm edges, made in UK, air dried willow and weighs in at 2.11 with a single grip under the spiral.
Mjolnir Storm is a custom made to an upcoming shape, made in UK, air dried at 2.10.
Redback Monster is a mere 2.12, made in Devon which has applied to join UK, air dried.
Laver Firefly, Stunning bat, custom made to specs completely different to mine, 2.14, made in New Zealand.

What shape is the Storm? From the profile pic it seems like a standard Mjolnir profile?
