Hi Deano

I got my Legend from Yash, who in turn got in a very good trade.
The cheapest I've seen them is around £275 or there abouts.
I can only really speak for the Legend I have - it is a stonker with a great middle!!!
Pickup is very good and it feels excellent! I've only used it once so can't comment on long term issues!
I love the stickers and the willow is superb and very large and chunky for the weight.

Would I recommend one? Absolutely!!! Would I rather buy a Legend at £275 or a Redback/Black Cat/H4L for less money? Hmmmm, not sure! The custom bats I have are amazing quality and stack up well against the Legend! And the Legend I have seems to  be VERY responsive (I'm sure Yash will confirm!!) So I guess it's down to personal choice and the feel of the bat and whether it's suited to you!

According (once again) to Martin Berrill, 2012 Legend will be £400, as opposed to £300 for 2011 version of the same bat...

The first cricket box was used in 1874.  The first cricket helmet was introduced in 1974. So, it took 100 years for men to twig that their brains were also worth protecting.

I remember Mike telling us all Gray Nicolls Legends are made in India.

I have one and from what it looks like it is definitely Indian made, no doubt.

Do you remember my Custom Oblivion I ordered from Asad ? That bat took 6 weeks to turn out and now I have my doubts on that too, I mean I don't think that is UK made either.

How would you tell an Indian made GN from a UK made one? What are the signs?
