Well over the past couple of months I've bought a few bats, it's safe to say I have a little addiction coming haha.
Well the first bat i bought off Aaron on Sunday, (after a poor indoor performance by myself may I add)
It's the Hero 606 he had for sale, and could easily pass as a better grade GM.
It's 2'11




The second bat is a punt i took off eBay, it was listed as a bat made by Malik, a wee bit suspicious but for the price it was worth a punt, it responds well off the mallet and has big edges, it is severely concaved, but that doesn't bother me.
Comes in at around 2'11.5





I'll add some more pictures of the other bats in my possession tomorrow.

If you ever want to sell that second bat let me know mate

[wilkie113]

I'll send you a PM now mate

Would get a new handle put it in its pakistani made!

[wilkie113]

Iv'e had maliks before, and handles were fine.
Always a little thinner, but I've only got small hands 

[jw17]

Oh fair enough! i have heard nothing but bad things though!

[wilkie113]

In my experience, they have been fine.
I have another bat from pakistan, and the hand is great!
UT sports i think it is. Never had a problem with that, or my old malik handle

What's the edge size on that second bat?

[wilkie113]

Im not sure I'll measure then tomorrow.
50p no problem though

[Cover_Drive]

My guess around 38 mm.

Would get a new handle put it in its pakistani made!

I have used many Pakistani bats and handle have been perfectly fine.

wilkie113, yes UT Sports in Karachi is brilliant mate! I have not been there but two of my bats are from there,

[kaustav]

The good old Hero!! I miss that 

[wilkie113]

Cover drive - I agree with you completely people are worrying about the handles but in my opinion they are fine. Will measure the edges later on when I'm home

kaustav - The hero once belonged to you as well? It is a lovely stick for a 606!

[wilkie113]

Well as promised, adding the pictures of a few more of the willow I have.

Here is the Talimsan i bought towards the end of the season, lovely lovely stick.
Only been used in a few nets/bowling machine sessions. Again weighs around 2'10/11







The blank which was my main bat last season. Had it off Kieron, and for the price of these things, it's a wonder he had any left when i got one. Very very good bat for the money, could easily be priced a lot more. Again 2'11






I have a couple more that I'm in the process of refurbing, so they will be added later on.
Any thoughts are very welcome good or bad

Mate, you need to do those bats justice and take some decent photos of them. they do not look good!!
