I succumbed and bought one of these lovely bats. Mine weighs in at 2lb 9oz and having given it a protracted beating with a mallet, I am impressed. It actually has a middle and a surprisingly large one at that. It also picks up very well.
I know Simmy has one, but does anyone else, and if so, what do you think of it?

Funny weight...
Sorely tempted by one of these. Either this or a custom made. Wish I could afford both

Bad times when a bat starts giving you a girth complex...

So here is an interesting question. Yours had a toe guard. Mine doesn't. Does this tell us something about where they were made?

You dare to question asad???
They make hardly any bats in robertsbridge, especially bats that could be so potentially time-consuming as the scoop.

Nice bats! I wonder how the middle can be so long/big in these bats?
