Got to be grade 3 or 4, unless the ping is out of this world!

They're just stickered up Pakistani bats though aren't they? Bet it didn't cost much more than a ton

To be fair it does look much better with the scuff sheet and stickers on. Who are Torpedo then? I saw the stickers stuck on your workshop wall as well.

Torpedo have been knocking around Yorkshire/Lancashire for donkeys. They were supplying big Asian profiled bats before they got trendy

I've heard different things, apparently made by "bar bar" in a garage but also heard they are just stickered up so not sure.

It's a nice profile and size for its weight but I personally think its an ugly bit of willow. Defiantly not a limited edition. I'd say grade 4, 3 at most.

Agreed but I think I've re-handled about 6 of them this year. Wonder if it's the type of handle they use?
