intersting to see the difference

[Cover_Drive]

My eyes are impaired but I see tad more concaving and obviously higher up the blade edges are thinner.

[Kulli]

And the 'middle' has been raised a few inches, along with the edges being significantly thinner near the toe.

[procricket]

The middle and off set has been brought up a tad the edges only where the off set have changed.

The toe has had the whale fin/icon treatment and the weight reduced by around a ounce or two...

Concaved a touch where the off set cureved up to the middle still a big bat for 2lb 6oz.

I think is looks a lot like my old saf genus, but I haven't got any pics to had to show it off...!

[procricket]

I think it looks a but like a mids or a malik

[Cover_Drive]

MIDS is a close call but definitely not MB Malik.

Well maybe Ali's old malik are custom re stickered but they did have branding  but it looks similar to the one of his but anything i guess is possible for him

Like the pads, not keen on the gloves, but more appealing is the 'big bag' especially at 55 quid

That looks great Dave, especially for the weight. Did you have to get a 2nd set of stickers from B3 or was sillyshilly able to save the original set?

[procricket]

Nope i took them off mate before Russell B3 sorted me out i went for a different colour

Not many have the experience Russell does with the equipment industry and a cricket equipment lover as well

Used this today for the first time post weight reduction sorry for bringing a old regurgitated topic back up the bat went so well I glad to say it is my main bat for the season no matter what.

I put in the hard yards with this bat around 12 hours of knocking in post and pre went reduction the bat is a serious bit of kit.  Yes form is improving with more nets but this bat just clicked today and shamembutmthe kulkasakra Ss is relegated so ismthemprovate bin it just felt right with every shot I played perfectly balanced and felt great so happy it finally feels like my bat..

I do recommend b3 to anybody who wants a great cricket bat I know there so many out there but they do make a very decent bat and there my choice for 2013

Little update

Best bat I have used and hard to use anything else really really Impressed I know my form is half decent so it is combined with the decent bat.
Just looked at there softs I think I want matching kit so it goodbye to all my sareen kit including bats so look out for a sale very soon.

The bat is in the top drawer I have ever used no doubt about that very happy with my twisted machine and hand finished infusion.
