Are you a LH? Or do you prefer heartwood on the inside edge?

Looks lovely, what weight is that? Hawk told me they state their weights without grips & stickers.

No, RH but I do like heartwood on my bats. This was what I thought to be the best performing cleft they had after getting the whole rack of LE's and the yet to be graded clefts in this shape out!

2lb 11.2oz on my scales. I may yet be popping in for a weight reduction but will wait and see how it is when I use it. I've added a second grip which has pushed the weight up a bit more but picks up very well considering how much wood there is but I may have about 1-1.5oz taken off.

No, although they recommend 2hrs knocking in which isn't too bad as I hate it (as do my neighbours!)

£250?? Not a bad looking bat and better than the £300 mass produced things.

Hawk quality is never in question so I'm sure that'll be a blinder!
Like the hawk stickers too which is always a bonus!

Looks a top bat mate. Hope it goes well.

Hawk really seemed to have changed over the last few years, I remember a few guys having them at my club and they looked to be really hard bits of wood that were pressed loads and would last years.
