I don't think TK makes Red Ink or ST either or H4L or Laver and Wood, unless I've missed something

^^^he does for one of the above^^^

[GarrettJ]

Possibly 2 of those

[SOULMAN1012]

Ok

All you need to know is TK is involved in some way with every single bat on this forum bar Aldred, Kippax and Rob Pack.

I think this is a case of what my Nan would say "engage brain before mouth"

[GarrettJ]

In case you hadn't realised most of my posts have a hint of sarcasm in them. From my experience on here every bat has a TK link to make people think its amazing

People look at the glue and all sorts to conclude he is the bat maker.

Nonsense John, most people on here would happily go with another bat maker. They trust TK because of they Newbery brand, but I cant think of a single forum maker who would avoid say a choice bat or a rob pack.

Infact we have forum member on here so trusting that they buy bats based on a facebook picture - even without a TK link!

Ok chaps maybe get back to the Norfolk folk subject 

Don't get me wrong I can appreciate the defending the brand posts!

You have a real problem with toenails97 buying a bat based on a photo but 100's of bats are bought from this site in the very same way. So why is his purchase an issue? Yes he wrote we instead of they on a tweet but that's an easy mistake.

John with the greatest respect, for someone who wants to become a sponsor of this forum you may need to think a little before posting some comments as ultimately it will reflect on you and your brand when looked back upon.

As someone who is operating within the industry some things aren't posted on an open forum due to the nature of them and the "inside knowledge" that is gained by being part of the industry. I'm sure you will appreciate some comments may be taken out of context and could be damaging/harmful to a brands image as a result.

[Red Ink Cricket]

Just to confirm Red Ink has no links to TK. I work on the traditional model, handcrafting bats. I don't press the clefts myself but do everything else.

The only link I've had with TK is seeing him on tele when tuffers went round and did a bit of batmaking. If that counts then guilty as charged!

Couldn't agree more with this.

To be 100% honest given my treatment by admin and the treatment towards another innocent forum member by admin on this forum I have absolutely no interest in becoming a sponsor and I have no knowledge at all about who makes who's bats. Like I said it was a tongue in cheek comment about TK which people haven't taken kindly to.

[ProCricketer1982]

Yes. He has his own mechanical press in the workshop.

That he does, good fun playing with it too

Classic!! Your treatment on here? That's funny!!
You made those "tongue in cheek" comments to get a response!
If you'd like a response, it may be one you won't appreciate - your choice fella!

You can tell it's a TK - it's made of wood.
