Long Blade Bats
« on: December 03, 2013, 08:11:18 PM »

I have a wonderful bat a Newbury Zeus Long blade which weighed in at 3lb 8oz until I had a inch cut off the toe and now comes in at 3lb6oz , It might sound awful but for me its pick up and balance are perfect, and when it is hit it stays hit . My fear is that it will come to the end of it's days and I wonder is there any one making Long Blade bats anymore,  and probably might be a bit lighter ?
I look forward to your advise

The first cricket box was used in 1874.  The first cricket helmet was introduced in 1974. So, it took 100 years for men to twig that their brains were also worth protecting.

Have these 2 long blade bats in stock. Both are 2lbs 11oz. Bat on the left is £170 and the bat on the right is £155 due to there being slight dents in the edge. Nothing major but I would not be happy selling it at full rate







PM or email info@shamrockcricket.com if anyone is interested

Matt

Got to put a word in for Matt here - I've had a couple of long bladed bats off him and they have both been absolute corkers!
