In the interests of bespoke vs off the shelf, one of those TONs Jake has posted is mahoosive...

What about a laver and putting it through the secondary drying process?

I have a cleft in at the moment that is currently 3.8oz in rae form which is light. But doesn't have 12 dead straight grains, I don't know if that's of any interest.

Thanks Ryan, let me see what others have to offer, will contact you if i don't get anything good.

shoab68 since you are willing to pay that kind of money there is no harm in asking for what you want and see whats on offer...

I would also like to recommend getting in touch with Matt at H4L, Matt gets oversized clefts and what you are looking for could be accomplished using a light/low density oversized cleft...worth a shot in my opinion...

Thanks Tushar, I will definitely check H4L guys.

Isn't the Affinity Persona made to measure from a over-sized cleft? Just give Marcus a call.

As with any of the pod-shavers on here, I'm sure they'd love to rise to the challenge. I don't think you'd be disappointment with any tbh.

Thanks for advice mate. I will send an email to Affinity.

Hello.

I have some suitable bats, many either have fewer grains than you are looking for, or are slightly heavier, or are not quite the right middle position etc. I have a beautiful Slazenger V12 from the original run of 200 that matches everything really, aside from having slightly more modest edges, and 8/9 grains. Same with a Bubble Players i have, this one has suitable edges, and dead straight grains, but only 8 of them. Some of these 4 below don't match everything, but come close to

All 4 weigh 2'10

The Purist is a 42/43mm edge. Argon is 41mm. The two TON bats are 40mm. Argon and the TONs have thinner handles. TONs are oval, Argon is semi-oval. The Purist has a thick semi oval. Maybe the Purist has a middle a touch higher than you are looking at, but it has offset edges to provide a longer middle.

The Purist and Argon are �399. The TON bats are �285. Free delivery, and in the case of the TON bats, free knocking in.

You may be able to get exactly what you want from a custom made bat, and i am sure there are some forum sponsors out there who will be very well placed to help, as well as other companies of course. But clefts/bats like that come along only so often. I've had 3 or 4 pass through my hands since we opened in 2011. Please send me a pm if anything i have tickles your fancy.

Thanks Jake,

I will wait for few days and then decide, so give me some time. Your bats looks good, Ton bats a deffo no because i need UK made but GM i might consider.

B3 only if i totally honest if you want a totally bespoke bat to the silly degree B3 is possibly the only option...

If you need any info as a crown owner and user i can help you out mate..

Thanks mate. Think you are the right person to discuss about crown willow as you own it. How do you rate crown willow and how does it differs than other willows. I heard that B3 service is not great and their response to mails are poor.

Ton bats ruled out as looking for UK made.

Will sound odd but not a fan of Laver, got a signature which is not extraordinary, just my personal opinion.
