What weight is that Amplus? Looks fairly small for an Amplus

It's 2lb 9oz but I asked for it to be hard pressed for long term performance, rather than a general OTS Amplus.

Jury is still out on whether I like it or not but it is certainly growing on me.

How much did these set you back?

Been told by John that I am not allowed to reveal how much we paid him for these.

They both, funnily enough, come under his 'bespoke'' range -even though they have the 'Airblade' stickers.

Why is that there are techniques which allow more and under that weight

Nice bats by the way especially the end one.

May I ask what the finish is like mate

I am sure B3, given these clefts and the level of technology, probably could get bigger edges are a lower weight.

The finish is actually very good. I was surprised if I am honest. Seems to be polished with silicone powder as some was still stuck to the underneath when it got to me. Seems a very well made, and prepared, bat.

You keep mentioning air blade. Isn't it airstream? Or is air blade a grading?

Not about b3 mate there is a way without any science of tech mate you can get a heavy cleft at 41mm edges  and that weight

Does look very good sorry if you thought I was being negative mate I certainly wasn't bud I love the profiles of both

Around 2'10, mammoth quality profile, 17 grains, quality finish, rates highly on the pingometer scale.......sounds like my kind of spec!

Both bats look huge for the weight, good luck with yours.

Sorry John.

I keep saying Airblade because we have just had a Dyson Airblade installed in the gents loo's at the cricket club and the name has stuck in my head.

Airstream, Airstream, AIRSTREAM!

Looks very nice like the heartwood makes the bat stand out do they do a model that has no concaving at all as never tried one is on the list to get
