Great piece of craftsmanship that. Actually looks like a proper cricket bat too not one of those obscene Warner clone 'clubs' the sloggers keep wanting [emoji12]Love the plain labelling too

Well done Paul for taking the  wieght out  of the shoulders to retain a large  hitting area also 20 mm toe is thick enough and will assist the pickup.

Classy looking stick mate, love the lazer engraved branding on all your bats. Because there is a lot wood taken out of the shoulders and top end of the bat do you ever feel it'll be very weak in the area and more likely to break in this area?

Thanks mate!
I feel there is still a good amount of wood in the top end of the bat, enough to give it the strength required to take a beating from the ball anyway. This design is certainly not as radical, or has had as much wood taken out of the top of the bat as some other bat makers/companies have done.
I think its all about finding a good balance between structural integrity, pickup & how much wood you can get in the hitting area.

Lovely sleek shapes you're pulling out of the willow, scruffy. And very classy, minimalist, yet unique old skool branding. Very impressive.
