They are nice bats and great prices, mine is very good. Finishing isn't perfect on the back but it's acceptable

These are made in UK by a lad I know. His background is woodwork/joiner.

I get the kit for cheap as I helped sort the sifts and look at the bats he makes as he likes a second opinion.

All bats are made to customer shapes as he doesn't like to hold much stock after he was lumbered with some bats for a while

Those softs are definitely made by Robinsons, the designs are identical to a lot of other brands from this year (albeit I believe @GarrettJ actually had them first if I remember rightly?)

Not that this is a bad thing though, the top Robinsons softs are exceptional

Syntax is underrated.

Looks like the bat has a lot of wood for the weight.

The keeping gloves design was "stolen" by some companies or should I say allowed to be used by Robinsons, shocking business ethics. I believe the next batch will be Ransons made.

Pretty standard practice sadly! Can't go wrong with Ransons mind, had some samples from them before - easily on par with the Robinsons kit
