I had a feeling you would keep it, but that's a proper bat!
Nice weight and a beautiful butterfly, who wants clean G1 blades anyway? I love a blemished bat  :D

I don't mind a ugly duckling mate as long as she pings that's all that I worry about

Looks like storm damage and a pro pressed bat to me...  ;)

(Apologies for poor photo , I'm not actually in possession of the bats yet)
F18 is 2.7 and V100 is 2.10 .
Not the worst looking for £33 combined

Get the f18 stripped down it will look much better if we can see the grains and at 2.7 that's a nice light bat

Don't know exactly as they have been delivered to home and I'm at uni till the middle of December.  It was a struggle just to get that picture sent by my parents who know nothing about cricket bats

I also received this GN F18. It's a bit grubby in the pics but has cleaned up well with the removal of the price labels and a quick wipe with white spirit. Weighs just over 2.9.




That looks very similar to this one

Well spotted sir. Thought I would chance it along with a couple of others on the bay. I used two bats all of last season so really don't need 9 for the next one!

Can we have some fun with your folks? Ask for a profile pic, a pic of the concaving and get them to measure the edges. No more info than that and see what comes back...

I know someone who brought a purist and he mentioned it had a low middle.
