No reason why you couldn't get a 2'7 in this profile. Shave 2-3mm off the edges to a respectable 29-30mm and a touch more concaving and I think you could get there.

Gone with something similar with a b3 bespoke, dont think its going to have quite the same wow factor though, that size is just impressive!

It's big thanks to the harrow profile/SSH/drill hole/sloped shoulders/duckbill  which gives you the appearance of a 2'13-14 bat packaged into a 2'11 weight. I have a 45mm edge typhoon being made by b3 off a standard 400 density cleft using most of the same weight saving methods.

Ive got the same harrow/SSH set up, leaving the finer details with streaky to bespoke the custom #19 shape as i trust him more than myself to make a cracking bat.

Cracker of a profile that Ryan! Based on the spine height was it a oversized cleft?

Add all that weight back on when it's not a bat for hobbits though ;)
