Mine has left New Zealand. Asked for 2.9. Fingers crossed.

 hey Sarg, this is the worst part of ordering a bat online - waiting for the postman :)

 couple of questions i) when did you place your order ii) how long did it take to reach you?

I did the video early this week.

Pickup is balanced and not as bottom heavy is it could be. it picks up it's weight 2.95 imo and is the net bat I want once my B3 is match ready and then my match bat for the first few games if I am not opening.

I want a bat a ounce heavier early on to balance out the fact the wickets are slow compared to our hard wicket nets. It all evens out by summer. 

It is a lovely bit of craftsmanship and I messaged Laver and Wood a thank you for TR.

Excellent video mate. I saw a picture on L&W's FB page that a retro stickered bat was going to the northern territory - i guess that was your bat! My bat is on the way, will post pictures and a review shortly.

 1 question  - how thin or thick is the handle at the bottom?

Mine is currently being held for clearance. I presume I will have to pay some charges to the relevant people before I get my hands on it

I received my Laver 2 weeks ago with no custom charges. Bat only took 4 days to arrive

Bat has arrived.
If I knew it was going to be as good as it is, I think I would have shelled out for two.
I was very specific with the weight I wanted and the boys have deliver. Has a lot of willow where I hit it, I have always been a fan of the Jules Classic/MH/Scats profile but have often found them a little to heavy for my liking. however this right on 2'8, actually just a fraction under with no concaving, just under 70mm spine with scuff sheet and toe guard.
Shape of handle is great. I whole buying experience, communication freight etc was on point.
The only negative I could find would be I have purchase bats with a higher quality finish. The value of this bat was very difficult to resist and I'm glad I didn't

I sense a ban maybe forthcoming ;)

There are forum rules about bat reviews...

Tracking for mine has said custom charges calculated. So once I have paid those and I get the bat I will post some pictures of it
