Tough choice. I’d probably go to SouthpawMark’s for sale thread and choose one of the belters from there.  :D

My more sensible answer would be the Keeley Superior G1. I had one for a while and it was beautiful, but the profile was a little to small for my tastes (35mm edges).

I can't wait to get into Southpaw's thread - not long to go.

If it was my choice though it would definitely be one of the keeleys!

I'd go Keeley out of the two. Although if it were my money, I'd save some cash and go with a forum sponsor to get effectively the same bat eg: Blank Bats, or any others who all offer excellent bats for less. Red Ink, B3, H4L, Ayrtek etc.

I couldn't justify the £467 when there are so many great options out there for less money.

If you're determined to get a TK, then Blank Bats or Uzi are easily better options - exact same bats, less cost.

As for the M&H... I'll leave that one to @WalkingWicket37 ;)

I will second this, far cheaper options using a forum sponsor, I am currently waiting on a x1 from John@RedInk, for a lot less than these cost.

I did notice a lot of Keeley Superior G1 comes with 35mm to 37mm edges even with the Pro.

You can get Keeley's for a lot cheaper than these prices. Don't worry about model names, branding/grading, or even looks. Any Keeley will be great. Shop around for a used one. Unfortunately, new Keeley prices are just plain ridiculous!

How about this stunning FLC @oldfudger ?

Beauty that mate, seen it on your social media I think? Lovely profile, my ideal shape I reckon. I've just made a harrow up in a very similar shape and love the really low middle.

All the sponsors are great but I’d get a H4L

How about the Keeley G3s which can  be obtained for under 200? I think they are made by TK but not 100% sure..

I’m pretty sure they’d make their own bats 👍
