here the link on the carbo core technology

worth a thought black cat with a carbo core handle


Fair enough, didn't realised they'd changed the design to counter the new laws.

I'm not a huge fan of them myself, though if there's demand I see no reason why not...

Anyone else want one?!

Couldn't you get one made to this spec with the Laver handle from Laver procricket? Or maybe you could buy a Laver handle seperately and send it off.

To be fair to Charlie I think his bat is a little more than a long handled harrow, give the guy some credit!

I agree, a lot of thought has gone into this bat and I think whoever buys one will be more than pleased with it

Looking at the dimensions and if someone described them, you'd think it was just a Size 4 blade with a longer handle in it. (A size 4 blade is 50.8cm this is 50.5cm, a size 4 blade is 10.2cm wide, this is 10cm)

But when you look at it it does look rather more impressive and the dimensions I think don't paint the whole picture.

ok then what is the selling point of the bat from a big harrow what is scientific about it.

i was not having a go but want to know a little about the bat than just look at one and buy off a whim.

pictures do not buy me a bat over £100 sheets  any longer i would like to know more about the design  that all

people who have it and i know one of the guys and he knows bats and says it a good un but i want to know why???

on  pictures alone all i see is a harrow long handled bat

The design stands up in so many ways and unless you have tried one or picked up one then id suggest you hold back on comments. This bat like others is simply a cricket bat with a different design than a traditional bat, if you like it then you will buy it but if you don't you wont. Making comments on a product you have not tried is very foolish Dave and you keep going on about things being scientific ? its a bloody cricket bat designed for the modern game.

I have never seen a harrow with edges that size before, however I see where your coming from mate. It is similar to a harrow with a long handle but I believe there are other gimmicks involved!

Well I dont want to speak for Charlie as obviuosly its his design etc but to me its obvious the blade is shorter and narrower and therefore can afford to 'beef' up the middle, other than that the only obvious thing I can see is a much narrower splice area.

But will leave it Charlie to explain. . . .

In my opinion its a great bat and if I had a spare £150 - £200 I would be his next customer
