Both are really good. Come in a nice box aswell.

Nice job! Looks to be really meaty in the toe department, and I don't mind a bit of heartwood in a bat.
Are the stickers your own design?

Yeah, they�re not the best quality for use on a bat, but I�m not in the position to be getting a job lot of proper ones done at the moment!

Check out Axminster Spoke shaves. Super sharp and well built.

You could do some concaving with a travisher or heel shave to get it to around 2:11.

Thanks - will give that a try if it�s too weighty in its current state.

Great job, looks a really chunky profile and you're definitely going to get value for your shots.
