Not that I am trying to let down your Joker bat as it surely looks like a master piece, but it just reminded me of a bat that owned last year.










Around 60 mm edges.
G1 Lush English Willow in 2.15... it had an eye popping pickup just by looking at the sheer muscle.

This bat would terrorize the fielders and bowlers alike, and send the umpire into a jaw dropping shock. Just look at with the BDM bat that had a quite thick edges.

given all the stickers around the edges and its size - can I assume that is a laminate bat, which the Jocker is not?

Nope, it was not a laminated bat ... one super solid piece of very light G1 EW.

It looks laminated as it has the full edge sticker to hide the join, check again.

Talisman is correct, until this year, all CJI Limited Edition bats were laminated (2 pieces of wood).

Kind of strange that the edge sticker covers the shoulders of the bat too. Detective Kovert reckons that's there to hide something!

If I had it, I would definitely check it again but it's long gone now. Thanks for the insight.
