I broke this bat over the weekend because the ball used by the other team was cheap and too hard.
For now I have just put fiber tape around it.

sand, glue and cover in anti scuff (keep your fingers crossed as well)

scuff sheet could hold it together for a season with some tape

Would you open that up, vice it or even that natty wet string trick?

Easily fixable remove scuff sheet, inject PVA wood glue into cracks and clamp bat blade tightly. After a couple of days clamped sand bat down till its flush then reapply scuff sheet and maybe some fibreglass tape to finish of on the edges. Should play just fine.

String trick wouldn't be much use as the crack appears to be fairly near the middle!

What is the string trick?

[madanchikna]

I was about to ask the same question

[Howzat]

Get some sort of string dip in PVA wrap around breakage tightly and in theory if correct string is used it will contract when it dries and hold the breakage shut tightly.

Can also use string to clamp the break once its been glued and drive wedges under the string to hold the break really tight until it dries.
