All our cricket bats are made from the highest quality English Willow (Salix Alba Caerulea). Using age old techniques and traditions combined with cutting edge, state of the art technology to produce high performance, high quality cricket bats.
All our bats are made with power and performance in mind. We select each cleft to ensure edge and spine sizes are kept as big as possible. Edge sizes range from 36mm-40mm and spine size range from 60mm-67mm.
Choose from the following options to create a high-quality bat that suits your individual style of play.
Our Grading:
Grade 1+ These are the premium pick of our lightest/best looking Grade 1 English Willow. Chosen for both aesthetic and playing qualities. 8 or more clear, straight grains of the face of the bat.
Grade 1 Usually 6-10 clear and straight grains with only a small blemish or mark on the playing face.
Grade 2These will traditionally have 5+ grains which will be predominately straight. Any blemishes will be minor and should not impact performance of the bat.
Grade 3 The willow grade has no direct relation to the playing ability of the wood, it just has less visual attraction. Typically has 5 or 6 grains, some blemishes are possible and some minor marking anywhere on the bat, grains will sometimes have a wobble.
