Salix Knife Marque Cricket Bat 2027

New for 2027 Hand Selected by Uzi Sports - We select the cleft before our bats are made by Salix bat maker Andrew Kember The Salix Knife, named after the very tool we use to make it, ‘the draw knife’. An exquisite tool, and the true partner to the cricket bat maker. Each one of these top-grade bats has been shaped by hand, in humble surroundings, without fuss or bravado. The trees are cultivated and grown in England, the clefts are cleaved and dried in England, and these handmade ‘Knives’ are made in England from top Grade 1 English Willow.

Concentration of wood in middle and spline of bat. Greatest core strength, intense control. Substantial edges. Gentle, long bow. Mid driving area. Triangular, slightly duck-billed toe.
