Recently included as the only bat in the 50 best items of sports equipment by The Independent (see publicity file) the Præstantia has become a classic bat. Pioneering the deep bow created through a combination of handshaping and pressing, it has dominated the highest levels of club and league cricket for years. It offers a long driving area, thick edges, deep bow, immaculate pickup and stunning performance. Individually treated at every stage of manufacture, from machining, pressing and hand shaping to the impossibly fine sanding which produces our signature finish, the bat continues to capture the imagination of the most talented and dedicated players. Since its launch in 2000, it has consistently out-sold all our other models and will remain a staple in our range for many seasons to come.

Unique in the market, the Harrow and Size Six are handmade entirely from the cleft by Salix and have limited availability during the season as they are the most labour intensive bats in our manufacturing process.
