Salix Caerulea or Alba Var varieties are grown and harvested by the company in a willow replenishment program pioneered nearly 100 years ago. The clefts are air-dried for approximately 6 weeks to ensure perfect moisture content and the very best performance. Every aspect of the bat making process is carefully overseen to guarantee a product of excellent quality. All bats are given a final quality control inspection. Performance is tested using a Lignum Vitae Mallet. In this way the world-renowned quality and performance of Gray Nicolls Bats is ensured.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnloading – The willow arrives in Robertsbridge and is cut into roundels. The roundels are sealed and left to dry for a few days.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSplitting – Each roundel has its bark stripped and is marked ready for splitting into clefts. A cleft in its roughest form is cut and ready for machining.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrying – The cleft is graded at this point and left for 6 weeks to air dry which reduces its naturally high moisture content.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandle – The handle is turned on a lathe to create the perfect shape. Each handle is then fitted into the cleft by hand.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShaping – Gray Nicolls “Master Bat Makers” ensure each bat is shaped to provide optimum balance, pick up and performance. Bats are carefully sanded and buffed to give them their finished look and feel.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePressing – Each bat is then pressed, compressing the natural fibers enhancing the performance of each bat and providing the blade with its bow.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBinding – The handle is then bound and glued to add more strength.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLabeling – Finally, the labels are carefully applied and the grip is fitted.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"gray-nicolls-legend-platinum-edition-cricket-bat-2026","title":"Gray Nicolls Legend PLATINUM EDITION Cricket Bat (2026)","description":"\u003cdiv data-appearance=\"default\" data-content-type=\"html\" data-element=\"main\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHAND SELECTED BY OURSELVES FROM GRAY NICOLLS!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA TRUE LIMITED EDITION, VERY LIMITED BY AVAILABILITY OF THIS GRADE OF WILLOW!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA TRUELY ASPIRATIONAL PRODUCT!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe pinnacle of 160 years of bat making history and heritage.
