Our part-made cricket bats are designed for players, coaches, and hobbyists who want to experience the process of making their own bat using genuine pressed English willow.

Each bat is supplied from a fully pressed cleft with the handle already fitted and aligned. Binding, a grip, and a small bottle of bat oil are included, giving you everything required to complete your own bat from shaping through to preparation.

Choose Your Handle Shape

Available handle options include round, semi-oval, or oval to suit your preferred feel.

Choose Your Starting Point

Part-made bats are available in the following preparation stages:
  • Part-Made Cleft Form – pressed with handle fitted, ready for full shaping
  • Oversized Pre-Shaped Profile – rough shaped with additional timber left for refinement
  • Near-Finished Form – minimal work required before sanding and polishing
Choose Your Willow Grade

Available willow grades include:
  • Grade 1+ – cleaner face with minimal to no cosmetic blemishes

Workshop Requirements

These bats are supplied in a part-made state and require traditional woodworking tools to complete. This typically includes hand planes, drawknives, rasps, and sanding equipment such as an orbital sander.

Genuine English Willow

All part-made bats are produced using the same genuine English willow used in our handcrafted Cooper Cricket bats.

Important Information

Part-made cricket bats are not match-ready on arrival. Further shaping, finishing, and knocking in will be required before use. Cosmetic tool marks, grain variation, and natural imperfections are normal and expected at this stage.
