This unique shaping reduces weight at the toe, resulting in a lighter pickup and supreme balance while maintaining incredibly thick edges (37mm-39mm) for power hitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"26\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"26\"\u003eWhat grade of willow is used in the MRF Prince Limited Edition?\u003c\/b\u003e This bat is crafted from premium Grade 1 Performance English Willow, typically featuring 7 or more straight grains. This ensures an exceptional, responsive \"ping\" right out of the factory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"27\"\u003e\u003cb data-index-in-node=\"0\" data-path-to-node=\"27\"\u003eDoes this bat require knocking in?\u003c\/b\u003e Yes. Because it is made from premium, natural English Willow, the MRF Prince Limited Edition requires a thorough knocking-in process. We recommend manual knocking with a bat mallet and light oiling to compress the surface fibers and protect the edges from the hard impact of a new leather cricket ball.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/topcricketstore.com\/collections\/cricket-batting-accessories?_gl=1*orxj5j*_up*MQ..*_ga*NDU5NjcyOTU5LjE3MzUzMzI5NDI.*_ga_Q7H58E1FJT*MTczNTMzMjk0MS4xLjAuMTczNTMzMjk0MS4wLjAuMA..\"\u003eBat Accessories\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/topcricketstore.com\/blogs\/blog-posts\/how-to-choose-the-perfect-sized-bat-for-you\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MRF","offers":[{"title":"Short Handle \/ 1 \/ Light (2lbs 7oz - 2lbs 8oz)","offer_id":47654921634018,"sku":"MRFX-EBAT-PRLE-SHLI","price":369.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Short Handle \/ 1 \/ Medium (2lbs 9oz - 2lbs 10oz)","offer_id":47654921666786,"sku":"MRFX-EBAT-PRLE-SHME","price":369.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7924\/0418\/files\/1562FF28-6C23-4B1F-BE46-828C3D679637.jpg?v=1775606016","url":"https:\/\/topcricketstore.com\/products\/mrf-prince-limited-edition-english-willow-cricket-bat","provider":"TopCricketStore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
