The Process:
The Best Service on the Market
After years of extensive research, we believe our Match Ready service is the best Knocking-In service available. In comparison to other Knocking-In services on the market, our service boasts the most complete job possible.
We've found that most other Knocking-In services will either cause damage during the process, or do not complete the job properly, leading to damage during play.
Hand Knocking of Edges & Toe
The Toe & Edges are the most vulnerable areas on a cricket bat. These areas are most prone to damage & will break if Knocking-In is not completed correctly. Unfortunately, almost every other Knocking-In service on the market will not complete the Toe or Edges as much as required.
Our Match Ready Service includes the completion of the Edges & Toe by hand, along with Hand boning of edges for enhanced longevity & reassurance.
Automated Hand Held Knocking of Face
This service includes up to 200,000 impacts on the face via a unique process. It is set to a force that is very gentle on the bat. It avoids deep bruising of the willow which is unavoidable in commercial Knocking machines & can also occur if the incorrect force is applied. The impact of this process enhances rebound by increasing the 'trampoline effect' to the bat. Most importantly, the Bat is held by hand and observed throughout the entire process (unlike most Knocking Services that use machines where bat is strapped in and the operator presses the button, walks away and comes back once it is done). This means, the process can be modified specifically to suit your bat to allow more time to be spent on areas in need!
This service boasts a unique process that is at least 20 times faster than any commercial Knocking-In Machine
