All that being said, you guys who have not had one split, I think that is a really good thing and I do hope that stays the case. But, for anyone who has never used a single ply blade, I think it would be negligent to not mention that a single ply blade just splitting randomly without you really knowing what the cause was, is truthfully, in the realm of possibilities.
Again, I know that this is not scientific, but in my small club (120 members including regular visitors), we have about 40 members plus visitors that practice regularly. In the period 2019-20, at least 3 bats randomly broke at the neck. Plus several other damage that caused them to change blades. The players could not identify any single incident that caused the damage. In fact, I somehow have a collection of handles from other players' broken bats. I have around seven
My point is that I think(I may be wrong) that, overall, 1-ply blades are no more prone to severe damage than regular multi-ply blades.
