Inside a Pakistani Cricket Bat Factory 🏏

I show you exactly how cricket bats are made at the MB Malik factory in Sialkot, Pakistan. We'll take a tour throughout the factory and follow the cricket bat manufacturing process from start to finish. This factory produces bats ranging in price from $50 -$500 and they export throughout the world.
This factory also produces a variety of cricket balls, leg guards, batting gloves, kit bags, groin protection boxes, hockey sticks and more.
Along with the nearby cities of Gujranwala and Gujrat, Sialkot forms part of the "Golden Triangle" of industrial cities with export-oriented economies in Pakistan. Sialkot-based industries are exporting more than $2.5 Billion worth of goods annually. It's famous for producing cricket goods, soccer balls, musical instruments, foam mattresses, expensive motorcycle riding gear, and is the hub of Pakistan's sports goods manufacturing sector.
This is not sponsored. I don't do sponsorships or brand deals. This a friend of mine's factory.

I have a vast background in furniture manufacturing (im a designer) and this is TRUE craftsmanship right here. I have been in millions of manufacturing plants and have never EVER seen workers this skilled. In America, everything is mass produxed by machines, so its really nice to see that all these items are hand made by people who are truly talented.

[@KarlRock]

Awesome. I have two more videos from this factory. Shorter vids. You'll see some more. Everything is done by hand. It's pretty incredible the skill these guys have.

[@SaroShow]

@@KarlRock I was carpenter for 4 years and I can tell you that machine at the beginning is the most dangerous, plus they have an old version without safety measures! And the man working have the index finger shorted...and the guy few minutes later old the wood with his thumb on top of it which is super dangerous 😱

No safety guards on those saws, I see some missing finger tips, and all of that flying dust and loose wood shavings on the floor are not only a safety hazard for workers, it's an explosive fire hazard as well.
