TOE SHAPE

Square

International players around the world mostly use a square toe as it makes the blade appear wider and is stable while in stance. 

Round

A round toe will help prevent toe damage, particularly if you are a constant crease tapper. Both round and semi-round shapes assist you in sliding your bat into the crease.

Semi-Round

The semi-round toe is a popular choice as it gives you the best of both worlds.
