Firewood?

[punterpupnroy]

I have heard a few things about firewood or redwood. But, does it give any advantage to the batsmen when he uses a bat with a bit of firewood on it. Or is it just a imperfection that shows the sign of poor quality of willow. Because I had a look at this site
http://stickbats.co.uk/shop/bat_info.php?osCsid=ecdc6539a19de823cf3cb992affb7708
and it says redwood was included in grade 3 willow, and that grade 2 has higher redwood content.
