Default Mantle Game Used Bat Question

Hi all,

Saw this listing on eBay and two questions came to mind. First, how did the bat come to look like this? It doesn't look like it was broken but doesn't look cut either. Second, is it possible to authenticate part of a bat without actually being able to tell the weight and length and without being able to see any writing that was on the bat? It's an interesting piece and would look great restored (I am assuming you could by a store model bat and try to piece together a full bat), but I am just a bit confused as to what it is.

Thoughts are appreciated. I won't be bidding/purchasing due to funds, but more just curious.

Thank you,

Chris

Ps. I don't know the seller and am not offering an opinion as to them or the company that authenticated the bat but rather just trying to figure it all out.
