1 lb 0.2 oz

:eek:

:D:thumbsup:


Added: at first I read it wrong...TGLB is a bit heavier..LOL
 
Really puts things in perspective, especially with the full tang. Its quite an accomplishment to take that much steel off a knife while maintaining if not improving its functional integrity.

Edit: Oh wait, i read it wrong, thats one lb, not 10 OZs. I really shouldnt post with my brain on autopilot sleep mode :)

Not the first or last time I posted something harebrained :D

I did the same thing, actually. I posted the thread initially reading the TGLB as lighter than the DS8. Ha!
 
This also speaks to the beefiness of the "non-full tang" of the DS series, IMO...without looking back, are the DS8 MO and the TGLB the same stock?

YOWZA!!!:eek:

So, taking the 16% difference in stock thickness into account, all things being equal, the TGLB would only weigh 1 ounce more than the Dog Soldier!!!o_O:eek::confused:

More proof that we are using helium under the handle scales!!!:thumbsup::cool:
