I'm not sure.....its too light for my bathroom scales, and too heavy for my powder (reloading) scales:) I'll weigh it up on postal scales tomorrow.
I can tell you that the balance point is 1" in front of the scales.
 
Bruce, wow, what i nice knife ! if i hadn't recently received my super sharp, perfect balance, Camp knife from you, i'd snap this one up right now.
to those who do not yet know, Bruce's moderate pricing is not an indicator of his excellent workmanship. nobody makes knives anywhere near as perfect as Bruce does for under even double what he charges.
you could shave your face safely with this big'un, his edges are so even and so scary sharp.
hard for me to resist this one, but truly better to let someone else be lucky enough to discover your fine workmanship.

Thanks for all the comments guys!

Roland, this one isn't perfect. I haven't forged a lot of knives yet (this is the first one for sale) and as you can see in the pics there are more hammer marks showing on one side then the other. The grinds, handle, sheath & edge are however the same as my other knives:).

Hell yeah Bruce! Keep up the excellent work and those hammer marks look like you meant to throw those in, in my opinion it makes it look even cooler and rustic looking. Good job bro! The neck knife you made me still hangs around my neck too this day getting all the work it can find. Thanks again bro. If anyone is looking for a good guy to deal with hit up Bruce.

Wow man, forging now as well. Soon as my work pic's up we need to talk.
Love the full continuous curve with a usable tip, can't believe it is only 12 oz.
My 5.5in belt knife, thing is a kitchen slicing machine with the thin flat grind, not bad on fish as well.
Great work as always
btw when is that knife show in Kamloops again?

Thanks Spookedd. I intentionally ground the blade to ~1/2" of the spine as that was the look I was going for (the blade is just a hair over 1 1/2" wide). I'm glad to here you are getting good use from that necker:thumbup:

Brad - sorry to hear you've been affected by the slow economy. The Kamloops show is April 24,25th.

I'm putting this one on hold until I hear back from haptagud.

Thanks,
Bruce
