Right now, only the shop would know for sure since nobody else has one yet.
I can't remember if it was supposed to be 1/3 lighter or just over 5 oz lighter... either way it should be approximately around 13-14 oz.

And the choice of handle scales will make about an ounce variance too. G10 is a bit heavier than micarta.
On the first generation Team Geminis, I have seen the weights range from 18.7 ounces for the lighter Ganza bowie with tan canvas to 21.25 ounces for the military overrun olive G10 on sage. "Normal" coated blade models seem to run about 20.85 ounces for G10 and 19.65 ounces for canvas micarta (satin seems to be considerably lighter because of the grind and coating). Of course there is a bit of variance between each blade (Garth could be pushing harder one day over another) so any of these weights could be at either end of the expected range.
Can you tell this is my favorite knife
