    I use a high carbon opinel no 8 which weighs 45grams. Absolute pearler of a knife.

    Anything over 6oz (170grms) for a hunting knife on my belt is too heavy for me. That would be a medium thickness 5" knife.

    A 4" belt knife at 4oz (113grams) is about right for me.

    Not sure what they weigh sorry. I don't have any kitchen scales at my flat.

    The first is a Muela Pik As. Made in Spain.

    And the second is a cheap Kershaw.

    I have one of Shelley's large knives which is good. But I use it for road end camp hunts etc.

    Fantastic knife, i got a sheath made up for mine ($30) and wear it on my belt %100 of all waking hours.

    Funny I've worn it into supermarkets daily, banks, offices, kids school and at work. Literally everywhere for the last 10 years.

    Only comment about it was once at a wedding when a guy tapped me on the shoulder and said. " good to see ya got ya knife with ya" !!

    Saw this thread and though, great I should go get my small knife and chuck it on the scales to photograph... Only to find by belt and pouch(few rounds/Boresnake/Drivers Licence) that it sits in is not in the top of my pack, where it has been for the past 4 days out in the hills... Another misplaced item now waiting for a new owner.

    Anyway it was a standard Gerber LST (the small one) weighed in at just over 18g.

    Oh well time to buy another one.
