OMG!
Hey guys!
I just got my Paul Binns weapons!
It was just like my first sexual experience all over again!
(except it was l onger and the sword didnt roll its eyes :o )

Because of the weight of my Czeck sword I have been really afraid to throw the shoulder shots in fear of not pulling them enough
Now after holding a PB I know why, the Czeck sword weights about 3 times a much and is harder to pull!

woohoo! what a way to start off the weekend!

pics to come soon

ps I got a 'econo' model sword and a 18 inch (12 inch blase) saex

How much do they weigh?

I havent weighed either of them but my Czeck sword weights 2 lbs 14 oz and the PB sword is signifigantly less than that.

As someone else pointed out to me, the Czeck sword is alot more tip heavy so that may be the noticeable difference.

will get them weighted and post the results

I was in a hurry this morning but managed to get some time to weigh them.

The saex is 15 ounces exactly
The sword weights more than 16 0z but less than 2 pounds;)

I know that not a perfect measurement but all I had at home was a small food scale (that goes up to 16 oz) and an old ratty weight scale (it moved between the 1 and 2 pound marks)

Thanks! I was figuring with the thick edges they'd be boat anchors. A 2 pound broad is perfectly doable!
