Thanks,

I forgot to mention it's an Edge, probably 10-12 oz lighter than dense, fancy wood. IIRC, it's 28 oz. Ballance and handling are really good.

I wasn't aware they made an Edge McWoody until recently. It weighs a few ounces more than a painted Edge, but is still very light.

It's a bit more expensive than the std. McWoody, the Mauser required hand fitting by them at $50 an hour. There are a lot of variations in the Mauser family, one size doesn't necessarily fit all.

It's still much less expensive and lighter than a fancy custom Walnut handle. And, the Edge is stronger than wood.
