No weight, but these guys have been in business since 1649!!:chainsawguy:
Found the weights. The X25 is 2.5 kilograms and the X27 is 2.7 kilograms.

I am a range instructer at ProTech firearms acadmy. ...I carry a Kimber 1911
I would definetly like to shoot with you sometime. I have no certificates of classification, however, I've never been beaten in NC both law enforcement and correction. I did however have the distinguished master pin the DOC gives out. It is the highest award for them. I learned from my dad whom taught combat pistol and besides Mark Duncan and Randy Clark I consider the best I've ever seen. But......main point is as you said it accuracy.I'm an NRA certified High Master in Service Rifle. I've won the Indian State Service Rifle Championship. I am a range instructer at ProTech firearms acadmy. I shoot thousands of rounds every year. I carry a Kimber 1911 compact loaded with Black Hills 230gr +P, Remington 185gr +P Goldensabers, or Mag Safe Defenders. My farthest kill on a white tail was 185 yards using an Encore hand gun. The shot was taken free hand.
I've heard the "control" argument before. To be sure, you have to be able to hit your target. Having said that, I've trained women who weighted 90 lbs soaking wet how to wield a S&W 629 with ease. Not being able to handle a common handgun caliber weapon because of it's recoil is like saying someone shouldn't use a chainsaw because it's too powerful. I would never recomend that a begineer start out with a 44 mag or with a MS660, BUT a responsible gun owner, or chainsaw owner should develop the proper technique and master the fundamentals related to their equipment. These fundamentals allow the operator to safely and effectivly operate any piece of equipement regardless of size. It's true for firearms and chainsaws alike.
A skilled operator can effectively split most wood with any old axe (while some are admittedly better than others). A skilled operator can cut his firewood with just about any size chainsaw, but he/she normally pickes up the one that's appropriately sized for the wood that he/she will be cutting. A skilled operator can effectively operate everything from a 22 rimfire to a 44 mag.
A 22 rimfire can kill a person, but for obvious reasons it is not the handgun of choise forprotection. There are a number of folks who like the 380 and 38 and feel that it is adequate for what they intend to use it for. Power to them. So long as they place the bullets where they need to go, then they stand a good chance. The research that I've done would indicate that speed kills, and a 380/38 just doesn't have enough of it to make my list of tools worth owning. That's all I'm saying.
By the way, you are correct. My 357 mag snub nose does have a lot of recoil, BUT nobody said that I always have to shoot 357 mag ammo out of it. It shoots 38 plinking loads just fine. Makes a great training tool that way.
And for what it's worty, you are right. The 38 special is a classic.
I bought the sharpener with mine and I use it to keep the edge factory sharp each time I use my ax. It works very well and I would definately buy again. My only complaint on my 27'' ax is the handle takes some getting used to. Its short it makes you use a chopping block. I cant wait to try out there new 36 inch handle model. Hope this helps.
For my use, the old one has felt "perfect" - but I guess I will take a look at the new one at some point......
Well now I will checking Ace on my way out of town for the new model , I stop by tempted to buy a second 28'' but I wont hesitate if they get the new ones. I am hangin with Whalers and Gold Miners in Nome the only wood here washes up on the beach. It gets light at noon there are Giant Musk Oxe in town and giant mining dredges everywhere. Happy Holidays looks like about twenty inches of white stuff dropped in last night.
