Although the specs say the PW is lighter than he KK/K3, it really doesn't feel like that to me. Unfortunately I don't have a scale to measure the weights so can anyone confirm it is indeed lighter and put my mind to rest lol.

One of the reasons I upgraded to PW is that it is smaller and lighter, but it actually feels quite heavy to me.

Maybe its just perceived weight and something to do with how the weight is distributed. KK is larger and thinner, while PW is smaller and seems like weight is mostly in the bottom half of it.
