Default The heavier the better, imo.

I have an 10 oz. titanium Rob **** that I loved... until I got an 18 oz. steel UUC ****. The extra weight tends to smooth out the notchiness-- shifting feels plush and deliberate at the same time (if that makes any sense).

I need an air leather for my collection... but I still prefer the heft.

Default Rob Knog II - spring and Fall / Stock covered in Alcantara - Summer and Winter- - >

The Rob **** is uncomfortable in weather extremes..too hot in summer and Ice cube cold in winter...the Alcatara covered stock ****, slightly larger than the RS4, is great as an alternative!
