Is it very heavy? And is the lip wide enough to set a butter knife on?

I don't think it is too heavy, but on heavier side. Yes, the lip is wide enough to set a butter knife on.

I'm not sure Patricia is referring to the same butter dish as this is not Corelle. I am right now resting a small (approximately six inch) knife on the rim of the dish. Wish I knew how to upload a photo here!

It feels substantial but not overly heavy. The lip is wide enough for a small knife--since it curves slightly upward it is not as stable with a full sized table knife resting on it. I am happy with my purchase so I hope you'll like it too!

Yes, it is heavy and no the lip on the side will not accommodate a butter knife. But it does go well with the other Corelle pieces.

It's thin, not razor sharp but thinner than a butter knife. I feel that I have to be careful when I drink from it.

It is not particularly heavy but it is unwieldy because of the length. It is a fantastic trimmer and cut through large ornamental grasses that a manual hedge trimmer could not touch. If they sell a shorter item you might consider that. I love it

I'm not sure about the weight, I didn't weigh it. I honestly don't wear it much. The knife isn't really that sharp. I'd recommend a regular folding pocket knife if you want to carry something around. This knife would be good for stabbing if anything.

very sturdy and heavy, it is full tang. Not sharp out of the box but that can be remedied

These terms are vague enough that it's hard to answer. "Heavy" and "small" are subjective. If you're thinking of snares for small game like rabbits, I have no doubt that you could chop branches that are just large enough to suit that use. I'm also pretty sure that with a little more effort, you could chop larger stuff. This knife is not at all pretty. It's on the large side and the blade is pretty clearly designed for batoning wood when you need to. As long as you know how to do it, neither of these things should be an issue for you at all with this knife.

yes it is heavy, I was surprised at the size and length of the rifle, its longer than my hunting rifles and may by difficult for an 11 year old to cock

Yes, it is large, heavy and the tip is pretty sharp. It could cut a melon in half easily... A little bigger than you'd expect it to be, but otherwise its a great sword.

i have no way to weigh it but acording to what you might call heavy i think it is pretty light. nice knife. handle about right if you have small hands. to small if you have big hands. don't know if this helps or not. hopefully it does.

Not heavy. Handle comes off just by slight squeeze together. Then pick up blade portion by bar on back.

It's not really bulky at all, and too be honest I really only use two of the blades, the long one I use for food and the sheepsfoot I use for everything else, I rarely even use the third one. It's a nice knife but two of the blades rub, if I was you I would just get a two blade if your going too use it all the time

According to Kabar.com, this knife weighs .95 lbs, so the key word in the description is "heavy". I like the heft.

The handle is not abnormally heavy. I really like the design and feel. If you do buy it make sure you really slam the handle into the blade. otherwise it will be wobbly.

I am not sure about the weight but it is heavy enough - not flimsy or sharp

It's heavy compared to stamped knives (like the cheap ones you can get at a grocery store), but not heavy compared to other forged ones (like Wussthof or some of the nicer grocery store ones). Also, it takes so much less force to cut through stuff, it's really not a hindrance at all. Especially because it's very well balanced. I like the weight quite a lot.

Yes it is heavy, don't know the thickness. It does what it is designed to do. Works great glad I purchased it, no regrets.

It should work fine for you as the blade is wide I even tried holding the knife as you describe and it seemed fine on my hand and finger.
