I have several Infinity Carbon... they did not feel terrible head heavy like some other Stiga blades I tried... guess I goota get a pic as Carl requested before mutant ninja sewer rats visit my secret trap house.

For reference, here is my weapon of choice. This is the OSP Virtuoso Plus with Rasanter R 48 on both sides. As you can see from the photos below, it is a little head heavy.

Show some photos of how some different Infinities balance. And then people can judge for themselves.

Yeah. Thanks Phorkyas. So, that shows the balance point is not too far from the center of the head. That is head heavy. Not too different than where the balance point on my V+ is.

I am good with a blade with that balance. But, if it was center balanced the index finger would be about half way between where that index finger is and the edge of the rubber. And if it was handle heavy, the index finger would be just about at the edge of the rubber.

I've read here several times about that handle filling procedure. But honestly till know I haven't given the balance of the blade much thought. Just fell in love with it the first time I played it: that crisp, direct feeling in blocks and all in all not too fast for a mediocre amateur like me. - tried a Ligna off against it, which I somehow disliked, so mushy feeling. Maybe next time I try more stuff, but I try not to EJ and instead stick to a simple setup. Get the most out of it (once I get rid of my crutches that is)
