Default Glaser aluminum Handles

Hello
I was wondering if anyone knows the amount of lead shot which are in
those Glaser aluminum handles and also how heavy they are.
They look really comfortable and well balanced.
I'm thinking of getting some, but was concerned about the weight and
freight cost.
Any information would be appreciated.

The weight is not a problem -- the heavier the better. But, the problem I have with Jerry's
tool handles -- the diameter is too small for me and I have small hands. I have the
beginning of arthritis (I guess that all people my age have it) and the small diameter is
uncomfortable to hold for any length of time. I use the handles from Oneway and love them.
I now have two of the 17" and one 11" -- talk about luxury.
