Every Indian reproduction I've seen has a finished blade that is thicker than the stock I start with. I've made many *dull* blades no chance of cutting yourself or anyone else.
The added weight on these reproductions in a nutshell is,to be blunt (pun intended)
due to a lack of the manufactures knowledge.
Sorry if I come across a little abrasive but,the *tap dance* around the subject is tedious to me.
They are made incorrectly because the makers lack an understanding of what they are making and,there is little motivation for them to improve when what they are making (incorrectly) sells.
