the type 2 is far heavier than stock. the type 1 feels about on par, but maybe a bit lighter. Any sort of all metal knob will give you a more solid feel. Having had all sorts of knobs over the years in my opinion weight isn't the biggest factor, it's the material and quality of threads. The stock knob is heavy but feels rubbery because of the material. If it was solid with a leatherette cover it would be perfect
