Certainly not for the "gram weenies" but a doable weight for most of my trips, especially if I'm using found wood. Looks like it would rock for car/canoe camping. I'm glad to hear feedback from someone here that's actually used one; you guys have a lot more credibility with me than some random Amazon reviewer!

I imagine I'll pick one up before long.
