I stole these specs from a post Doug made at Bladeforums:

Blade Style: Drop point, high grind
Blade Length: 6 inches
.188" 0170-6C carbon steel or CPM S30V stainless
Becker Trademark GV6H handles
Black epoxy powdercoat or stonewashed
Variable Balance: Neutral or blade forward (Magic!)
Sheath: Ambidexterous, ballistic nylon with Kydex insert, storage pocket

Can one of you knife nuts please explain what is meant by "Variable Balance: Neutral or blade forward (Magic!)", specifically the "variable" part?

I am presently about 2 months in to a 4-year wait for a new Randall 25-6" Trapper, and I bought a BK10 Crewman with the intention of using it as my hunting/survival knife. But I confess I'll have to take a hard look at the S30V version of the BK12.
