    The horn is on its way to snorlax now, so maybe he'll fill in some of the things we don't know yet. The ACB website reports it as 10 pounds. Subjectively it felt slightly heavier than my Adams. But they are balanced differently (the Adams is a bit bell heavy), so it is hard to be sure.

    Um, that's because your horn has a sterling silver bell, right?
