You have to realize that this is a 1lb 12oz knife that is only a little over 12 inches long.
When I stood it up ,blade down, on a counter top it very nearly teetered at the ricasso on its own.
In trying to demonstrate this I set my translucent hard Arkansas stone on end and, with the addition of a nickel, was able to get the knife to balance,if ever so delicately.
Jeremy has said to me on told me multiple occasions how he doesn't go out of his way to create a neutrally balanced blade,it just works out that way, which , in addition to the unusual dimension of this particular knife,makes this fact even more impressive.
