Verdict
Buy if it saves 51 g over the other.
Nothing in the measured fields separates it from the other. Pick on feel, or on a tool the other has and it does not.
Verdicts are built from the measured fields only. They are conditional by design: which tool wins depends on what you are carrying it for.
