Five grams

The finest published resolution on this shelf, against 10 g, 0,02 kg and three scales that publish nothing.

You will never need five grams to weigh a carp. What the figure tells you is the quality of the load cell — and a scale that resolves to 5 g at the bottom of its range is a scale you can believe at the top of it.

The stainless grip

A scale lives in a bag with a wet landing net. Seven listings here, and three name stainless or metal for the part you hold and hang from.

Where it can be bought

United States 9,99 €, Germany 12,69 €, France 15,99 €, Italy and Spain 16,99 €. Confirmed in all six.

Availability

Read on the day this page was built: 13 € to 17 € at the German, French, Italian and Spanish Amazon shops.

Priced in another currency: the American Amazon shop sells it outside the euro, so the range above excludes it.

Catalogued and unsold: the British Amazon shop lists the reference with nobody behind it.
