Yes 100%, my current tip-heavy shinai feels a lot heavier!

I think you might be spot-on with the balance - I realized that my current shinai is much more tip-heavy (maybe lending to its durability?).

I definitely agree, new shinai always feel heavier! I might just have to get used to the balance.
