The K2 blanks don't hold up. They are extremely light but also extremely fragile. Have heard of far too many of them breaking. Phenix has some great blanks, but the K2 ain't one of them.
IMO, builders have been way too focused on weight as opposed to balance, feel, load distribution, and power (backbone). There is a fine line that you can cross with regards to weight which will kill the rods durability. A well balanced rod will feel lighter and fish better than a pure "light rod"...
