>  the more weight (mass) is eliminated the more the parts tend to move
>(more easily?) as friction is reduced.

If you remove mass from the hammer there will be less pressure exerted
on the knuckle and capstan cushion thus dropping friction (1 or 2 grams
at most) proportional to the amount of mass removed.
