Default Blade Balancing. How close?

I have some woodies and they are half a gram different. Is it practical to try and get them closer? Will I notice any difference?

Thanks,
Pete

I usually try to get mine down to .01 gram or less. The closer the better.

It's pretty easy with some sanding, drilling or adding a drop or two of CA on the blade root or tip as appropriate.

Don't forget blade C/G that will affect things also.
