Looking for very specific mouse recommendations
Currently, I'm using the Razer Deathadder V2 wired. Sadly, it's only sold through sketchy 3rd party sellers now since Razer has moved onto V3 (which I tried, but it's significantly less comfortable)
Does anybody know of a mouse that has similar contours, size, and weight to the Deathadder V2 (or V1, which was quite similar)?
The closest I've seen so far is the Corsair Sabre Pro Champion Series, but I'd love some input before committing to it, if anybody has any.
It may help to clarify some aspects you liked about this mouse. What is it about the size and weight you liked?
Good point, I don't know why I didn't add these details!
Here's what I like about it:
You should check out Logitech Superlight 2 Dex.
A bit on the pricier side, but my big hands agree with the Logitech G502 and it seems to tick all these boxes.
I don't have specific recommendations, but this site should be helpful:

Wow, this site is fantastic!
This should really help me find exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks so much!!
That Deathadder is absolutely perfect for my giant mitts, can recommend.
Can I interest you in our lord and savior, the superior pointing device since the dawn of time: Trackball
When I did serious design work professionally, the trackball was it. I had a Kensington pro. It was easy on the wrists and was really good about not moving the cursor at all when I lifted my hand. Trackpads are pretty good nowadays for similar work. Would not use either for gaming though.
I'd give my left nut for a wireless wheel mouse optical or the old Stark+ microsoft mouse. Best shape, excellent performance, very light clicks.
Microsoft still makes pretty good mouses, I use one of the portable bluetooth ones. Single AA battery lasts forever, light clicks, lightweight. Doesn't fit as good.
I'm 100% trackball all the time, even (and especially) while gaming. Haven't touched a mouse in years outside of needing to use someone else's computer for whatever reason. I generally despise trackpads and don't even use them for anything other than the very occasional need to the desktop on my SteamDeck and even then if it's more than a few moments or a single task or two, I just pair one of the spare wireless trackballs I have to it.
I have purchased Deck Verified games only to find out they use the trackpads and immediately refunded them.
