I also never had it weighed (flying into and out of Africa and Europe).
Anecdotally it varies with the destination when departing DXB. I have heard that flights to destinations on the Indian subcontinent are more often checked than others (presumably based on experience with heavy carry on in the past).
Is it all in one piece of hand luggage? In J you are allowed 2 pieces of up to 7 Kgs each so if your 10-12 Kgs is in one piece you could split it?
