So simply cut off 1/4 of the length of the 2 oz and the remaining bolt will weigh 1.5 oz.
You can use a hacksaw, a cutoff blade on your router, a dremel cutting disk, etc.
My 2 cents,

This is the same advice I would give except you will need to cut just a little over 1/2" if this is a weight bolt with a head on it. Once you cut it use your grinder or belt sander to clean and bevel the threads so it will thread in and out of a 3/8-16 nut without any resistance.

Proper way to do this is thread the nut on the weight bolt before cutting and chamfering. That way when you unscrew the nut, it straightens the threads.
