The k looks pretty good to me. It doesn't really look bold. To me it looks a little thicker because it is bigger but it doesn't look bold. (Mac OS X Firefox and Safari)
I was playing with bold and bolder font weights a couple days ago. Made no difference since the font on my computer only had normal and bold weights. Bolder always rendered the same weight as bold. Probably the same thing with light and lighter (and their 100 300 or whichever equivilants). If you want to make the kFA look perfect you may have to create a little image and use it thoughout the website. You could set it's width to a value in em's so it will expand and contract as the user changes the browser font size.
