Thanks.

After a few weeks of EDC, odds are the G10 has smoothed out noticeably already, and it no longer really counts as brand new in box.

If it's a black handled version, i'd suggest you at least take care of it while you're EDCing it, they don't pop up on the secondary market that often. The Blue ones ...

The black handled plain edge version is somewhat tricky to find, and the discontinuation of the model was a bit unexpected.

I can see them disappearing quite quickly.

How long is the break? I could've sworn i saw something new from him a few months back ...
