Ivory G10 heavily in the lead here. Another day left though.
In other news... the penultimate, and maybe even final poll for this knife is here.
Please go and vote:

Please read the guide. You get 3 choices in the hope that this spreads the votes out. No backsies.
Remember this is a small knife, so bear that in mind when deciding.
Choose wisely.
Yea, ivory G10 really started pulling ahead! Fine by me!
To me, the important part of the handle is that it have a metal backspacer like on the HH G10 UKPK.

Thank you Superfool. You have both patience and persistence!
I just voted for ivory g10 - and as of now, it looks like the people commited to buying a g10 version is 28. I know this doesn't include a lot of people on the British forums - but it puts in perspective how difficult these small passion projects are. Just for that, I will buy a couple

If it’s going to be G10 can it at least be Burl G10, maybe in White/Ivory, Ivory/Tan or all 3?

How do these things work? Are they released to forum dwellers first?
What I’m basically saying is will I miss out being in the UK!?

....also, it’s not a deal breaker for me but will the handles be contoured in anyway? I like things like this maybe just a little more subtle, but I’m easy either way :-)

It’s okay, I’ll just sit back and see what unfolds.
I appreciate the effort you’ve put in with this though, thanks a lot! It’s so frustrating at times seeing the limitations of the UKPK options - so well done you

Non contoured would be cheaper, and if they're g-10 they should be fairly easy to replace/upgrade to customize the knife.
