Mine went immediately into my watch pocket. I think it'll stay there for the next month or so. I have a LB HB on my keychain, but the jester in the watch pocket gets used a lot more often. I'm headed to California in a couple weeks, and I think I'll make the jester my only EDC while I'm there.

Mine arrived on time (huzzah) but I have not opened the box yet (boo) as I replaced the engine on my mower, then mowed the lawn in high-90’s temps with a feels-like rating of 106 F. That was a mistake.
I made the same mistake at same temp but didn't have to replace the engine. Stay hydrated (but don't try to do it by breathing 95% humidity air)
When I reached a certain age I got more stubborn but not wiser.
Back on subject, I opened one of the Jesters today. It nice having a Jester I can use now instead of the original that is too sentimental for me to risk losing or breaking. A little lock rock which I deem normal in backlocks without an internal stop pin.
I do hope to see more Jesters as exclusives. It would be a fun model to collect and more affordable as well.

any chance someone bought this just because they wanted a jester in 20cv and doesn't like the glow in the dark handle? i wouldn't mind giving my ladybug hawkbill a glow in the dark handle if you're trying to get rid of yours. :)
Finally took possession of my 2. I think this is my first order from KJ and I too love the little extras! Makes it feel like a holiday to open the box. Really like this little knife. Really Really like the blade shape and would love to see a larger version on a Dragon Fly.

That would be great, but I'd really like it with the same shape handle, scaled up an inch or inch-and-a-half longer overall length --> Jester XL! Excuse me for shouting, but with a pocket clip this would be a fantastic shirt pocket knife for use while driving or situations when it's difficult to get to your pants pocket.
Personally, if it didn't come with a clip, I would adapt a wire clip or use the Lynch wire clip substitute suggested by Spydergirl88, which I'm gonna order now to try on my regular size Jester.
I'm also thinking of buying a GITD Delica to keep it company... and maybe substitute a blade in the Delica... ideally a K390 Wharnie.
Edit: just bought one. They've got 'em for $90 now on eBay.

When I started that thread, I put glow in the dark in the poll as something I personally wanted, not something I thought we'd ever actually see. I only just found out it became real and, of course, it's sold out. Ugh.

This is the sort of thing that I like about this forum. I was scrolling down, saw Jabba's post, started kicking myself for deciding not to get a backup and wracking my brain trying to figure out how to get one now, wondering if the'd do another run. Then I scrolled down and SHAZAM!! Problem solved
