A GITD UKPK would be nice.
I don't think the moon glow material would be strong enough for UKPK scales. It isn't G10 and so far has only been used with steel liners.

You are right. I forgot it's fragile. But i wouldn't mind a sandwich contruction with translucent/ jade g10.

Jon said he'd be selling them in batches of 100. This was just the first batch and he specifically mentioned three more batches of 100 (though there may be more).

From the EDC Forum:

he posted later that there will be 6-7 hundred made. It is a good size rum. I am not active on EDC forum, but cannot pass Native5 and had to reward myself for shoveling during last days :) I think that I never saw that much snow falling at once and I was born and grown up way up on the north.

Coupe, nice pictures, but what is a spirt run? :)

I believe it is actually a dealer exclusive and not a sprint.

Yeah, I prefer mine without the collector's number (though I have bought some collector's when I couldn't find the unmarked version).
GITD goes great with fire.

I received mine yesterday. It was a nice surprise. We had snow most of the day and I didn't expect mail delivery. I do not care much about Moonglow part, there is no practical aplication for me. But I like the color and finish on scales. Love the knife.

It is certainly not sprint. It is forum knife, also dealer exclusive, but not a sprint.
Lately with increased number of exclusive runs and quantity of new people became interesting in these variants, I saw quite a few times when people call them sprints. Of cause it doesn't make it correct.
