I called last week and now they are saying the end of June. I’ve sent an email twice requesting to be added to the email list, but no reply. :/

I just got an email back from them with instructions to order!
For those that are interested but haven't received an email, send one to
jennifer@halperntitanium.com for availability and instructions on how to order. They had a limited range of G10 colors, as well as a few micarta and one tek-wood option (option 4). They also had a few flat scales in various colors of G10 (option 5).

Didn't want to e-mail someone directly (I'm sure they're getting flooded with requests right now) so I just sent a general request through their contact application. I've been waiting a long time to get micarta scales from them again, that option 4 burlap micarta looks great

I also emailed her this morning. She sent me the info and I quickly sent her an order. Now I’m just waiting on the invoice.
I will say though, I sent two emails through their website and never got a response, so you may want to reach out to her specifically.

She got my message through the site contact and sent me the instructions not too long after I sent it, I suppose it was an unneeded step but I like to err on the side of courtesy if I can.

Can anyone post a comparison photo of the Halpern flat scale thickness with let's say, a PM2 and/or a Shaman?

On a mule :) I do have weird sized hands so usually I make my benchmark comparisons with those 2 knives

Thank you very much! :) The pics are much appreciated. The flat scales look thin enough to be uncomfortable to say the least. A shame actually since I was hoping they would be thick enough to dremel some scalloping patterns like Putman scales.

FYI. I got a confirmation from Jenn (
jennifer@halperntitanium.com ) that the scales from option 4 are contoured and the scales from option 5 are flat. I hope that helps.
