1200 Jesters are not that many. IIRC there were 1200 grey Jesters. They were much more expensive and sold out fairly fast

I'd love a dark blue G10 version over the FRN personally... But either way, bring it on Sal!

I will buy one of these as well. As for gifts, FRN will be better :)

On my radar: 110V Military, Police 4 and some sweet Rex 45 Military action.

What is the max volume for a sprint? I thought 1200 was the max.

IIRC, 1200 was a somehow a standard size for sprints, which came from Japan due to 1200 pieces were a minimum order. But in the fairly recent past there were Japanese sprints smaller than 1200. I believe that Shabaria was one of them.
Max for sprint never was mentioned. Possibly it even doesn't exist.

I think it's going to be FRN. If you find the original threads, I think it was pretty clear that FRN was the choice. That might be able to change, but I doubt that we'll see another G10 Jester sprint anytime soon. Just my 2¢.

G10 Jester sprint. Those words combined make my happy place tingle.

I agree and am excited for the navy blue FRN model coming.

I am just dreaming of the navy g10 version and the black SE blade that was suggested just made it sound even better. Heck any jester with a black SE blade would be awesome.

My thoughts too. Which is perfectly fine with me because I'd love to have a few more FRN Jesters! :D

Sorry Eli, just wishing out loud there, didn't mean to cause a stir! Yes, FRN it is for this guy but one can dream. :)

Thinking ahead to other dark blue G10 offerings coming soon, I did dress up some G10 Dfly scales with dark blue RIT dye recently. I think they came out pretty good, what do you all think?

Oh, no problem. :) I just didn't want people to get their hopes for a G10 Jester too high.

Nice job on the scales. I've always wanted a blue Dragonfly (FRN or G10, it doesn't matter). The purple sprint was fun, maybe a blue FRN Dragonfly sprint will be next?

Yes, I didn't dare ask after we just bugged Sal for the purple Dfly, but blue is clearly up next on the list for sure! :D
