So you’re basically wanting a DLC version of the Heinnie Haynes exclusives?

I believe SNK on their Instagram account said there were a couple more Golden models left to do. This is probably one of them I would imagine.

The 4v is the draw for me.

Likewise. I have also come to the conclusion that I slightly prefer the frn.

If it was the drop point blade, I'd have to change my pants, lol.

I really really really wish SNK would do a 4V SE knife. The UKPK would be brilliant.

Since I have all the other SNK models and I'm also a fan of the UKPK I'd be in for sure!

Even though I don't always understand the specific steels asked for certain models, I'm always a proponent for more UKPK variants. Obviously, folks want this, and it's yet another sale for Spyderco and St. Nick's (eventually).

The UKPK is highly slept on as a model, and truly one of, if not the best for light EDC cutting; which is the hardest usage that a large majority of the knife community will ever put on their pocket knives. Wonderful in-hand feel and balance, stellar ergonomics, feather light weight, strong and sturdy "lock up" and construction, and with just about the perfect length of edge for most uses for such a knife designed as it is. This is a perfect vision made reality of a modern slipjoint.

Let's make it happen. The model needs the exposure, and if the elusivity of exclusivity is what needs to happen within the US to push the model to greater heights, so be it.

I think with the blade being 4V, it would have to be mated with G-10 for its handle scales to add robustness. I do prefer the FRN, but this just makes the most sense for the St. Nick's exclusives; UKPK included.
