The last time I checked Knifeworks still has GB1 for sale.
Yeah, that's what I don't get. For all the people singing its praises and bemoaning that it's out of production, they're in stock at KC, KW, and BHQ right now after being discontinued for a year and a few months at this point. Demand clearly doesn't seem to be that high.
Also, for what it's worth, I voted "no" in the poll. I have one and I like it quite a bit. I love the steel, I like the scales, and I wouldn't have bought it if the blade was coated.
So in my opinion, they've already made my optimal combination, and they're still available from dealers... if there's room for sprints, use it for something else. Make some of the Golden models with K390. Put some steel that's not an absolute bear to get a fine edge on in the field in the Sprig. Add a Caly 3.5 in HAP-40 to the upcoming HAP-40 Caly 3. Something like that.
Just my $0.02.
