I bought one ten years ago, it was a great choice and I really like the GITD scale.
Unfortunately it’s gone now :person_facepalming:
I don't have your particular one but my Victorinox below is near and dear to me for a long time now. My cousin wants my "exact" model including the grey lock tab for the knife but I can't find it anywhere anymore for sale.
If you are looking for an outrider model here are some links:

Could not camo color. Good seller. Knives are new. Not used.
Thanks for those links. He's insisting on the camo color, but he may just have to settle for the red ones if he really wants something similar.
Cool. First link knife has grey button/lock. Second link not sure. Newer model.
He may go for it as he really likes the grey button lock. He has a lot of time on his hands so I'm going to suggest to him to paint the camo colors himself.
If he paints it he will be an artist then.
Never seen the glow option, how is it in really life? Like the disappointing cheap, off-yellow plastic glow in the dark or more like the vibrant modern generation of glow in the dark products?
yeah those are nice, I have an older Vic rescue tool that has those scales
I have placed it direct sunlight for about 10 minutes. After about 2 minutes it starts to noticeably dim. It is very bright. I will let it bake in the sun longer in the next few days and post about it.
That’s pretty damn cool is that :sunglasses: , loving the camo as well.
This is the only GITD item I own. So I do not know what the modern generation of gitd items perform like that you mention. If you place the Climber in direct sunlight ( a bright ray ) for about 30 minutes you get super bright light. Bright enough to read a map or see other items by. After ten minutes it becomes much weaker in brightness. The more I charge it up the better it performs. It has a nice grippy texture to the handle. It being yellow I am sure it would show oil, grease, and dirt from your hands if used to fix machinery. I am a mail ninja with my Victorinox knives. Mail, packages, boxes, cans, and packaged food items are what I use it to open. One more thing to add. My nitecore P16 surly brightens the handles up nut not as well as the sun. The sun is best.
The images of the knife seem to be gone from the website. Did you create the original post about the chinese fakes? From what I can tell from searching the web. That Canada, U.S.A. , and Mexico are the primary markets for the StayGlow knives. My climber glows yellow/green. In bright room light while it glows it is very yellow. In total darkness it is more yellow/green in appearance.
Ven are the StayGlow climbers, and classic SD versions sold in the U.K. ?
I forgot about my gitd cat named "Fang", so i have two items that glow.
Not that easy to source, think they have been in the past but now not available. I would have to import basically here in UK unless one came up for sale.
Awesome, thanks for the detail, I think I’ll keep an eye out for one this side of the pond. Cheers 
That is the Ebayer I purchased some Victorinox tools from. Good seller.
Which one? Central Valley is who I bought my SwissChamp from and a couple of Zermatt large leather holster with sharpening steels.
They are great. The seller in the first link, I’ve never dealt with.
