thinking about a ZDP shallot, anything else out there?

What's the official Rockwell hardness of Kershaw ZDP-189 shallots?

Re Spydercos, I wasn't a fan... then I got an S30V Native as a gift from my wife... wow. I got a backup, the W-W price was attractive and my wife new I wanted another one. I've looked at others at a B&M gun/knife store - just haven't seen one I like. Now Kershaws, they are different. I recently bought a Zing at W-W - super little carry knife. I love my old and new (S30V) Blurs. I keep looking at the ZDP Shallot. Can't seem to order one. But... my favorite of the last few months are the JYDII CBs, both the regular one my wife shocked me with at Christmas, with it's black featureless G10 handles, and the factory second/refurb/short run (Note the four 'X' marks.) I bought that has grey G10 with their familiar JYD fuselage pattern. Neat! Both came as shavers - andhave been fantastic knives thus far.

PS Despite my paying more for my warranty-less grey 1725CB from a seller who didn't indicate it was a 'second' - it is fine and I carry it more!

any idea where to get a 2nd CB JYD?? I have no problem with 2nds/blems

I would pick a lam-zdp if possible, edge holding sans rust.
