As I see it, the Scrapper 5 was win/win. Everyone who wanted a $100 coated SR101 version got one and anyone who wanted to pay more for a satin INFI version got one as well.

How can you go wrong??

If people had missed out on an awesome knife because it was ONLY available in high priced INFI that might be a different story, but everyone had the option of an amazing SR101 Scrapper 5 for $100.

From what I've seen, the S5CGs can still be had for reasonable prices in the secondary market too.
