From what Dan said I don't think you are going to have any problem at all making JYD before Dan releases the knife.

IF he just doodled it up Friday night, he will first have to refine his drawing, then get figure out what to make it out of, then actually prototype it and do all the normal manufacturing processes to it, actually grinding it out, heat treating it, sharpening, handling and then testing, probably several times before he is ready to turn it loose to the Dog Destroyers.
