Thought I might revive this thread
A couple of weeks ago I finally decided to buy the K-1 Silver from Adorama. Placed my order. Had it confirmed and then, an hour or so later, received a message that it was out of stock! They (Helen) confirmed they would have no more coming. They are still available from Japan but I can't justify the extra cost. Moral: he who hesitates losses his Silver K-1. But I do have two lovely Silver Amigos (FA31 and FA77) to ease my pain. I am still not sure I like the silver on my black K-1. May all our problems be no worse!
