I participated in the Explorer challenge in May of this year.

The Explorer is certainly a capable SAK, but I’m not sure I would be interested in another Explorer challenge quite so soon.  Stranger things have happened, though.

If I manage to acquire an Explorer and am not participating in another challenge, I'll be in.

If I pay five figures for something, it better have wings or a foundation!

If we can bend the rules enough to allow in my Deluxe Explorer Plus mod, I’d be game. I use the pliers almost daily at work so couldn’t give them up for a month.

My 1983 Explorer was my only SAK for the past 40 years!…until I recently started officially collecting SAK’s…however, it was always in my top desk drawer and was used constantly at home, but very rarely carried on my person.  I think the 4 layer makes it a little less portable.  Yes, the Yeoman is a nice answer, but the Explorer’s awl really comes in handy not only as a punch but as a nice scoring/opening tool when you don’t want to dull up your knife blade on a cardboard box etc.
