Dauntless MFG just teased a new, ringless, version of their popular UB-K. Not everyone needs or wants a karambit style ring on their EDC/defensive utility knife and this new version replaces the ring with a pommel including a lanyard hole. This new version is not on the Dauntless MFG site yet but it has been indicated that there will be new runs of the UB-K soon.
That is the only potential change coming to the UB-K. Dauntless MFG has also teased a new blade change method that allows for easier blade swaps using the included, nested tool.
