Haven't been to Mr. Parko's site, but Gold Monkey is JinHou (Jin=Gold, Hou= short for Houzi= Monkey)... I have seen the Gold Monkeys online, but their numbering system isn't like GD or DA. The GM number I saw was 666. If you're superstitious, maybe not for you. Price was about $2.50- 3.00 retail.
There is another brand, that I have seen called Chaoba. They look better than the others, but that doesn't mean much. I have seen square points and round points in that model and the blade is a heavier than the DAs and GDs. As I said though, that point may be moot.
Here's a Chaoba I saw selling for about $15USD. Scales seemed nicer than the DA 74 that I bought, but I was going for the cheap, tried and tested blade, so I didn't buy it to test it. Also, the DA scales are abysmal, so it isn't saying much. Though, I have yet to see the DA/GD 200.
