You can do restore of 6.1.2...
http://www.cydiatweaks.net/2012/11/ios-60-601-firmwares.html

I'm certainly no expert, but from what I've read, it is simply not possible to go back to 6.1.2 once you have updated to 6.1.3 if you have an iPhone 5.

At least that's what a Google search indicates.

If I read correctly, the update to 6.1.3 had not been done as of yet.  It's a choice he's facing.

Who said that he had to upgrade to 6.1.3? When he does a factory reset he might be able to restore to 6.1.2 instead of 6.1.3 (hence the above link to download the firmware...

Correct.
Use link provided above for 6.1.2 firmware.

After downloading the firmware, you can shift-click (PC) or option-click (Mac) the Restore or Update buttons in iTunes. A file dialog will open and let you choose the downloaded ipsw-file.

Note: Your browser may change the ipsw-file into a zip-file. In that case, just rename it to end in .ipsw and iTunes will accept it.

But i am still unsure if this procedure equates the required "restore to factory settings"

Because using this method he is going to restore to 6.1.2 skipping the necessary step in between which is to wipe the phone.

Correct, I have not upgraded to 6.1.3.

I am trying to "have my cake and eat it, too."

1. Do either of you know with certainty if it's possible to restore an iPhone 5 running 6.1.3 to 6.1.2 using the linked-to firmware? If so, I can wipe and restore 6.1.3 and then restore to 6.1.2 and re-JB and all is well. (It seems from a bunch of places online that this is not possible, though it seems like DanH is saying it is?)

2. If I simply restore 6.1.2 on top of my current 6.1.2, will that un-JB my phone? If so, that would be good because I could then "erase all content and settings" (which is currently not possible while JB), and then re-JB afterwards.

Thanks

1.  No, you can't.  You cannot downgrade to 6.1.2.  I'm suggesting #2.
2.  Turns out I'm wrong.  See: http://goo.gl/MS8Nd

Probably not worth his time when companies are selling the unlock for just $2.

If you have blobs, it may be possible to do a restore, but don't count on it.  Check: http://blog.iphone-dev.org/post/33546509336/restoration-reinvigoration

Don't have blobs -- (not even sure I know exactly how to get them either).

Also, I don't think that works with iOS6...

Blobs should be automatically saved in cydia. You just need to back them up

I'll try the second tonight with a friend's SIM.
