Unicorn! Rare and beautiful and noble.

Where's the rainbow?

I guess it comes with the patina.

I've been a little frustrated trying to photograph the subtle grain visible in the acrylic using my cellphone camera. I might have to bust out the real camera next weekend. Here's a pic showing the little chips by the bolster on the pile side. I'm fine with a little character on a user knife, but I suppose GEC won't use this material again because of this sort of problem.

For sure, the grain structure is what makes the material special in my view. I hope (but seriously doubt) that we'll see some more in the future on a knife I would be interested in. The #25 is just too small for me (I've tried them a couple different times).

I was able to take a pretty good photo , with some tweaking to show off the Unicorns "grain"

I have two. The one Brian @007hunter gifted me has no grain and is smooth as can be. I liked it so much I grabbed this one too and it has the grain.
