The AGM that Randall had purchased to my knowledge doesn't turn or fade...this was not like the Westinghouse Mic that would turn because of the light...it was not a great seller for Westinghouse so they chose to discontinue the material...if this is the material shown to me at Blade this year, it is not the same AGM that RMK used...now I'm not saying one way or the other whether this material should be used or not, I'm sure it would make a great looking handle!
