I'd been saying actual prayers for this drop, and lo and behold, they were answered! The scales on the Brook Trout edition are vibrant and absolutely beautiful. I could not resist and also grabbed the Brown Trout, which is more subdued (I keep that one in my work lunch bag), but no less beautiful. 
The knife feels great in hand, allowing for a full 4-finger grip (I have medium-large hands). The blade is super slicy and lightsaber-sharp.
I wasn't sure about the kydex sheaths on a knife this small, so I grabbed one of the leather sheaths, which I love - I prefer it to the kydex, since the leather sheath allows the Chickpea to ride deeper in my pocket. While I appreciate that this knife was conceived as a better Boy Scouts knife - so "scout carry" makes perfect sense - for me, a knife with this profile belongs in my pocket. The kydex sheaths fit perfectly, no rattle, and add a nice pop of color over the typical offerings (to go with these unique "fishy" scales), but it's just not a practical option for me.
The prayers (petition? campaign? ) for a Fishy G-Carta Wicket XL starts NOW....
