My latest acquisition from Darrel Ralph. 3" EDC: ti scales and D2M blade. I had asked for nuggeting and a two tone handle finish (bead blast the radius and satin the surfaces) and DDR came through for me again :) Imagine the Camillus EDC on steroids - same size but blade and handle stock are thicker. Thanks to my buddy Keith (nosamk) for snapping the pic.
 
Still wish I would have had the tripod; would have been totally crisp then. Very nice knife Dex!!
 
Dexter,

That IS a solid looking little sucker :) The Ti. finish is HOT looking too!!

Man Dexter, you have all the cool toys! I gotta work out another visit to WS to see this one! Enjoy!
 
Thank you for the comments, guys! I never thought I'd take to a 3" folder like this one as I usually prefer the 3.5" - 4" blade size range.

Jason, you are welcome here anytime my friend! :) Definitely have to swing by here before you ship off to Nica.
 
Dex-

You're killing me man...simply awesome!

I've found the 3" version to be "just right" for my tastes.

Color me green with envy-

Wow that is a beautiful knife. I really have to pickup one of Darrells knives someday soon
 
Dex

I need your job. Must pay WAY better than mine.

There are only two thing that I can think of that knife needs.

Some of DDR's "unfolded" Damiscus and my pocket.:eek:


Way cool knife!!!
 
That is a gorgeous knife Dexter! You lucky dog........:D

What is the thickness of the frame material? It definitely looks much beefier than the Camillus version.
 
Thanks Peter. The ti slabs are a little over 0.125" thick, and the blade itself is right at 0.125" thick. It is quite a stout piece. Since I have been carrying the Camillus version for a long time, I was used to the thickness of the knife. But when you hold the custom version in your hand it really fills the grip. It's very nice!
 
That is absolutely beautiful!! :eek:

Though I have plenty of custom fixed my DDR EDC is still the ONLY Custom folder that I own. No other folder has ever called to me like his EDC's!!

Again, that is a stunning knife. What a supreme package!

Thanks for sharing
 
Awesome knife Dex.., yeah that nuggetizing is something Darrel does. I have the Proto of the "Gemini" Balisong Darrel is working on.., and the use of the Nugget Tecture is just gorgeous setting off the length of the handles.., a very talented man! Thanks for the nice picture...enjoy your knife!
