Today I went to the Chesapeake knife makers show in Timonium and I tell you what I was not dissapointed. The first table I visited was with USAFSP and it was Darrel Ralphs table. I wasnt sure what I was going to pick up at the show but I when I made it to his table I saw 2 Gunhammers layin there one brown inlays and their new recurve style blade and the other a prototype with greenish blue inlays and the same recurve blade but with a series of holes and millings in th upper portion of the blade. Both were assisted. I picked up the one with the blue/green inlays and I fell in love, the look the feel the whole package felt just perfect. Well I had to walk away from that table for a bit to make sure I wanted to spend pretty much all my money on this knife but after walking around and feering its dissapearance I went up and with the help of my g/f I bought it. And I have not been dissapointed. The lockup is perfect with no play and perfect centering, just an amazing knife and as soon as I can get picks I will. The guys were great to deal with and made buying the knife all the more easier. The only thing I regret is not having the money to buy one of his balisongs, which were fantastically made in their own right. This is the first Ralph folder that I have owned and I know it will not be the last, this is just a tank of a knife and has to be held and seen to really appreciate. Jut thought I'd let you guys know, and I will post pics as soon as I can......
 
As far as I am concerned, Darrel makes some of the nicest knives you are likely to find. I'm not the least bit surprised that you like this knife a lot.
 
yeah I had never held one before so I wasnt sure what to expect now I know there's no hype to these knives they are what their said to be.
 
Darrel makes great knives. I have a Bali on order with him. Good score on the knife and enjoy it. I know you will.
 
CONGRATULATIONS on your GH purchase!! THAT is awesome! I am stoked as I have a Gunhammer and an AXD NG on order with him as well.
 
Hi
The GH now comes with IKBS for the manual.
They open very fast and easy like the assist!
Here is a pic of the MT, Radian, TG and the EDC-X
BTW These are all FLAT ground blades!

Is there a difference in blade length on the MT and the radien? Or is just that the radian has holes drilled into the blade?

Thanks
 
To the very best of MY knowledge, the only difference is the holes. The blades are the same length.
