This is one of 10 Talonite EDC folders that Darrel Ralph and Rob Simonich have joined forces on. Rob ground the blades, with Darrel fitting the handle. This knife was announced about 6 months ago and immediately sold out real fast. Not sure why, but the bead blasted grey areas turned up green.

This knife has to be the prettiest anodizing job I have seen from Darrel. It has hues of purple, blue, and gold - along with the nugget texturing. The edges of the ti slabs (not visible in the scan) are anodized gold. Stunning!

A special knife deserves a special delivery - Upon arriving here in Winston-Salem for the SE Custom Knife Show last weekend, Darrel drove over to my place and personally handed the knife to me. Talk about service! :)

Kudos to Darrel and Rob for a fantastic knife!
