Darrel began making knives in 1987. The first knife he ever made was a Butterfly patterned flipper. His first knife sale was in 1992. His designs set the knife word on fire! His knives garnered the attention of the U.S. Government resulting in a contract to make switchblades for the military. Darrel passed away in 2021.
