State of the art technology and traditional knifemaking may sound like an oxymoron to some, but to Darrel Ralph it's an opportunity to smack the future in the face by building knives that know no tomorrow.

Before becoming a full time custom knifemaker and designer, Darrel spent 25 years immersed in a technological career that honed his knowledge of metallurgical science, CAD-CAM design and programming and CNC machining, add to that his background in art history and his passion for knifemaking and you begin to understand Darrel's unique ability to pay homage to history while at the same time turning it on its ear.

Darrel is an extremely versatile maker. Each one of his designs combines both high-tech and artistic styling while also being fully functional. Darrel does his own engraving, carving, goldsmithing, jewelry design, production and he makes his own damascus and mokume as well.

Darrel Ralph is an accomplished knifemaker whose work is some of the most sought after in the industry today.
