Luke Littler became the youngest PDC World Champion in history in January 2025, beating Michael van Gerwen 7-3 in the final at just 17. The Edge is Target’s player edition collaboration built around his “Nuke” nickname and geometric branding, sitting apart from the G1 barrel he actually competes with as a more collector-focused release.
The barrel is fully CNC-milled from 95% tungsten and finished in a deep DLC blue coating, with Littler’s logo laser-etched into the centre band. Rather than a hands-on verdict, this page pulls together the manufacturer’s published specifications and how the set has gone down with owners and independent reviewers so far.

How They’ve Been Received
The set is new enough that owner feedback is still building, but the direction so far is clear. Reviewers single out the DLC finish and the dual-length Swiss Point system as standout touches, while the grip gets a more measured response than the rest of the package.
What Reviewers Say
Independent reviewer Max at Darts Reviews TV scored the set 9.4 out of 10, calling out the presentation as the standout feature:
“The whole package feels closer to a high-end collector drop than a typical signature dart.”
The same review rated the grip a more moderate 3 out of 5, noting the edges “catch lightly on the finger” rather than digging in. With the pool of owner feedback still small for a recent release, that’s the main data point beyond the strong early Amazon average, and it lines up with the manufacturer’s own description of a re-machined, multi-directional texture rather than an aggressive one.
What owners consistently praise
- Premium 95% tungsten barrel with a distinctive DLC blue finish
- Two point lengths included, so players can tune feel without buying spares
- Strong presentation, with a branded wallet and 1-month DartCounter access in the box
Common criticisms
- Priced well above Target’s standard signature ranges
- Grip is moderate rather than aggressive, so heavy grippers may want to feel it first
- Still a small pool of owner reviews given how recently it launched
The Grip: What to Expect
Target describes the grip as a multi-directional spiral, combining vertical grooves, diamond cuts and 45-degree angled machining, with select zones re-machined to expose a contrasting texture. The one independent numeric rating available puts it at 3 out of 5, in line with that description rather than at odds with it.
Expect a grip that adds confidence without feeling sharp. It should suit most grip styles reasonably well, though players who rely on aggressive texture to lock the barrel in place may still prefer something with deeper cuts.
Who They Suit
The Edge suits fans who want Littler’s branding and a standout finish in a premium, collector-grade set, backed by a barrel spec that holds up for match use. The dual Swiss Point lengths are a genuine practical touch, letting players try a shorter or longer point without buying anything extra.
It is not the barrel Littler actually throws in competition. That’s the Target Luke Littler G1, a 90% tungsten set at a noticeably lower price, and it’s worth a look if you want his match setup rather than the player edition.

The Consensus
Early reception points to a set that lands on presentation as much as performance. Buyers rate it highly on Amazon, and the one detailed independent review available is close to a perfect score, with the finish and included extras doing a lot of the work. The grip is the one area reviewers mark down slightly, describing it as moderate rather than aggressive. Given how recently it launched, it’s worth watching for more owner feedback as the review pool grows, but the early signs are strong for anyone drawn to the collector-edition positioning.
How we compile this page
We don’t throw every dart ourselves. Instead we gather the manufacturer’s published specifications and weigh up the reception from owners and independent reviewers, then flag where they disagree so you can make up your own mind. Where a headline rating comes from manufacturer-hosted reviews, we say so, because those tend to skew positive.
