Most players get one signature dart. Luke Humphries has five generations of one — TX1 through TX5 — and because Red Dragon keeps the earlier generations in production, you can hold the whole evolution side by side. There are very few ranges in darts where you can do that.

Reading the TX range

The number is the generation, not the quality. A TX2 is not a worse dart than a TX5; it is a different barrel from a different point in his career, and plenty of players prefer the earlier profiles. All sit at 90% tungsten. Alongside them are the TX1 Pioneer in Switch Point form, the Prestige, and a 50 Year Anniversary edition marking Red Dragon's half-century. Browse them in Luke Humphries darts.

Switch Point, if you want to tune

The TX1 Pioneer carries Switch Point, Red Dragon's interchangeable point system — shared with Winmau, since both brands sit under Nodor. It means you can change point length and finish with a small tool rather than committing to whatever came in the box. See Red Dragon points and the wider Switch Point releases.

The 2024 final

Humphries won his first World Championship in January 2024, beating Luke Littler 7-4 at Alexandra Palace after trailing 4-2 and taking five straight sets. He had become world number one days earlier. It remains the only World Championship match Littler has lost.

Flights and shirts

His Hardcore No.2 flights come in the full run of colourways, alongside official Tour and World Champion playing shirts — all in Humphries gear. The complete range sits in the full Luke Humphries collection, and the rest of the brand in the Red Dragon Shop.

Frequently Asked Questions

▶ Which TX generation should I buy?

Later is not automatically better — they are genuinely different barrel profiles. Compare the grip patterns and shapes on the listings rather than defaulting to the highest number, and pick the one that matches how you hold a dart.

▶ What is the TX1 Pioneer?

A Switch Point version of the TX1, so the points are interchangeable using a small tool rather than fixed in place.

▶ Are Red Dragon Switch Points the same as Target Swiss Points?

No, they are different systems from different manufacturers, though both belong to the M2.5 thread family and Red Dragon markets Switch Point as compatible across the major M2.5 systems.

▶ When did Luke Humphries win the World Championship?

January 2024, beating Luke Littler 7-4 in the final at Alexandra Palace.
