The FABLE Series is a brand-new, ultra-premium line developed by Target Darts Japan, created to showcase the pinnacle of Japanese craftsmanship, technology, and design innovation. It represents the belief that darts are not merely tools - but a form of art capable of conveying emotion, meaning, and stories through form and craftsmanship. At the heart of Japanese craftsmanship lies the belief that every creation should reflect   Precision, Beauty, and Spirit. The FABLE Series embraces this philosophy, merging modern engineering mastery with the art of storytelling, crafting barrels that not only perform at the highest level but also express the cultural soul of Japan. Every line, cut, and texture is intentionally designed not just for technical excellence, but to communicate a deeper story through its form and finish. The First Edition in the FABLE Series begins with a story that carries both drama and wisdom. Inspired by the old saying: “Don’t fight fire with fire.” The tale tells of a fire dragon attempting to stop a falling meteorite by launching a blazing fireball toward the sky. The moment just before their collision—where unstoppable forces of flame and stone are about to meet—is captured and engraved on a metal plate within the package, as if recording an event lost to time. The phrase “Don’t fight fire with fire” reminds us that confronting destruction with more destruction only magnifies chaos. When two fires clash, the blaze grows beyond control—consuming everything around it. Instead, it encourages us to respond with balance and wisdom, not hostility—transforming conflict into clarity. This timeless lesson is reflected in the FABLE Series’ creative philosophy: even in power, there is grace, restraint, and depth. Each FABLE barrel is a culmination of Japan’s most advanced precision milling and surface finishing technologies, brought to life through premium materials and imaginative design. It is not merely a dart — it is a story told through steel, fire, and craftsmanship. Using Target Japan’s advanced precision milling technology, the barrel surface replicates the rugged texture of a meteorite. Each groove is meticulously carved in three-dimensional form, capturing the raw yet refined essence of space rock. The intricate sandblasted finishing adds a matte, rock-like texture—offering both a distinctive tactile feel and a natural, non-slip grip that resembles the surface of a real meteorite. Finished with a high-end PVD Silica coating, the barrel achieves a matte metallic tone that mirrors the natural coloration of a burnt meteorite after re-entry. The coating enhances durability and depth, providing exceptional wear resistance while maintaining its sophisticated, understated aesthetic. The FABLE “Fire with Fire” set embraces an artistic scattered layout, with the barrel, flights, stand, and accessories arranged in a seemingly random composition. This design choice symbolizes the chaos left behind by the meteorite’s impact—yet finds beauty within disorder, turning destruction into artistic expression. Every detail has been thoughtfully selected to complete both the visual and functional experience of the FABLE set. Each set includes a metal Identification Card engraved with a unique serial number, representing the identity of your set—and symbolizing the holder’s ownership of a piece of FABLE history. Exclusive, collectible, and personal—every FABLE barrel is one of a kind. The FABLE series comes with a unique display stand shaped like a globe. This artistic design allows the darts to be displayed as if they were floating in orbit, echoing the cosmic concept of the series. Perfect for collectors and enthusiasts alike, it turns your set into a centrepiece of craftsmanship and imagination.
