Kevin Painter Darts

Kevin Painter enjoyed a long and successful career as a professional darts player, winning multiple titles and competing in 24 World Championships. ‘The Artist’ is most remembered for his run to the final of the 2004 PDC World Championship, where he pushed Phil Taylor all the way to a sudden-death leg at the Circus Tavern. The thrilling final went to a 13th and deciding set, where Painter was narrowly edged out 6-5. The match is regarded as one of the most memorable in darts history.

Painter’s crowning moment came some years later when he won the Players Championship Finals in 2011. It was his first and only major title win, a fitting reward for his many years spent playing on the professional circuit. Painter retired from the pro ranks in 2021 but is still playing darts regularly on the World Seniors Darts Tour.

Kevin Painter Legend Darts

The Kevin Painter Legend Darts range includes two sets of steel tip darts that have been inspired by ‘The Artist’ himself. The Legend Darts Kevin Painter Ringed Darts are a signature set from this range and are made of 90% tungsten. The straight barrel design includes fine painted grooves along the length of the barrel, along with ‘The Artist’ hallmark etched onto the rear of the barrels.

These darts are also available in a knurled version that will offer more grip on the barrels, an ideal choice for players who prefer to hold a gripper dart. Each set comes complete with black Legend Darts shafts and signature Kevin Painter dart flights. Painter’s custom flights can also be purchased separately for players looking for spare sets of his flights to add to their own setup.
