You been drinking Duncan?

In answer to the first post, the fit and finish hasn't been great on the few I've seen, especially the antler versions. But they are good solid workhorses in the same shape as the Woodlore.

I had a rosewood handled one,A very good knife that will do everything that any other will do.

If you search "wright" on British blades here http://www.britishblades.com/forums/search.php?searchid=2558740

You will see they are not highly thought of. Having said that most of the negative comments are regarding fit and finish rather than function.

I've got the Stag Handled version and I can Honestly say that it's a Great Knife,I've had a Better sheath made for mine,and it's a Great Package for a Bargain Price.

I was looking at these at the Chatsworth Show, and they looked very good for the money. Cant see why it wouldn't do most of the usual tasks well.

Thanks for that guys
I have a woodlore at the minet but as it is getting an expensive knife i am scared of it getting stolen or me leaving it somewhere
so i have been looking for a replacement as an everyday user .
What would your advice be around the $200 dollar mark? (I do favour the woodlore look though)
