The other A Wright & Sons knife...

I purchased one of the stacked leather ones after seeing this thread and whilst the price is good the QC is terrible. Mine arrived with dark marks all over the blade that I could not wipe off and the pommel was dented and scratched. I have sent it staright back for a replacement. I could also see gaps between the blade and guard. Provided you can get a decent one then for the money they are a really lovely looking knife but I suspect even on the next one I may have to fill in gaps around the guard with epoxy to stop the damp getting in and rusting inside without you knowing it.

Hmmm....I was thinking of getting one but on that basis I think i'll leave it! Might keep my eye out for an old one at a car boot tho' :cool:

Well hats off to their customer service at least. Within 48 hrs of returning the knife a new one has arrived in perfect condition with a letter of apology for the oversight and a refund of my postage. Credit where credit is due to give my earlier comments some balance. Tis a beautiful knife and much prettier than the Kabar model, not that I dislike the Kabar one.
