All About Pocket Knives

Anyone here have experience with LT Wright Fixed Blades? It seems they're good quality, but I always see what I deem to be "sub-par" finishing on those knives, especially on the handle pins. If anyone has any thoughts on this I'd like to hear what you have to say.

I had that exact concern myself. I sent an email to KSF, a prominent dealer of LT Wright knives with a close-up photo (their own picture by the way) of the pins in the handle. They looked as though a 10-year old kid put those pins in.

The fine people at KSF assured me that it's "just the way they do things", and that their knives are top quality "working" knives.

Now, I don't have any knives by LT Wright, but I've heard nothing but goods things about them so I would assume that all those people can't be wrong. I'm sure someone here that owns knives by LTW will weigh in here shortly. Don't know if that eases your concerns but it's all I've got.

I own about a dozen. Can’t say enough about the quality. No pin issues on any of them. Or maybe I don’t I understand your concerns.

This is what I was referring to. There are gaps and the finish on the pins look jagged, not smooth. (Click on image to enlarge)

Compare to Bark River. Pins are nice and smooth and no gaps. But I would not hesitate to buy an LT Wright knife. Not for a second. In fact, there a two that I want.

I think the problem is common with that style pin/fastener. I've see more than a few, high dollar Loveless knives with similar gaps.

These are Loveless Bolts they are not pins.
