Jul 22 2020 - 5:24
If you love finely crafted knives, which you probably do if you are already here, then you are probably already a fan of LT Wright handcrafted knives. These knives are all designed to work hard and look amazing while they do it. We are proud to be one of few online vendors who carry knives from this quality US manufacturer of hand crafted fixed blade knives.
LT Wright was founded by their namesake, LT. LT started out like most knifemakers, working in his home shop to assemble a kit knife as a gift for his father. Little did her know that his father’s friends would be impressed enough to start putting in requests for their own knives. Before he knew it, LT was turning enough of a profit to purchase a quality grinder so he could hone the craft of grinding his own knives.
He bought that grinder from a man named R.W. Wilson who taught LT the tricks of the knifemaking trade. Once LT started to produce some quality knives we started taking them to shows and earning enough to buy even better equipment. Finally he took the jump, quit his day job, and started making knives full time. Now LT Wright knives has expanded into a full shop with several craftsmen learning the art of knife making until LT’s tutelage.
LT Wright is a brand dedicated to quality and actually listening to their customers. They take the time to assess new steel alloys and handle materials so they can always produce the best high quality knives. When they create a new design they get the input from knife enthusiasts in their private forum to make sure the design is as functional as possible before they start crafting them to sell to the public.
Over the years we have sold many of these amazing knives and today we will be looking at a few of our customer’s favorite LT Wright handcrafted knives.
LT Wright Knives Genesis - The Genesis is a 7.5” overall with a 3 inch spear point blade. These mid sized knives are perfectly suited to a wide range of tasks. From kitchen work to setting up camp, the Genesis is a shockingly versatile little blade. The blade is constructed from ⅛” A2 tool steel for incredible edge retention.
Whether you need a sturdy camp knife or a general go to knife for everyday carry, you cannot go wrong with the Genesis.
LT Wright Knives Bushcrafter - The Bushcrafter is a practical knife that gets the job done, a lot like most folks who practice bushcraft. These knives are 8 ⅜” with a 4 ⅛” blade. The Blade’s sturdy A2 steel construction and spear point give it the strength and shape you need to accomplish a wide range of bushcraft tasks. Whether you’re going to be doing some hard chopping, the Scandi grind on the blade keeps the Bushcrafter nice and strong.
The simple broomstick style handle is comfortable enough to work with for hours and the knife comes with a convenient D ring leather dangler sheath with a built in firesteel loop so you can always be prepared.
LT Wright Knives Bushbaby - The Bushcrafter is so popular that the team at LT Wright Knives scaled it down to create the Bushbaby. Don’t let the compact size of these knives fool you, they are just as tough as their big brothers. These knives measure 6.75” overall with a 2.8” blade. The handle scales on these knives are slightly tapered, making it easy to choke up on the handle for fine work.
LT Wright Knives Northern Hunter - The Northern Hunter is an undeniably impressive looking knife. The design is reminiscent of a Canadian belt knife with a few unique touches. The unique blade profile comes to a spear point and is great as a hunting knife for cleaning game or use as a general utility knife for batoning kindling and other camp shores.
The Blade is constructed from AEB-L, a Swedish stainless razor steel. The fine grain of this steel offers superior edge retention when properly heat treated.
