    Ben And Lois Orford...... I'd definitely buy from them again.

    I recently bought a new crook knife from Ben Orford. I have to say I would highly recommend buying from Ben and Lois to anyone. It arrived in great condition and very quickly. The product was very high quality and performed amazingly well. I know this might sound cheesy but inside the packaging was a very nice HAND WRITTEN thank you note, which is a nice touch. If you are ever in the market for tools or leatherwork, give them a try as you won't be disappointed.

    He really does value his custom. I'm looking into buying one of his Sloyd knives.

    I can only agree with all the above
    I have just taken delivery of a mocotaugan from Ben and it's is gorgeous. Feels great in the hand, sharp as hell and, this sounds daft, it smell great!
    Will be using it a lot in my workshop v soon, as well as this weekends north Wales meet. Might post a review up :-)
    Already have plans for more tools from him and Lois.

    Isn't it nice when someone says "that's a great piece of kit, where did you buy that", then you can modestly reply "you can't buy it, I made it myself". The moral is, it's amazing what you can achieve if you put your mind to it.
