I was at Wally World getting my hunting license and see that they have lots of Winchester knives really cheap, like 15 bucks for a decent enough looking fixed blade. Are they any good?

(I have a thing for good inexpensive knives, schrade sharpfinger, buck 110, KaBar USMC)

Also, they had a couple of buck folders, that were wooden handles that were like skeletonized by having holes in them. Are they worth the 20 bucks they were on sale for?
 
The ones you see at Wally World are made-in-China cheapies, probably ok for beaters. The ones made for Bluegrass Cutlery by Queen are high quality, and priced accordingly. I have a wharncliff whittler and stockman/whittler hybrid that are extremely nice.

Torz is right. The Blue Grass Cutlery Winchesters are the way to go. Quality built traditional folders.
