Chas Daly started out as a maker in Prussia, late 19th Century, with excellent doubles and drillings. Since then, they've been made in a variety of places, including Japan and Spain. I've read the new ones are made by Sabbati, in Italy.

I've no idea of their quality, but for $300 I'd expect a worm in the apple.
