Rutlands Ltd have a good selection of quality hinges http://www.rutlands.co.uk/cabinet-hardware/hinges-&-stays, or check out the range of Brusso hinges from Classic Hand Tools http://www.classichandtools.co.uk/acatalog/Brusso-Hinges.html

Not wishing to sound overly snooty, but the picture isn't of a nice hinge! Brusso are nice but very, very expensive. Ian at Hawthorne Crafts has his own range of very nice and also cheaper hinges that are also easier to fit and come with spare screws and a drill bit!

if this is for a nice case Reaperman, then pay that little extra and go for solid brass hinges. 'H' hinges can be bought in varying sizes, if you don't fancy letting hinges into the woodwork.

So I suppose I agree with Aidan.
