So, one of my best friends, Abbott, is coming back into 40k, and he and I talked about what he might go into, and he told me that he has his heart set on nothing but Wraithblades, Melee Wraithknights, Melee Wraithlords, and a few Wraithseers. So, here is my question. In 1500, 2000, and say...3000, how many of these wraith constructs could I be facing? He says that he would most likely be taking combinations of that sword and shield, with maybe a few doule sword units in between.

Because someone, not me of course, might have inadvertently boasted that they would gladly match him point for point in Tyranid Warriors and Melee Hive Tyrants...

Veeeeery hastily and roughly made with battlescribe, without options:

At 1500 - 3×5 wraithblades, 1 lord, 2 knights, 2 seers
At 2000 - 2×10+1×5 wraithblades, 3 knights, 2 seers
A t 3000 - 5×10 wraithblades, 4 knights, 2 seers

You cant have 4 wraith knights their heavy support....

At 3000 points, that should be an apocalypse match, and though I do not have the book, isn't apocalypse a "no FOC" type game?

And then you can have double force org

At 2000+ points you can have the double FOC.

You could also take a dataslate.

Ghostwarriors base 960
3 wraithknights 720
Spiritseer 70
2x3 jetbikes 102

1852. So anywhere from that to 1999 for 4 knights under 2k.
