A good everyday knife that won't break the bank?

Can't go wrong with Benchmade.

you should go to the........

...........I'm pretty sure you will find something there.....

Pretty hard to beat any Spyderco, Kershaw, or ZT when it comes to folders with a pocket clip. If you want a traditional folder, you practically have your pick within your budget. I'd go either Case, Queen, or Great Eastern Cutlery.

If a fixed blade is your thing, ESEE offers a wide variety of blade lengths, and the cost is easily within your budget.

I've been carrying a Boker Kalashnikov for a few months now....it's been a great EDC knife. Hard to beat it for under $50.

One of my favorites...Kershaw Leek

Amazon.com : Kershaw Leek Knife with Sandvik 1660CB Stainless-Steel/CPM-D2 Composite two-tone Stainless-Steel Blade : Hunting Knives : Sports & Outdoors

Uses a composite blade. Very sharp. Assisted opening.

But the blade in my pocket right now is:

Lightning Double Action OTF, Taiwanese Version

The double action is very convenient. I certainly wouldn't call it a "quality" knife, but for light duty work it does 95% of what I need it to do.

Did I mention how convenient it is?

Love my ZT... a little heavy but definitely a work horse!

I carry a Kershaw Leek 24/7 for the past five or six years. Inexpensive and handles any every day task. Bigger jobs I reach for the Esee.

I had one of those for years....was fishing on Shem Creek and my daughter kicked it off the dock.

It's an el cheapo for sure but it made a great tackle box knife.

Both typing at the sme time. This comes in either straight blade or cerated of which I like best.
