I have this lil' guy and I love it.

Lol, alright for example:

  • Spyderco Delica 4 FFG: For your price range this is going to be the "best" steel you can get in a near 3" folding knife (VG-10). By best I mean the best edge retention in a stainless steel. However, being over 2.5" in some places (Chacago for example) the knife will be illegal. Also, many people do not like the look of the spyderhole as it can be seen as aggressive in office environments. Also the FRN handles, while very strong, have a cheap/plastic feel to them.

  • Spyderco Tenacious: Compared to the Delica, 8CR13MOV is a "worse" stainless steel (not as good edge retention, more prone to chipping during heavy impacts). However, the extra blade length is better for many outdoor tasks (breaking down tree branches). The handle is also G10, which is slightly tougher and has a much better feeling in hand than FRN.

  • Spyderco Centofante 3: A more "gentlemanly" and "office friendly" version of the Delica with a slightly longer blade. Again, VG-10 and FRN.

  • Kershaw Cryo II: Same steel as the tenacious. Metal handles slightly tougher than G10. Flipper action has "cool" factor. The blade grind makes the tip a touch stronger than on the tenacious.

  • Kershaw Skyline: One of the most iconic of Kershaw's knives. Hollow ground blade makes it great at slicing tasks.

  • Esee Izula: Skeletonized fixed blade. 1095 Steel is significantly better than the other steels listed at "chopping" tasks as it is not prone to chipping at all. It is NOT stainless and so the blade has a protective coating over most of it. The steel will require mineral oil/cleaning to prevent rusting.

  • Becker BK 24: Similar to the Esee Izula but D2 steel which has better edge retention and more corrosion resistance than 1095. It is also much harder to sharpen. Many think the BK24's handle is also less comfortable, the sheath is worse, and there are less available after market modifications.

  • Ontario Rat Series (linked the RAT I. RAT 2 similar but smaller): Ontario's version of the tenacious. Bladeshape generally more people friendly. Another very popular beater option.

  • Morakniv Knives (there are MANY, this is just one): Highly regarded in the "bushcraft" community. High carbon steel (similar to 1095) with a scandi-grind which is great for field sharpening and woodworking. Only partial tangs so not advised to use for battoning tasks or chopping.

  • Kershaw OD-2: Gentlemanly knife with great flipping action.

    There are a LOT more suggestions I could add...

Hello Dr.

I recommend:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001PM9FEE

It's faster than an assisted folder! So much awesome for a small folder. Grip feels like G-10. Less than $15.00

Another small blade you might want to look up is the titanium Boker, with 440c blade. It has a 2 inch blade, wide like a spyderco and can be deployed with one hand.

What EDC do you have now, the Tenacious?

Kershaw OD-2

It's not really a collectors item but it's cheap and small...and pretty good imo.

u/Cash-Machine · 2 pointsr/knifeclub

I was in almost the exact same position recently. I had purchased a Flash I and was quite disappointed with it. I decided to give SOG another chance and picked up a Twitch I, since, like you, I enjoy small knives.

First, it's real small. About the size of a Spyderco Ladybug. But unlike that tiny classic, the size of the Flash I works against it: as an assisted flipper, your fingers have very little real estate to activate the flipper action [which by the way is incredibly stiff on mine]. I find it has similar issues when it comes to deactivating the back lock.

Like my Flash, the Twitch came to me with substantial side-to-side blade play, and tightening the pivot does nothing to remove it. It doesn't have the nasty flex that my Flash does, nor does it rattle like a tin can, but in general I find the fit and finish to be similarly cheap.

I would recommend against it, and for my part will not be buying any more SOG products at this point. If you're looking for a good, small flipper at a budget price, check out the Kershaw OD-2.

This is where I bought mine hurr

u/TheStuffle · 1 pointr/knives

$41 for a Skyline

$20 for an OD-2

If you HAVE to have something SS all over, it'll be heavier and less grippy. But the $25 Byrd Robin might work.

u/PhenomenalDouche · 1 pointr/knifeclub

Cold Steel Mini Tuff Lite, in the same size range as the Dragonfly series but IMO superior for use (though I have a bunch of both).

Also, the Kershaw OD-2 is a fun little knife if you like flippers (neat mechanism on that one).
