For the record, I feel the same that the Cryo is too slippery - which is why I'm super glad Kershaw released a G10 version of it last year.
I also agree that the Tenacious is just a bit too big for EDC - and they do make the Persistence, which is a shrunken version of the Tenacious, with a 2.75 inch blade vs the Tenacious' 3-3/8 inch blade. If you wanna go even smaller, the Ambitious has a 2.25" blade. All 3 knives share a similar design (though the Ambitious is small enough that the proportions might look a little weird to some).
A few other knives of note that are standouts in the sub-$50 price range:

Can you be a little more specific on what you prefer? Flipper/non-flipper? thumb stud/thumb hole/thumb disk? assisted/non assist?
I had a Spyderco Persistence for a while. Its good, but not great like the Tenacious.
Few updates since my last post.

Sorry guys, I usually don't post so often but couldn't let this great deal slip away.
This is basically what many knife fans were asking for from Kershaw for a long time - one of their most popular models with a better (higher end) steel and not 8Cr13 once again.
Well, they did it with this BladeHQ exclusive Cryo that has a D2 blade and is on sale for only $5 more than the regular G10 Cryo is sold on Amazon.
As for the knife itself - it was designed by Rick Hinderer and seems like a great budget EDC option with a steel frame, 2 opening methods and a 4-way deep carry pocket clip.
The TX-Tool promotion is valid while supplies last (if someone knows how to check if it is still on - please write it in the comments).

The black rubber insert is glued in place, but it is in there well. Mine hasn't fallen out, although admittedly, it's not one of my more frequently used knives (mine sits in my tool box as an extra utility/beater knife should I need it). Worst case, if it does come out, you can just glue it back into place.
Or, if you want something along those lines (shorter blade and relatively stout knife), the Cryo or Cryo G10 may be worth a look.
I like Kershaw Cryo a lot

Totally understand if he doesn't like the Cryo, though. It has served me well and is cheap enough that I don't feel bad using it for tough jobs, but smooth action is pretty smooth.
