A new EVERY day carry decision. Input? (LONG)

Look around and see if you can find a Spyderco Calypso Jr. Lightweight. They are discontinued, but there are still some around. They are wonderful EDC knives.
 
Don't laugh but how bout the AR3.00, its not top of the line but seams to meet your specs...works for me :) I think gerber did a great job with this knife.
 
My recommendation- don't carry other "stuff" in yuor knife pocket. that's how I view my front strong-side pocket - my knife pocket. Everyhthing else goes in the three other available pockets.

Keeps stuff like coins and junk from getting in your folder, and especially if have any though whatsoever for SD, you don't want to pull out a bunch of other junk while addressing a threat.
 
I'm not a steel snob, and I know what feels right.

I carry a big wad of keys (three vehicles, two homes, warehouse) down in my right front pocket (almost exclusively Wrangler Jeans) with a Kershaw Ken Onion #1640 Vapor clipped at the back. The Vapor frame locks, flicks open easily, and is quite sharp as it comes. I haven't used the crap out of mine, and hasen't needed (although I do sometimes crock stick it) sharpening.

Most other of my owned knives make it hard to get the keys in and out. In the back right is my wallet. Sometimes another knife (often CRKT M16-03Z) rides to the outside of wallet.

Of the BM stuff I've handled the 940 series sounds most like what you are after. I like my 350 fine, except for the BT coating (pure crap are black blades!).

Oh, the very neatest thing about the Vapor (and Vapor II) is they cost so very little!!!

Joe Shmoe = CHEAP!!!! But not Stupid!
