Alternatives to the Spyderco Civilian?

Interesting. Does it have a liner lock? (link didn't say)

Yep, liner lock. Blade comes pretty sharp, the jimping all over the place works great, the knife really locks into your hand. Only complaint about the knife is that the liner is very stiff and a little sharp on the edges, so my thumb was getting tore up a bit before it broke in.
 
Thanks for all the replies.

From what I can tell, it seems the Cold Steel Black Talon is the best knife of the bunch. More costly, but it looks like it may be worth it. I took a look at some videos on the CSBT, and it sure looks to be effective.
 
The other alternative to the Superhawk is the Spyderhawk. It can be had in both PE and SE blades. And if you don't like the yellow handle, give it a dye job.
