Kershaw Tyrade or a Buck-Strider 880 (might have to shop around a bit to meet your price point)

The 880 is AWESOME... you just inspired me to add that knife to my list. I've owned the ATS34 and BG42 versions before. I miss that brick.

Manix 2 seems to be a first rate hard user for the money.

+1 for Junkyard Dog II (preferably CB), or G10 Tyrade.

 

[Zombie Zeke]

Cold Steel Spartan best bang for the buck

Cold Steel Lawman

Spyderco Manix

all come to mind, I love knives in this price range, can't wait to get my hands on the TOPS/Buck CSAR.

Picked mine up awhile back (NIB). It's a 154CM model and cuts beautifully. :thumbup:
