Benchmade Vex vs. Spyderco Tenacious vs. Kershaw Skyline

I'm currently searching for a new EDC folder that has a decent steel, cheap price tag and shouldn't be too heavy. I've basically split on these 3 knives. I would be using this for general cutting such as cardboard and rope and maybe cutting some fruit. I like the hole on the Benchmade and Spyderco but the flipper on the Kershaw is something I'd like to try. So my question is: Which knife would be best?

this is insane i have the like the exact same thread out with out the benchmade haha
 
I have all three and I think Im one of the few who does not like the Skyline. I bought one because of all the rave reviews but to me it just feels too cheap and too light. The knife just doesn't feel good in hand and I really don't care for the blade shape. What can i say i like bigger beefier knives.
 
Only one is made in the U.S. That's the only one I would consider buying.
(That is, the Kershaw Skyline.)

Edit: Ugh, zombie thread.
 
For me....The VEX was very hard to keep sharpened....There is somethign about that blade , that for me is very hard to sharpen free hand...I would also go with the Spyderco Tenacious....:thumbup:
 
Never owned or held the Vex. Own both the Tenacious and the Skyline. Both are awesome. B/w the two, I opt for the Skyline. Here's a review of the Skyline I just finished up.
