Best 50 dollar knife

Centofante3 or Delica4 FRN or Native. I would have a hard time to choose one over other; unless you need a bigger knife, than it is Endura

Well whats wrong with those Cold Steel Voyagers? I still don't see why people hate them so much. Are they really that bad? I mean they have got ot be better than my Paraframe II, which is good enough for a work knife (just dont even think about trusting the lock)...

The Voyager blade steel is not on par with the VG-10 Spyderco uses
in the Delica and Native III; nor with the S30V in the Native.

Native is S30V FRN
Native II is AUS10
Native III is VG10, or at least mine is.
 
The Voyagers that I have had always cut very well, but the clips didn't hold up on all of them. The edges seem to normally be ground very thin, which makes them cut well and sharpen up pretty easily, but I have seen a couple non-knife folks roll and/or chip an edge on one badly. Really not a bad knife at all, just not one of my personal preferences. I would much rather a Delica, a Centofante 4, a Vex or one of a couple of the larger Victorinox SAKs for the money. YMMV.

About a year ago I got a Bladetech Pro Hunter Lite, it is a really really good knife for the price, most places under $50 and I've heard of people getting them for around $40 if they shop around. I've been EDC'ing it for the last year at work and it's stood up really well.

Spyderco Endura 4 unless you need a smaller blade ... Then Delica 4.

Best,

I have seen SOG flashes at LOWE's for about $49.00. Or you can pick up any one of the sub $50. Kershaw's at WallMart. If you eBay, there is a boatload of Kershaws/CRKT's/Buck's/SOG's/and even a few Spyderco's.....
 
If you will watch Home Shopping Network, you can get about 40 good knives as well as a sword for about $50. They will usually have about 4 different types and you get 10 of each. They are real stainless steel, but maybe not the greatest, but they will cut stuff, pluss the sword. Sometimes you will get a nice box to store and show your cutlery. That is your best deal for $50, and you get 39 extra knifes plus a sword.

I hope you are joking
 
I would say either a Case amber bone large stockman (with CV blades) or a Byrd G10 Cara Cara.

I'm in love with the big Case right now. The carbon steel blades are starting to get a nice patina to them, I'm liking this one more and more.
 
For <2", the Boker Subcom F. For 2.5", the Camillus Sizzle.

In the 3" range:
BM HK30
BM Mini-Ambush
Camillus Blaze
Camillus Cuda EDC
Kershaw Mini-Cyclone
Spyderco Native and Delica4 (I prefer the Native)

larger folders:
BM Ambush
BM Vex
Camillus Heat

Spyderco Endura
