Best Assited Opener under $100?

As a pharmacist, he'll probably need to open alot of mail and packaging. Will be wearing dress slacks most likely (therfore needs knife to be fairly trim and light), and will probably have to consider the "sheeple" thing. The Kershaw Leek is hard to beat for that sort of application. It can be had for less than $100 in S30V or just a little more in ZDP-189. Even a Kershaw chive would work.
Spyderco Delica or similar would also be nice, though not an AO knife.

Couldn't say this any better myself. For his job, I would suggest the leek. Its very thin, AO and doesn't look like a scary knife. They come in many differnt colors as well as variations. I would highly suggest the leek!
 
Wow! Great responses from everyone. I think I will go with the Kershaw Leek after reading DoctaD's post. He describled the knife and it's applications just as I was imagining it!!! My brother will be opening a lot of boxes of stock and digging cotton out of small pill bottles. He will also be wearing dress slacks to work; so thin is a better choice I think. Thanks again to all who responded!!!
 
Get the Kershaw Leek with a polished S30V blade and G10 handle for around $60.00 on ebay --- your knife connection is the seller. This thing is a winner all around.
