Get a Camillus Cuda Maxx and have Dirk convert it to tip-up carry for you. It'll "wave" out of your pocket like lightening! (By catching the wing on the corner of your pocket as you draw.) Dirk does great work and adds a few extra custom touches and he's cheap too. Look up my post about him in GB&U.
Forget the ones with the robo-assist, in my opinion. I think they're all faster without them.
I've owned a couple Rekat SIFUs. I liked everything about them EXCEPT the roll-lock. I think that lock is an awful thing and imparts too much resistance to the blade upon opening which makes it hard to flick open.
Cold Steel makes several lockbacks that are 5"-6". They have plastic handles but can be had for less than about $60 I think.
SOG makes a cool knife called the Pentagon Elite II. The only thing I don't like about that one is the Zytel handles and delicate pocket clip, but it's definately worth checking out.
Can you tell I like big folders too?
I've checked out and carried quite a few, but once I learned about the tip-up "wave" trick on the Maxxes I stopped looking.
