Best Folder under $200

Varulv · Apr 17, 2009

i'm looking for a tough,reliable & durable folder with a 3 to 4.5 inches blade with thumb stud or hole.

For now my choice is the Spyderco Military

Check the Spyderco Chinook 3.
Or the ZT 0200.

Those two, the Military, the Benchmade 710, Benchmade 760, Lone Wolf T2, and I'm sure some others will come to mind

The Millie is a good choice. Here are so me. Kershaw ZT series, Benchmade 710, Benchmade Rukus, Spyderco Manix (if you can find one), to name a few. You could also have JT Clark make you one of his frame lock folders that go for around $200. There are more good choices but there are some to think about. Good Luck! Kevin

for $200.00, the majority of production folders are within your budget.

spyderco military and police 3 immediately come to mind.

just about every emerson model is under $200 as well.

i have no idea what this post means, but since it appears to be a quote of my post.....

if you can find a 12, it will be in the $270-$290 range.

I'd phone Lone Wolf (they're in Oregon) at 503-431-6777 to check on that.

thanks a lot guys

I'd just stay with the Military. It's better than or the same as most of the knives

mentioned so far. Just my .02 cents
