ok i will edc this knife but i do not abuse my knives my hands are medium it needs to be a folder so no fixed blades or case no fixed blades because i carry the izula 2 and no case because i have alot the knife i was considering was a 950 rift weight is no problem but size is no shorter than 3 inch and no bigger than 5 inch so start throwing out suggestions yes i know i dont use caps,periods and spell things wrong but guess what i dont care:D:D
 
I picked up a ZT030X used on the forum, for under $150. Word I don't give an funk about grammer, but I try.

But that might be to big for your girly hands, and to DIESEL for your light cutting dutys. Maybee you should get a CF spyderco caly 3 zdp189 laminated blade. Its pretty thin and a real good slicer, And that zdp-189 is hard steel That holds its edge. I just got one like new in box for 100 shipped.
Its the spyderco next to the zt0560.

BM710, 3.9 inches of M390, Axis Lock , $149.95 . that's should beat regular para 2 and sprint para 2 is well over 150
 
ZT 0350, Spyderco Gayle Bradly, Benchmade 710, and the Hogue EX01 are among my favorites at that price.
 
If you can find a 30X for around that price then that is by far the best knife you could get at that price, even used. If you cant find a used one for that price then I would save an extra $25 dollars and buy a blem ZT 300 from Dave, KershawGuy here on BF.

The ZT 200 and ZT 350 (especially the StoneWashed version) are amazing knives for that price too. Ive had three ZT 350s, I ended up getting rid of me DLC coated ones when I found the ZT 350SW. Ive only had one ZT 200 and got rid of it, but only to fund my next purchase. I will buy another one, but Im going to try and hunt down the ZT 200KW instead of the DLC one. They are amazing knives, built to last. I like the 350 more than the 200 just because I like slim knives for comfortable EDC and I love the blade shape of the 350. But even though I like the 350 more, I still want another 200 because its a knife that makes you feel confident when its in your hand, it just feels like theres no way it could break on you. I like the size and shape too. There are only two reasons I got rid of it: 1. I dont like DLC, but I WILL have one in KW. 2. Im about to buy a knife Ive been drooling over for years but didnt want to hurt my wallet too much. So I sold it for about half of what Im going to pay for my new knife, Zero Tolerance 303. :D

I would also recommend a Benchmade Griptilian, I have a 550HG and LOVE IT! And because of its price you could either buy TWO, or you could buy one and slap on some custom scales and pimp it out, or you could make a 'Custom Griptilian' on Benchmade.com and choose what color of scales you want, have your name or something badass etched into the blade, and pick between different super steels.

Good Luck!

I think the Chokwe's street price is over $150 now, so this.

I just bought one last night, paid $138 for it. It has a larger than normal price range and I think the average might be over $150, but it can be done for under that, and I hope after receiving it I will highly recommend it. The Stretch is an awesome choice along with the Sage series though. Cannot vouch for the PM2 yet, I am waiting on the green one.
 
Al Mar Falcon or Eagle. Both are nice light, but solid knives that are known as some of the best slicers.
