Hello guys, i am looking for a knife sub $125. so what i will be doing with knife is edc it. I do not use knives like a prybar/abuse them. My hands are medium to small. I have most Spyderco's i am just looking for something new.
I recently purchased my first Spyderco knife (PM2) and have thoroughly enjoyed using it. If you're a fan of Spyderco, I'd suggest trying a Benchmade knife. Benchmade is one of the few production companies that produces great knives in a similar price range and backs up their products with insanely good customer service. I'd suggest the following models for you (especially considering small/medium hands):
(1) Benchmade 940 - The 940 is, without a doubt, the most handy EDC knife that I own. It packs more blade for the weight and size than any other knife in my collection, and it looks sharp and classy enough to wear with a suit. The 940 is a -very- unique knife and worth owning. If you shop around, you should be able to find one for $120-$140ish.
(2) Benchmade 710 - If you're looking for a slightly larger knife, the 710 is a great choice. It reminds me of the PM2 in a lot of ways, but I usually prefer to EDC smaller knives like the 940.
(3) Benchmade Doug Ritter Mini Grip - I think the 940 and 710 are better choices over the Ritter Mini Grip (never cared for the handle on the grip) but it is still a fantastic knife.
