Best knives under $20?

Gotta agee with Steve Harvey on this one.
I really like the Gerber LST.
My preference is the lightweight version.
It can be had for $15.55.
It has a clip point blade style.
You can even get it in red if you are so inclined.
I have a couple of these lying in strategic places (glove compartment and briefcase).
You never know when you'll need a knife...
They can even be opened with one hand.
Also, very sharp and will maintain a good edge for a reasonable amount of time. (Not made of the latest wundermetal, but then again, you're not paying $100+ on it...)


 
Was in Wallmart last night and they had the Gerber EZ-outs (non-ATS-34) Large $20 Small $18 I carry the larger one a lot of the time, and it does a good job for me. Also, I wouldn't mind loseing it like one of my more expensive knives. I guess the sale price puts these in the $20 price range for the moment!

I guess I am not the only cheapo around here...
I have owned a Gerber LST II and it served me really well, bang fer buck, the stiff K.I.S.S. is hard to beat, and for serious cutting power cheap, the Vitronox paring knives in the clip-on nylon sheath...run about 6 bucks, and slices through rope(and fingers, fish, monofilament, and just about everything else) like
butter...
 
Ontario makes great machetes in that price range. I like the Cold Steel True Flight Thrower for an all around utility,take a lot of use/abuse,won't hurt me if I lose it,type knife in that price range. For not much more you can get the issue Ontario "kabar" and it is an excellent knife for the money.
