QjHD7B
yes its chinese but its a good good quiality, i can say more than 100$ quiality. Anyways i didnt buy it because it is a bit long. My spec:

Fixed blade, and i like not so large handes, exmpl: 8/20.5 knife: 4.03/10.25cm blade and a 4.03/10.25cm handle or even less handle...

Total leng: no more than 8/ 20.5cm
Knife thicc: no less than 0.16 / 4mm
Handle: i like G-10, but can be other
Shealth: small Kydex/plasitc with clip so i can put it inside jean my jean and no one notices it
Blade: i like 14c28n with temper sub cero, but im open mind, any similar good its ok
Edge: i like the convex and flat but im open mind to other
I dont like really width blades like on Ruike i prefer type of Bark River edc.
Price: no more than 90$ please i really like that type o look like Bark River, please i beg you all thank you very muchs♡♡♡
If you need something just telling me, sorry bad english
 
Somthing similar to Real Steel Bushcraft II. And like Bark River EDC, thank you everyone♡
 
Seems like Boker has paired with some great custom makers in the last couple years. I know their production versions of some custom gems totally fit your parameters.

In my opinion the best edc fixed blade knife is the Spyderco Street Beat. They are still making the liteweight version for just over 100$

The only problem is the sheath which dulls the edge if you let it drag against the sheath.

Another great choice for just a little more money is the Bradford Guardian 3.

Spyderco Street Beat is the knife on the left.

I'm not well versed in the sub-$100 range, especially if you want stainless. I used to have a bunch; but I got rid of all of them...and I dont recall any that were worth recommending.
What I have now in that range, I am happy to recommend:
Spyderco Mule - a few steel options available.
LT Wright Patriot
BK11

Also, the first picture is a Bark River Bushcrafter, not EDC...though either one is twice your desired price.
Your best bet is to go to one of the major knife sites, and start your search. Blade HQ has one of the better filter selections; so I started there (Fixed blades, less than $100, blade lengths from 3-4 inches). Click the link, add whatever other filters you want, and start scrolling. You'll still miss out on a bunch of options; but it will expose you to a lot of choices.

Go custom/handmade for only $59, with Kydex and micarta or G10 slabs.

He will also do a "thin" for you with blue, grey, or blade G10. Those slabs are only 1/8", yielding a finished handle width of around 3/8". Great for edc...

I have one in black micarta and love it. Great knife for $59.

It may be a bit “rustic” for some, but very high quality blade/handle and cuts great.
 
I have had good experiences using the bk11 as an edc fixed blade, just find a way to keep the sheath in one place using a clip or something like that

Landi knives have a great reputation. Dude has been in business for a while and is sold at places like CollectorKnives. If you don't want to trust it that is your choice, but you are doing yourself a disservice.
