ESEE, Emerson, or Entrek?

I'm currently seeking a new tactical knife which I made a previous thread about but now I've cut down the options to the three mentioned in the title, I believe.

The conditions of this knife I'm searching for are the following:

- It must be 6" or under
- Kydex or Zytel sheath, I'd be wearing this on a Mercharness or IWB
- Cannot be double edged
- For folders, ideally, I'd like to have a wave form opener of some sort although automatics and assisted openers are an option as well
- I don't have a HUGE preference in steels

Now here's the most important requirement - Price. I'd like to keep the price under $150 but my budget can be stretched up to $200 for the right knife.

The ESEE's under consideration are the 4, 5, and 6

I'm open to suggestions in regards to Entrek knives although it appears that very few of their knives meet all of the prerequisites I have laid out.

I've already got an Emerson Super Karambit although that may or may not be traded for something else in the near future.

What do you guys think would be a solid road to follow from the above three makers?
 
ESEE rc 4 if you want a good medium sized blade. If you want longer go for the 6. I steer away from the 5 myself as I find it a little too fat for most regular stuff. If you want a super fat tank, go with the rc 5. Have no experience with the others mentioned, so I cant say good or bad. I do know ESEE has a great warranty and if you bust it, they replace it :thumbup:

One more knife i may suggest is the BUSSE Boss street. It is a little over budget but I think you would be really happy with this blade. Just something to look at. I am a huge fan of Busse, but rats are great too.
