Gentlemen's folder

For size, Buck 309 Companion. It isn't real fancy, but it is small and perfect to not draw attention while still having tons of usefulness.
 
My office carry is a Jake Hoback custom ultra. Throburn 19s has caught my eyes as one also.
 
For traditional lockbacks, Moki makes knives with outstanding fit and finish.
For traditional slipjoints, Great Eastern has a good selection.
For a modern folder, the Spyderco Air is great (small, and so light you don't even realize that you have it in your pocket). If you can find a Benchmade 481-1 CF Shoki on the secondary market, I highly recommend it.
 
A Benchmade Sequal 707.
The perfect gentleman.

One that has not been mentioned is the Boker Urban Trapper. Slim light with a flipper. there are a couple of versions, I edc the G10 and it looks very sophisticated. Another plus it that it wont break the bank.

The Mnandi is another great choice of course as others have mention. The William Henry EDC line is on par with the Mnandi and another great choice.

Here is an excellent gentlemen's folder. Its just under a 3" blade( still useful), just over 2 ounces and M390...and it matches a lot of my slacks.
 
Admit-tingly don't do the gentleman thing a whole lot! But I don't think i'd have a problem with my new GEC 47 or toting my BM940 around.

I looked at one the other day as I was thinking of buying the Urban Trapper. My judgement is that the blade isn't really heavy enough to be a flipper. So, I am passing because of the design.

I thought so too, but I am very pleased with the flipping action. The first day it needed a little wrist flick, but since then it opens up very easily with no flick. It feels really good, it does not have the loud "thwack" that heavy blades do, its hard to explain. It just sounds sophisticated when opening.
 
I carry a snakewood inlay small Sebenza 21 at the office. It's lightweight and beautiful, but still built to handle just about any reasonable use.
