I think want to buy one of these three knives, help me decide which one to go with. thanks in advance.

Here are the choises:

Dough Ritter mini Grip - M4 Steel (coated)
Spydie Manix 2 - Tan - M4 steel
Spydie Manix 2 - Foliage Green - CTS XHP

If I had to choose between those three knives I would go with the Ritter Mini in M4 (pick up some Cuscadi or Wilkins custom scales). However, the Manix 2 is a bigger knife so if bigger is what you're after then I would go with the Manix 2 in CTS-XHP

is the XHP a better steel choise than M4 ?

Well xhp has a pretty good corrosion resistance while M4 is a carbon steel. M4 will rust, though you could put a really cool patina on M4. I'd personally go with XHP because it requires less maintenance.
 
the ritter is black coated M4, so wouldn't have to worrie about rust. I like the idea of later putting custom scales on it. maybe I'll go with the ritter.

The Ritter has DLC, which will help with but not prevent rust. You'll still want to put a protectant on it.
