Welcome to the forum, Zakk!

I'd suggest a Spyderco Endura: I think it would serve both EDC and camping/hiking use--very pocketable yet large enough for bigger tasks. The Endura is offered in sabre or full-flat grinds, and you have the option to go serrated or plain edge. If you want to save a few bucks, check out a Byrd Cara Cara 2...

Good luck!
 
I have a Spyderco Tenacious and it is one heck of a folder. I also have an Ontario Rat-1 folder that I like.
 
Just throwing this out there: Izula could be the answer.

On the folder front, i think that the kershaw junkyard dog II could be perfect. it is solid, the ergonomics are great, the liners are huge, the blade steel is tolerable if not amazing, and it is pretty cheap. i am confident in saying it is a pretty study knife. the only downside is that the clip is ugly as heck. that, however, can be replaced at a later date. it is in your price range, and i would say it is more than adequate for hacking around in the woods. be sure to handle everything before you buy it. if you hate it, you might never carry it.
 
Have you checked out the Cold Steel triad locking knives? Hands down the strongest production folding knives. I really like the American Lawman for edc and it would work well for camping too. And they're within your price range too.
 
Thanks for all the replys.I have sadly to say sog,ka-bar,buck and spyderco 's are only brands that i can find there.Cold steels's only high models are available and they are expensive.Endura is out of my bucket now:(I wrote these models cus these are the only ones that suits for my bucket and looks fine.Which one do you gonna choose ?Spyderco cara cara,buck bantam blw-bhw ,ka-bar dozer 4064 or sog flash 2 .
again thanks for all answers...

+1 for the izula, im sure a folder can handle you camping needs but it could malfunction if it gets dirty
