I have $70 worth of KnifeRewards from KnifeCenter. What should I buy?

I make a rule for myself that I can only own a few knives at a time to prevent letting the demon out. Currently I have an Ed Cope LR.6 full custom, and a Kershaw Launch 4. Both have Damascus blades and grey scales.

The minimum I'd want to spend on something would be 70, since I just want to use up all the knife rewards and be done with it. The max I'd be willing to pay is 95, since that's how much you need to spend to unlock free shipping.

I think I'd like something with a shiny, satin finish blade and possibly some carbon fiber somewhere in the construction. Not craving another auto, but I don't currently have a flipper so that might be kind of cool. I've always been interested in Spydies to a certain degree. I prefer ball bearings to assisted.

Anything come to mind in that price point? Any good deals out there on KC?
 
Between $70 and $95, there isn't so much that you can't look through their stock in a few minutes. It might be easier to do that and pick out something you think looks nice than asking folks. Just a thought.
 
Manix 2
Polestar
Chapparal
Endura
Delica
Most of the Spydies in that range are lock backs, except the Manix 2 and Polestar
 
When I had some store credit to burn recently @b00n suggested the Steel Will mini-Cutjack and I took that advice. Pretty soon I also had a Modus and Intrigue as well. Darn good flipping action on these considering the price point.
Great, fun to carry knives. You could get a couple! :thumbsup:
 
Delica, Endura, a Para something or another (just a few more dollars). Benchmade mini Griptillian is about $95.

I don’t have personal experience with it but the knife has an awesome reputation as a great flipper and very unique and strong lock.

I’ve been eyeing them.
 
Could do what I'm doing and try out a Spyderco with their serrations, though with your budget you can get their knives in H1 which seems to be worked hardened to 60+ rc on the serrations but lower RC away from the serrations. Supposed to be the best material they have for holding a edge with serrations. Than use whatever other money leftover if any for sharpening equipment. They have a lansky dog bone sharpener designed to sharpen their serrations.

I'm not so patiently waiting for Friday for my Byrd Hawkbill to come in with a DMT survival sharp so I can use the small diamond rods to keep it sharp. So yeah that's where my excitement is from, so take the recommendation as you will.

I'm not a fan of super small knives but I believe a H1 Ladybug Hawkbill or any H1 serrated Ladybug would probably be a keeper and find a permanent place on your keychain.

A Victorinox Swiss Army Manager Pocket Knife, would also be a pretty good keychain knife. As well as a small Leatherman.

I have one. Used it today as a matter of fact. It is an amazing knife for the money.

Exactly.
When I get enough rewards saved up I find the knife that was always just out of my comfort range price-wise and jump on it.
You only live once man, extend your reach.
