You can find a 710 for way cheaper than $150, more around the $100 line
 
A 5 inch blade is HUGE on a folding knife. Also, depending on wgere you live a blade that large may be illegal to carry. Ramp it down to 4in and your options become much more varied. If I were you I would check out the benchmade 710. It is a roughly 4 inch blade and carries very slim in the pocket. The spyderco military would also be a great choice. Honestly, in general if you need more than a 3.5-4 inch blade you should probably start looking at fixed blades.

+1...I agree. I five inch blade in a folder is probably going to run you into legal issues since many jurisdictions limit the blade length in some form or other. I recommend you double check your state and local laws before getting a knife that size.
 
Okay thank you. I live in Ontario. I like the benchmade 710, now I'm just browsing for the cheapest one.
