I've got about $200 burning a hole in my pocket and I'm looking for some suggestions from all the informative users here!

I have a pile of Ken Onion knives (SpecBump, Chive, Leek, etc...), Benchmade Appartition, and a pile of random folders from CRKT and the like. I've always been fascinated by automatic and assisted opening knives, so something that style would be awesome.

I'm looking for any suggestions you all have! Right now I'm thinking of the Emerson Karambit Folder or the Commander Folder, both waved.
 
For that kind of money I would look at a Benchmade Skirmish or Rukus, both of which can be had for less than $200.00

For $200.00 or less you can also find a Benchmade 806D2 AFCK floating around, well worth the cash.
 
I personally like Puma's, The Earl, Duke, Prince, Bowie, Skinner, WhiteHunter are between $60 and $200. You may be able to get more than just one good knife for that money. Just my 2 cents.
 
The Chicken Bisquit!(AKA Bradley Alias) That's gonna be the 1st 200-doller-ish knife I get. :D

Thank you all for the suggestions so far! ;) I never really looked into the Rukus/Skirmish, both of which are very much my style.

:EDIT:
The Alias knives are dead sexy! Very nice!
 
Onotadaki, maybe save your money for the Kershaw G10 Offset coming out soon, or even better, the ZDP Cyclone, which will be out next year!

Waved Emerson, gotta have at least one!

Matador-
 
For that money you should check out Combat Elite. A brand not talked about enough.

If you like the assisted openers, you have to try SOG which makes nice assisted knives, but wouldn't cost you nearly that much.

Heck, for that money, just get an auto.

For that amount, you might be able to score a used small Sebenza on the exchange forums. It's not an automatic or AO, but the quality can't beat.
 
Spyderco CF BG42 Military ($156) gets my vote. Another pic

There is also Buck Mayo TNT (almost $200)
Benchmade Rukus/Skirmish ($160)
Some of William Henry can be had for around $230

As for automatics:
Microtech LUDT
Protech TR3
Protech Godson/Godfather
