I recently got a warehouse job and figure this style of knife will be perfect for work (I'll also carry my plain edge EDC). I need it to be fairly small and light because I'm going to be keeping it in my back pocket. The smallest I'll go is the Spyderco Ladybug 3 Hawkbill Salt and the largest I'll go is the Spyderco Tasman Salt. My budget is around $60, preferably less.
 
you could also consider the spyderco civilian. although that might be a little bit big and the tip looks like it would be easy to break
 
A cheaper option is the Byrd Meadowlark Hawkbill. It's made by Spyderco.
 
I just sold mine two weeks ago... and now regret it.
Was mint.
You can get one on Dweebay for $48.00 new free shipping no tax.

Given your budget and requirements, those are the only options. There really aren't a lot of hawkbill folders to choose from to begin with, add full serrations and you have Spyderco/Byrd.
 
I would not get the ladybug if it's going to see frequent use. The handle is just too small. I have both the ladybug hawkbill and the tasman. You will not be disappointed with the tasman.
 
5.11 sells the LMC which comes with orange FRN handles and a blunt tipped fully serrated hawkbill blade with a glass breaker and oxygen wrench. That being said, I still think the Tasman Salt is your best bet.
 
Check out a Harpy or Merlin, if you want lightweight get the Merlin (pretty much just a lightweight Harpy). They are small and have nice hawkbill serrated blades.
 
As others have said, with those requirements, and that price point, just get the Tasman Salt.
