For years, my EDC was a Buck Redpoint Rescue 850, Which I lost recently, and replacements are no longer available.
I never trusted the blade on that knife anyhow (it seemed a bit light and breakable, so my search led me to a Kershaw Barricade rescue knife which checks all the boxes except one; I need a partially serrated blade. Kershaw doesn't seem to make one. I'm almost ready to have serrations made on mine by a bladesmith. Has anyone seen this knife available with a combo blade?
 
Ruike M195 might fit your need.

I don't usually recommend Chinese brand, but there aren't many option like the other knife.
 
The Benchmade 915 Triage is a really nice knife. I keep a 916 Triage with its oposing bevels and straight tip for prying with my tourniquet in my work truck.

I found it at Cabela's/Bass Pro. Now the problem is anxiety over possibly losing a knife I paid $345 for. I attached a chain and belt loop from an old wallet. It gives me reasonable freedom with the 14" chain, but it is also quick-detachable with a clasp.
 
I'm fairly happy with my Benchmade Triage 917 for EDC, but I keep it on a wallet-chain, just because it's so expensive to replace. I bought a Gerber Hinderer last night, because it seems like an equivalent knife, using the same steel, for about 1/3 the price. The problem with it however, is that the attachment point for the chain is at the wrong end of the knife, at least regarding the position of the pocket clip. I see no reasonable way to mount the clip the other way around.
