Any recommendations appreciated. I'm looking for something in the $200-$300 price range. I like S35-VN or comparable steel or TI. handle TI, Carbon Fiber, or G-10 or a mix of any of these. I'm also looking for partially serrated. I've been looking at a lot of Microtechs - whaleshark mainly and socom delta. I also like double action OTFs , I know not the best edc but hey I like em I think I should add one to my collection. I like the microtech ultratech with the bowie blade style with serrations. Anyone know of anyone that is selling or trading any of these greatly appreciated I do have a Warren Thomas SLCC in orange with and orange sheath brand new 1 of 3 made in that color with a Tec-Loc I'd be willing to trade. Please post pics or your recommendations along with maker and type. Thanks guys for any info you put out. Also I've heard a lot of mixed reviews about microtech let me know what you guys think of them.

I was going to say to buy a Spyderco Sage 2 and a Sage 1, then put the carbon fiber non locking side on the side of the titanium and then you'll have a CF/Ti frame lock Sage.
Then you can sell the TI/CF Liner Lock off for around $100 or so and it turns out you just paid $150 - $160 for a sweet knife.
If you want it to be more expensive you can't go wrong with any higher end Spyderco, ZT, Chris Reeve, etc.

spyderco sage 1 is incredible! Im not a fan of frame locks (i have not tried a very high end one yet though) due to ergonomics of the handle dipping in, and also I found (on cheaper ones) that when squeezing tight on the knife it would push the frame lock in and lodge it slightly. I have used a sage one a lot, daily for over a year, and used and abused it, the lock was never an issue
