Looking for a Shorter blade to carry.

Why does that phrase make my blood run cold?

I don't think so...
My teeth are original, and I have no problem with telling a real whopper!

Finch 1929
2.25" $125
Very snappy action

Spyderco Lil Native
ZT 0022

Both are on my list to take a look at personally. The ZT is my first choice. Incredibly small. It's just over the max stated price. But the quality of ZT is worth the extra money if you ask me.

A slightly bigger option would be the Hogue Microflip

I've got a Kershaw Launch 7 that might be close...

Kershaw Ember. (next to a Buck 112)

I adore the 1929. If you don't like the blade shape, Finch also makes the Runtly which has a 2.25" blade and a sheepscliffe-ish profile. I have both, and flipping action is better on the 1929 IMO.

Does it have to be a folder? Other than the Finch 1929, my only other small blade is a fixed one.

Different direction, Case Peanut.

Para 3 perhaps? Great platform. Just pick a steel that suits your needs. Not a flipper, but the one we have opens and closes like a dream. Happy hunting.

I have a bunch of knives in that size range as I prefer pocket knives. I prefer the Spyderco FRN Dragonfly and so does my wife.

Over the limit by a half inch

Not a flipper but deploys fast…..and around $70.00.

I, like others have said, recommend a Kershaw Scallion as it meets all of your criteria.

 

[rustyspike]

Kizer Contrail and the Dragon Fly 2. As said earlier in this thread. I have both. They are different style knives.

I like the MKM knives. I had never heard of them. Also the spyderco dragonfly I like.

 

[David Mary]

Can you really see and feel a .11" difference

Absolutely, that's almost 1/8"!

Another vote for the Dragonfly... but get one with K390 steel.

Definitely, though for steel I like stainless and high toughness.
