Recommendation? Looking for a small flipper or easy to open knife for the 5th pocket of jeans

Thanks for the continued suggestions but like I posted earlier, I already have two knives on order. Incoming is a zome green dragonfly 2 and a CJRB Mica with carbon fiber scales.

If you keep suggesting stuff, I'll be compelled to spend more $$ but I still have to shop for my wife for Christmas.

Also ordered a CJRB mica with forged carbon fiber scales. So much for buying one knife to,finish out the year.

Hey, there are still sales prices out there. While the Ken Onion leek doesn't hold an edge like knives with "better" steel, it's a sleek handy little assisted flipper and a nice size for dress pants or even the inside breast pocket of a suit or sport coat.

I still think you'd love a Spyderco in a configuration right for you. I have a lot of trouble with my hands, but any of the Spydercos that have a prominent "Spydie-hole" open (and close) easily for me using one hand. I only need the other hand to clip it back in my pocket. Look at the PM2 and PM3 to see if some version suits your fancy, they come in a variety of good steels and scales. I'm getting so partial to my PM2 in Cruwear and canvas Micarta scales that I'm thinking about buying a backup in case I lose this one. I've only owned one knife in my 71 years that I liked more, a Kusan Oda tanto. He's quit making knives, now only Japanese swords, and mine burned up in a house fire. You can occasionally find used ones, but the cheapest I've found online was $1,200 ... and worth it if you have the money in your knife budget (I don't), but most of them on offer are around $2,000. Totally different knife for a different purpose, but that lets you know how much my messed-up hands and I love my PM2.
