Spectre,
I may have missed it if you said why you wouldn't be interested in the Paramilitary, but I think that's the knife you'd want. Its the same size as a native, S30V that is flat ground and sharp as hell, dual liners with a compression lock and that great G10 handle. Trust me dude, give it a try. It's one of the best that Spyderco has to offer. Personally, I do like the regular Militay better, but only because it seems thinner and the opening action has a more commanding snap to it.
You said you're not into the "litte-big knife" thing, but the Dodo is another awesome knife to consider. It's my favorite utility knife; screw box cutters! I've never tried a Yojimbo, I didn't want it to replace my Dodo even though I'm sure that blade may be more useful. I just ordered a Spyker. Not sure if I'm going to like it, but I have to try out all the new Spydercos. It's worse than any chemical addiction. The Manix is next in my line up. I liked the Chinook II, but never enough to buy it, and the Manix made up for everything that bothered me about the Chinook II. Then I may want to get that "new and improved" ATR titanium. I had one of the originals and I miss it.
Anyway, seriously, try a Paramilitary. It may be just what you're looking for.
