Hey all, this upcoming summer a ton of friends and family of mine are getting married. So, I'm looking for a small knife, possibly one I could drop into my pocket while wearing a tux/dress pants and no one would notice. Some knives I have in mind are: Sypderco Kiwi, Spyderco Ladybug, and a Boker Nano Plus (remove the clip). Any other ideas/recommendations?? Thanks!
 
A traditional slipjoint could suffice for your needs. A Case Swayback Jack is a really classy, affordable knife that is priced similarly to the other knives you've mentioned.
 
The AG Russell 3" lockback would work well. 3" closed 2.5" flatground VG10 blade. Comes in a few scale choices,the CF weighs less than one ounce. Also comes with a leather pocket sheath.

AG Russell makes a great, very slim little lockback (I'm a bit slow, but now pictured above) that comes with a leather case. William Henry EDC-6 (a bit more costly), a number of the small single or two blade Victorinoxs are great. Buck 503, kershaw Silver Spur ll, Gerber small LST, Fallkniven U4. Mike
 
Have a look at Mcusta. I dig my Yoroi... (even though it came with a sheath that looks like one of Mrs. Roper's moo moo's! :D)

Wow, that is slick. Where can you buy these? The two primary places I get my knives through don't carry the brand.
 
One of the wood scaled damascus Mcusta folding knives or perhaps a traditional slipjoint would be good options.
 
I would go with a traditional knife, GEC to be specific. And go with something like Ebony for the handle. Or Stag.
 
I second the Case Swayback Jack, in Chestnut Bone with CV blades, a classy knife for a classy event.
