Need suggestions for a new pocket knife

AC_23 · Jul 5, 2004

I'm looking for something with a 2.5 to 2.75in blade lenght, light weight, pocket clip, plain edge. I'm a regular user of the pocket clip, but i'd like something that wouldn't seem to heavy in the pocket.I'm a big spyderco fan, but I can't find anything that fits these specs that I do not already have. I'm really interested in the CRKT Urban Shark, but have been unable to find one. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Clay

The limited edition of the Spyderco Calypso Jr. Lightweight would fit (as long as you are not looking for a heavy duty knife). This is like a folding scalpel. You can find them for under $50.00 on the internet.

for around $75 you could get a kershaw splinter w/quince wood handles - less if you go with aluminum. the urban shark is a nice design but I find CRKT's AUS 6 blade steel gets dull really quickly. Or what about the new CRKT Elishewitz E-Lock?

If you like the plastic handled Spydies, you may want to check out the Ka-Bar/Dozier Folders . At 3", the blades are a hair longer than you mentioned, but the knives are great beaters. And at $20.00, you can pick up a couple of them. There is also a Thumb Notch version available.

I've had very good luck with my Kershaw Sapphire. AUS-8 semi-leaf shaped blade is a real cutter. Can be had for $49. Might be a touch long for you, though.
