Please, help to choose

Please, help to choose. I am looking for couple of knives, one EDC, and one for dress up occasions.
For EDC I am thinking about Spyderco Adventura or BM 707 or BM 732. I prefer plain edge and non-coated blades. I have one concern about BM 732, it has coating, and I am afraid that in a few days or weeks it will be scratches on the coating, which will look ugly. I would like knife to perform and look good as well.
For dress up occasions BM 690 Carbon Fiber or Spyderco Kopa, Cocobolo or BM440.
I like them all, just not enough money. I saw all of these knives only on Internet.
I will appreciate your opinion
Thank
Roman

For dress, the Syderco Kopa might be nice. I've been eyeing them for awhile now. The blade should be an excellent slicers. I like the various choices in handle materials. Also look into the Kershaw Nakamura for a gent knife.

I agree totally with Wade as these are two of my favorite "Dress Up Gent's Knives". I believe that www.gpknives.com has just dropped the price on the KOPA and I have had excellent service from them in the past. Another similar, yet larger dress knife, though not readily available, is Spyderco's Mini-Persian. I was lucky to find one at www.newgraham.com that one of the "collectors" did not want.
