I really like my Link and it's blade style so I was looking at the ZT 0095 but again no GB/"skull crusher". It has that blade style I like though ;)
So, let's hear some suggestions.
Thanks!
 
how important is this feature is to you ?

Is it important enough to have one made to attach to an existing knife you love ?
 
I just got a Benchmade Contego 810. It has a very small carbide glass breaker (not a 'skull crusher' but a purpose made glass breaker). It's a big knife, but pockets very well and is unobtrusive. The breaker is not overly large and pointy, so it's not jabbing you all the time. The M4 steel on this thing is an excellent steel. All in all a great knife.
 
Not a flipper, but the axis lock deploys fast, but take a look a the Benchmade Triage.
 
Maserin Police. Great knife that never got a whole lot of attention. On bearings and falls shut with it's heavier blade.
 
Tweak it and oil it good enough, and a Benchmade Contego will do the trick, although not a flipper per se.
 
Hinderer has the HMBS system and has started producing glass breakers to fit on them. We have not gotten any but there are some out there. There will be more of them available in the future. Might be a fit if you are willing to spend the money.
 
I have the Lionsteel SR-11 in Ti. It's a flipper with said glass breaker. I like this knife, alot. Rodes great in the pocket. Smooth IKBS. Not sure about the Rotolok, so I never use it. Just a suggestion. Good luck...
 
If you're worried about breaking glass I strongly recommend an automatic center punch rather than the glass breaker on a knife. They're pretty inexpensive, work well and are only about the size of a pen.

The Kershaw Funxion EMT is an Assisted Flipper with a glass breaker that can be found for around $30. I've given a couple of these as gifts and they perform OK for what they cost.
