So after losing my spyderco, I've been looking into a lot of different folders, and really like the flippers in particular. I like the zt0350, but this will be edc and I think it's just a but too big for my dress pants. I had a crkt m16 in Iraq and loved it. I like the style of the shenanigan, which is what I'm mostly leaning towards. Any others I should consider while looking? My budget is 150 but would be happy keeping it under 100. No serrated blades, will mostly be used for opening packages and potentially as a steak knife when all I have is plastic silverware haha. Thanks!
 
I'm a fan of the Skyline. It's thin and lightweight, which makes it an excellent EDC. The blade is a little over 3". There are many available varieties available, from basic Sandvik/G-10 to S30V/CF, all within your budget. The one addition I would make is a deep carry pocket clip.

I do really like the skyline, I was just hoping to find different scales for it, but have been unable to
 
Nice choice. The Skyline is a great EDC knife, and the Damascus looks pretty cool (and works well too). I ended up doing a scale swap with my red Skyline for mine.

Kershaw Skyline in Damascus is pretty.

I have several in different colors and occassionally swap the scales around. The Dam blade with Orange scales is very purty.
