Small folders

The Leopard Cub is thin and cuts like a devil. If you aren't going to pry with it, it will probably be strong enough for daily use activities.

I would suggest the Calypso, Jr. or a Boye Dendritic Steel or Cobalt folder. I don't have one of the latter, but I am thinking seriously about getting one.

And, of course, if you have the bucks, you won't find a better knife than a small sebenza...

Buji,

I would go with CD's suggestion and look into one of the David Boye knives. Those things will cut and cut and cut wihtout need for sharpening for a long time. An added benefit is that the cobalt blade version is totally corrosion resistant.
They are relatively small and lightweight, I do not think you would be disappointed. I've handled them but alas do not own one.
Either way good luck in your quest.

God bless!

The Native looks to me like a stout, good
looking utilitarian blade - much more so than
the standard Spydie fare (Delica, Endura,Mil).
I wonder why it's not so popular ? For bang
for buck and availability at a good price, CS

Actually, IMO, the Native blade is not as 'sturdy' as the Delica or Calypso, Jr. The tip of the Native is very thin,almost to the point of being scary. And it starts its thinness way back on the blade, maybe at the point where the swedge starts. But, it is a nice, sharp little blade, and the GIN-1 of mine holds an edge surprisingly well. Cut through a soda can the other night, and it would still shave hair off my arm.

I like the Native, but the tip of either the Delica or the Calypso, Jr. would be better if you're planning of 'abusing' the blade.
