Small Manual Flippers with 2.25-3.25 inch Blades

If I had to choose just one it would be the Todd Begg Steelcraft Mini Bodega which I've carried far more than any other folder this year. My user is the Gray one with blue anodized hardware in the pictures below. I just wish that for the $445 price it would have M390 instead of S35VN.

I like this little benchmade quite a bit. It's nearly an auto with it's assist and small flipper that sends the blade flying. Plus, the lock works, both ways on the axis, open and closed.

Nice Benchmade Amicus Flipper AXIS-Assist with 3.2" blade of S90V.

I purposely avoided assisted opening flippers in this thread and instead concentrated on manual flippers.

If I wanted to include them it'll be my various Zero Tolerance 0770, 0566 and 0350 with SpeedSafe Assisted Opening.
 
I like the Brous Bionic 2.0, but wish the detent was a tad stronger. I really like the Mini Bodega - very smooth and a great carry size. The ZT 0808 is hard to beat too.

On a side note: I was just telling my wife about RamZar today. It just amazes me to see the knives that are in that collection. The funny thing is that we seem to have very similar taste in knives. The difference is that he actually owns them all! :):thumbup: I try to keep my envy under control.
 
The Ferrum Forge N-Tac and Stinger were both mentioned earlier in this thread, I'll add the Septer: 3 inch, 20cv blade with excellent action. Also, the Custom Knife Factory Peace Duke is 3 inches, with M390 and very good action and ergonomics although it took me a while to get past its appearance.

I couldn't get past the looks of CKF PeaceDuke. CKF has promised more 3" blade flippers this year. Great quality, M390 and around $300.

Ferrum Forge Stinger has a 3.3" blade but N-TAC, Septer and Veloz fall into this category of under 3.25" blade.

jill, which model is this?

I have been searching for a smaller Benchmade. Might this be it?

(Nice background in the picture!)
 
I have that one arriving Tuesday. I like that blade shape, so I'm hoping it will be a keeper.

Nice. I assume you ordered the flipper model since there's a thumb stud model as well? With or without handle holes?

I went with flipper and no holes. I'm hoping for a handle that feels something like a Gemini, but with the funky sheepsfoot blade. I suppose I'll find out soon. :)
