Hey guys, My wife has decided she'd like to get the men in our family a pocket knife for Christmas this year, and I need to start buying now so I can get everyone bought for.

Most of the men in our family are easy to buy for, I know exactly what to get them.....where I'm having trouble is my Father in Law....

He's 68 now? ish.... but still quite active, gets around good but is starting to have some health issues. I want to keep his gift more traditional looking... and on the smaller lighter side of things. However I'd like if it had a pocket clip. fairly easy to open and close...

something like a buck 110 with a pocket clip, that was half sized.... or some kind of mid size stockman, with a clip? or ......I dunno, anything more traditional looking with a clip.

he's not an operator .....hes an old man that grew up with a barlow or a case pen knife his whole life, and he keeps his little 2 bladed folder in his right front pocket with his change....and has to dig thru a pocket full of stuff every time he needs his knife....

he wont carry anything too big or bulky.... or anything too modern looking....

I'm at a total loss myself..... help?

would like to stay under 100.00 if I could, but its not a deal breaker...

oh hey.... that's nice! that could fit the bill quite well! should be easy enough for old authritic hands to open.... LOOKS like it has a liner lock so pretty easy to close....

Thanks man... i'll do some digging around on that one.

Search for Case models. They seem to look traditional, small and have pocket clips. I saw at least another case model that had a clip.
 
Maybe a Benchmade Mini Crooked Eiver with wood scales, or a Cold Steel Lucky or Lucky One might fit the bill. Here are pictures of each in that order.
