As the title states, I'm looking for one of these.
I'd prefer a 3"blade, but no more than 3.125"
Max price around $200 give or take. (I don't mind purchasing pre-owned)
I prefer simply styled knives with classic lines that look like they're made to work.
Recommend away!
Thanks
 
Guess I should have specified, I'm looking for a folder, locking, one hand opener
knife.
Thanks

Yup.

The Yojimbo is a larger, chunkier knife, but also great in its own way.

I also should have specified "no back locks".
Yeah, I'm a particular little twit! 🤣
And no offense to anybody who likes em, but that Yojimbo/Yojumbo has a face only a mother could love.
 
I second D Drop bear . The QSP Penguin is an extremely well made knife for the money.

With basic d2 micarta versions starting at $32 with a liner lock, all the way to M390 and titanium framelock versions for $125.

Currently I just have 1, (the brass version), but have had 4 over the years. Two d2's, a 154cm, and an m390. They were all great.

Depending on what your price is...

I would get a, uhhhh, uhhhhh... don't they have Endela in a K390 Wharncliffe? Get you a K390 Wharncliffe from Spyderco, any kind, you'll be happy.
Yojimbo2, I like the 20CV one! It's all cutting edge on those things, no space wasted.

Also, everybody hear me out on this one... on 5x5 Solutions, I know these are marketed as something super-tactical, but the way I've been using my Yurco-Janich-profile Endura has been mainly for food and such, it's thinned out and such an excellent slicer, great way to try his profile without having to buy a Yojimbo or Yojumbo. They also sell a mini-Yojumbo, shortened my Mike. He ALSO does re-grinds of Delica, Endela, Endura, calls em Jandura and such, on the same site.

Wharncliffes are cool.
 
Checks all the boxes I think...

N690 steel for $59ish too.

Not sure if this is really straight across wharncliffe blade. Not sure how you feel about the lock. One hand opening closing tho.

Would you consider a Sheepfoot blade style? That gives you a few more options.
