What Inexpensive (Cheap) knife do you really like?

I love alot of the already mentioned ones, Douk Douk, K-55 Victorinox, Mora, etc.

One I haven't seen mentioned yet is the old "CIA" Butterfly knives from Finland. Light, hand filling, sharp as hell, hold an edge, and you would probably be quite surprised what it takes to destroy one. (It's one of the few knives I've ever owned that's cheap enough for "destructive testing")

I'm shocked that the Tenacious didnt show up until 3 pages in! Also like the Vic. SAKs. I'm interested to see what the new Buck Bucklite MAX and Vantage series are like. All made in USA most under 30.
 
Schrade old timers.....gotta love them, great knives.
 
А lot of brands and models have been mentioned already. Mora/Frosts, Opinel, SAK of course but I could add the swedish Hultafors brand too. I`m absolutelly sure about that because of their very acurrate price/quality ratio .You get more than what you pay
 
Mora (pic your flavor) <$15
Vic Farmer <$25
Fiskers Hatchet <$25
Benchmade Vex <$35
Outdoor Edge Magna (Kit Carson M4 pattern folder) <Don't remember, but it was a good buy!
 
While I have a "premium" multi-tool in the kitchen drawer that I use often (Leatherman Wave), most all of my knives would be considered cheapo user knives. A basic Victorinox SAK is always a great bang-for-the-buck option. I also am quite impressed with the toughness and edge-holding ability of my little yella-handled Case sodbuster junior with CV steel.

A Victorinox Super Tinker I picked up for $14 on a closeout sale, and a knife I just ordered but yet to receive it, and I'm hoping it becomes a favorite inexpensive knife and that is the Kabar Bobcat, a Dozier designed folder.

Just a stock photo of my Gerber that I bought for $20 at a flea market. The little hilt at the blade serves to be a very good assisted opener than is much easier to use than the knobs. It's probably the best $20 I have ever spent.
