Fixed or folding. I thought this would be cool to see how cheaper knives compare to more expensive ones. One of the best knives I've used was a RAT folder 3" and I put that thing through hell. What about you?
 
Schrade 175- $5
Kershaw Cryo- $20
Case Sodbuster- $20
Kershaw Skyline (red)- $50
 
CRKT Drifter. $15 frame lock version. Still have one in my maxpedition pocket organizer.
 
Case Sodbuster JR. $15 that handles a lot of hard use and could be sharpened on a marshmallow.
It did, and does, get a lot of carry.
 
Just picked up a couple of Case SS Sodbuster Jrs for $10 a piece. So that would be my #1 Best/Least $$ knife.
 
Cold Steel Pendleton Light

I don't think there's a better hunting knife for the $.

I've owned a Sanrenmu 763, it's made in China out of what I believe to be AUS8. Takes a hair popping edge and is small, excellent if you're looking for an EDC utility knife and it's under $20!
 
CRKT Ripple. The one from Walmart. (K415KXP) .... about $35.00

Awesome flipper with bearings, great ergos, Ken Onion design, rounded spine, an awesome detent, decent jimping, full through pillar design, and it looks unique.

The best part is the detent. It sucks the blade black even when you close it with quite force, and wont have any bounce back. Sucks in very nicely.
