I like all knives, autos, assisted openers and fixed. Please share your opinions on small 4" or under fixed blades. Show me whatch'a got thanks
 
I you don't mind the extra half inch, I love the Benchmade Nimravus. Smaller, you have two great knives in the ESEE 3 and Ontario RC-3. So many others too. I'm a huge fan of small fixed blades.
 
Dozier K1, jigged bone handle. Cuts like a miniature chainsaw, anything from toothpicks to moose. Classic, elegant design, perfectly executed.
 
My GSO-4.1 from Survive!Knives is a tank of a knife! 5/32" thick M390 with blaze orange G10 handles (it's my hunting/camping knife). The are still available in 3V steel, I believe.

Another good one that I almost bought is the Benchmade 162 Bushcrafter. 4.25" s30v blade, micarta handles, and designed by Shane Siebert.

Definitely my Cold Steel Double Agent I. I never thought I would like karambits until I tried this one.
 
I can't pick a single favorite but some of my favorite (production only) fixed blades in the 4" and under group are:
Fallkniven F1 (plus H1 & WM1)
Spyderco Mule Team
Bark River Canadian Special 3V (plus Northstar EDC 3V & Bravo Necker 3V)
Swamp Rat Rodent Solution
Scrapyard 311
ESEE Izula II
 
Very easy choice. I have one Scott Gossman made me that I named the M.U.S.K. It is 3/16 thick A2 4 inch blade and 1 1/2 inch wide with a 4 1/2 inch cord wrapped handle. This knife can handle anything. I always have it when I go to the woods!!!!! Oh by the way MUSK stands for Mike's Ultimate survival Knife. Scott's work far exceeded my expectations and I pair my MUSK with my 8 inch Big Boar Tusker from Scott.
 
Here are a few of my favorites in the 4" range.

From the custom shoppe at Buck, my Alpha Hunter measures 3 3/4". Great little knife. Comfy in the hand, nice edge, nice ergos. Great knife.
