What is your favorite flipper that cost under 100 dollars?

1. Kershaw Skyline damascus
Slim, simple, functional, size efficient.

2. SOG Twitch II
Complex, smooth, technical feel. Requires very little force to deploy - almost a swithblade.

Made in the USA, lifetime warranty, 154cm steel, aluminum handles, unbelievable attention to detail, this is the knife you want!
 
I'm a big fan of the Kershaw Strobe. Steel is decent for its price point of approximately $40.00 (8Cr13MoV), but the flipping action (KVT system) is exceptional.
Another, and completely different favorite is the CRKT Swindle. It's roughly $35 and has 8Cr14MoV and IKBS bearings. Nice little flipper with an interesting shape.
 
CRKT Swindle Grooved. The pocket clip takes a little time to get used to but It's a great flipper right out of the box.


 
The SOG Twitch II was my first "real" knife and the one that started this whole crazy obsession. It's a great little knife that goes almost unnoticed in the pocket. Deployment is super fast and it fits really nice in hand.
 
CRKT is about to release the GSD. Good looking design and is currently priced at 100$ if I remember correctly. I plan on getting this flipper as soon as possible. Design by liong mah.
 
Can I pick like 4 of them? Yeah? Ok cool.

Kershaw Skyline: My very first knife, still commonly carried by me even now, it can compete with any of my high end folders any day. The tip's whacked off and it's all sorts of scratched up, but it still slices better than almost anything else I have, save my new ZT 0770CF which seems to hold it's own pretty well against it. I plan on retiring this one soon once I can get my hands on the carbon fiber version.

Kershaw Thermite: Bought it when I was on my Hinderer kick, along with my 0560. It's a great speed-assist knife with a great blade shape and excellent ergonomics. That and it came out near my birthday, which makes it a little extra special.

Kershaw Leek: Noticing a trend, here? I just recently got the Leek with the D2/Sandvik composite blade, in blackwash, and this thing never leaves my pocket, even if it means I'm carrying three knives. It's comfortable to use, comfortable to carry, and it's needle-like tip is unlike anything else I own.

CRKT Ripple: Ah, a non-Kershaw. A small, fast mother of a flipper. The detent on mine is extremely powerful, and as such this little bugger flies out of it's handle readily. I polished the blade and the silver lines on the handle on mine, and it looks classy as hell. I typically carry this when I'm at meetings and need to look sharp.
 
I love my Kershaw blur in s30v. Although you can afford the Elmax version in that price point. When I first got it, I didn't think it would hold up because it's so light! But thus thing is great. Although I HIGHLY recommend deassisting it
 
I love "Flippers" and very happy w/my Kershaws.

I was really surprised at how much i like my "Shallot", and also enjoy carrying the "Clash" and even the "Piston" has found a way into my heart after some custom work on the handle.

Sometimes i like a BIG A$$ knife and like my new CRKT Foresight as well.
