Buck 110 from Copper and Clad. They have a couple SFO's with a drop point blade, using different steels and covers.
Buck 110 from the Buck Custom Shop.
Options include:
S30V drop point blade.
Brass or Nickel Silver bolsters, with or without pins.
Finger grooves are optional.
Choice of covers, including woods, Buffalo Horn, Elk, Bone, and G10
Optional engraving on the blade and/or bolsters.
Choice of Nylon or Leather belt sheath. The leather sheath is strictly vertical. The nylon sheath can be used vertically or horizontally. (the leather sheath costs an extra $10. The nylon sheath is included at no cost)
You can add a thumb stud or thumb bar.
Some have drilled and tapped one of the rear bolsters for a pocket clip. (I prefer belt carry, you don't notice the weight)
Buck also makes several one hand openers with non-metallic handles, that include a pocket clip. I don't have one, since I do not need one hand opening, and I loathe pocket clips. Most have a drop point blade.
I believe SK Blades has some Buck one hand openers with upgraded steel drop point blades.
Note that even if you go with Buck's standard 420HC blades, they have what many consider to be the best heat treat, and hold an edge far better than anyone else's 420HC. Some even compare it to a a good 440C blade.
Buck also has the best warranty. If it ever needs warranty work (even if the knife has been passed on to your Great Great Grandkid) send it in to Buck and they will fix it or replace it at no charge.
If you or your heirs want it cleaned up and made to look like new, Buck has a SPA Treatment, that currently costs less than $10. per knife you send in. If the blade "has been sharpened to a toothpick" or suffered a damage not covered by warranty, a new blade is around $7.
