If you like 5160, you should head over to the Himalayan Imports forum. Their products aren't made in the US, but you can definitely feel good about buying them, as your money is being put to good use.
For your purposes, I'd recommend the Pen Knife, or a 12" or 15" Ang Khola.
You are 100% correct. I do have many "made by hand" in Nepal 3/8" thick 5160 spring steel Kukri (from HK) and Swords (Himalayan Imports) from them. They are one of the best deals out there.
