makes me wish fixed knives weren't illegal in a few of the cities i hike in :( so clean simple and functional.

any good lightweight folder suggestions? i've just been using a $8 chinese benchmade knockoff. it's actually surprisingly nice but kinda heavy for these purposes because they don't make good knockoffs with the g10 handles.

Thanks for the replies. Never really considered a budget, I usually like to have a good knife for serious backpacking & a poo poo sub$20 knife for daily beater/loving around in the woods duties.

I'm not a fan of folders either, and I've been having a real hard time finding anything light weight. Right now my go-to is the benchmade mini griptillian. Can't risk owning a fixed knife, I already almost got hosed pretty badly by arcane vaguely written local knife laws nobody has ever heard about. Lockless folders are also illegal in a couple different cities near me. 3" measured is the max blade length, rules out a bunch of stuff for being like 3.1"
