Josh, If you like Spyderco knives check out their "Affordable folder" line. Made of 8Cr13MoV steel, but really good serviceable knives. One is the persistence at 2.7 inches, and another one, really neat to "Play with" is the CAT. 2.44 inch blade. The ambitious at 2.24 inchs, The Chicago at 2.1 inches (wouldn't Barry Be proud). The CAT is a little more pricy, but still under 100 bucks and it is made with BD1 Steel.
