Folder recommendations

Alright I might be in the marked for a new folder. I am looking for any suggestions you might have. There are a few requirements.  :D


Plane Edge
Thumb hole (preferred)
$50-$75 range
movable pocket clip (preferred)


It will be carried in my right front pocket and the blade must rest on the inside of my pocket as to keep the blade form opening undauntedly. If this is the normal carry for the knife that is great. If not I must be able to move the pocket clip to accommodate for this. 

Alright any ideas.  :D

With  your budget you can get af ew to try. I am not sure if their clips move, but they do come out.

I should add some stuff. I have a Spyderco Tenacious and and have been drooling over the other knives in that line. I am also interested in a knife with high quality steel. S30v would be ideal.

Spyderco Native. I loved it when I had it. Excellent steel. Easy out. Perfect pocket size. The only reason I don't carry it anymore is I bought my dream knife. Sog tac mini auto. :D

Buck Vantage series also, the thumb hole kind of sucks, but the flipper action is nice. They carry tip-up, and they are releasing quite a few new models in the Vantage family with S30V in 2012.

They Do Have A Buck Vantage Pro In G-10 And s30v, And A Buck Vantage Force Pro In s30v.

But I Think Your Best Options With Good Blade Steel, A Nice Thumb Hole, And A Locking Folder Are:
Spyderco Native
Spyderco Delica
Spyderco Endura
Spyderco Manix 2
Benchmade Mini Griptilian 555
Benchmade Griptilian 550

Just got a Endura4 Flat Ground PlainEdge in Blue for $49.96.  :tu: I was going to get the brown but figured I would save $10 getting the blue which I don't mind. I also have $30 to spend on another knife if I find something in that price range I like.  :tu:
