bumping old thread with a question.

what's the best out the front knife for the money? preferably less than $200. been wanting another one for a while now, and the cheap one i used to have was pretty shitty. looking into Microtech ones, are they a good brand?

[Skypilot]

Microtech makes some of the best automatics around.
You can also have a look at the Benchmade infidel and the Protech dark angel which are both great knives as well .

Microtech makes one of the best otfs, only brand better would be a desert knife works.
They are out of your price range though, most/all good otfs are out of your range.
OTFs aren't my first choice when it comes to knives though.
They aren't really made for normal utility tasks, especially spear point ones.
Why is that you need an otf? If you really want an auto I would say go with
a Protech TR3.

i just want one cause they're sweet haha. no real purpose but to just have carry around knife. i want a dual action one too, the one i had before you had to slide/pull the blade back in every time and it sucked

[eazy_tom]

That works for me, I think they're badass I just wouldn't carry one.
Not that I could anyways california sucks..
Well if you can afford one then get a microtech, they're generally 300-400.
Unless you don't mind getting a fairly small one, then I would say get this

'Yalor' Japanese steel stabber

Machete in need of some serious TLC
(picked it up on vacation as a kid because I thought it was badass and it actually came it handy when camping as a teenager)

Seriously, one of the best purchases I have ever made. I never realized how useful it is to always have a good blade until now. I don't leave home without it.

Gave my Leek to my brother because he lost his, gave my Opinel to my buddy as a housewarming gift. Not sure what to get now. Thinking about another Opinel, this time in carbon steel. Sweet little knives, even if they can be a bit clunky for a daily carry. Opinions?

Carbon steel opinels are very nice, awesome little cutters.
Like you said though, too chunky in the pocket for me.
How about a spyderco delica?
