Input on a new edc knife

[thor0812]

Wife wants to buy me a new edc pocket knife. I'm looking assisted opening or at least single hand opening. I prefer non coated non serrated blades. I was looking at a kershaw blur, any opinions? Other good options in the sub 100 category?

Kershaw CQC-6K. On Amazon right now for about $21. Love mine, actually use it instead of worrying about dulling it or losing it.

Spyderco delica, wave opening if you can find it

Kershaw Cryo. It's part of their SpeedSafe line, so it's an assisted opening. They run about $25.

Blur is a bit big, i just got a Leek and it is perfect. Midsized lightning fast and razor sharp.

I carry an Emerson roadhouse with the wave blade and love it. Def my favorite pocket knife I've picked up. It's little pricey but kershaw makes one prob be a good option also. https://kershaw.kaiusaltd.com/knives/knife/cqc-7k

I have been carrying a CRKT Fossil. I have the smaller, non-serrated blade. Not assisted opening per say, but opens easily with index finger on built in knob for opening.

Just got a benchmade presidio, awesome knife but it's an auto.

Spyderco Delica and Endura. Ontario Rat 1 and 2. Benchmade Griptilian. Kershaw Leek. Just a few to look at.

Great list...Liked my leek except for the thin tip, if your going to use it just to cut its a good knife but tip can be broken if abused.
The onratio is a sleeper. Cheap money wise but a dang good knife. Best knife I have in that price range. I added one to my wish list due to great reviews and price, received one for Christmas 2 years ago. It's what I carry majority of the time and it's taken a beating and sharpens well. Opens smooth. It's not an assist but very quick one hand opening.
I also love Spyderco

I carry a Benchmade Mini Griptilian. It's not an auto opener, but open very smoothly and locks up tight. The blade is D2 tool steel and holds an awesome edge.
