Ive been a fan of Zero Tolerance knives for a while.

I just got this last week to replace my lost CQC-7

Its a beast!!! And in your price range.

ZT 0620CF

In a locked container should satisfy the direct control question. It's good enough for handguns.

only to carry, not to possess.

just going along with the OPs plan of gifting, i didn't think he'd hand out something that couldn't be carried.

If your friend doesn't mind doing some sharpening every once in a while, a Sebenza is always nice. They're built like Swiss watches, but are a bit outside your upper range, generally. Spyderco Sage 2 has titanium handles, is fairly innocuous and is well made. Benchmade ti monolocks are beautiful and well made. Hope these choices help a little bit. The Spyderco and the monolocks are both available with free shipping from Amazon.

have 20 plus year aluminum handle Spyderco police. Tough edc tool

Is Spyderco too low end for this?

I second that and look at cold steel too

I should have been more specific. Those are fabulous and are a GO!

For the record, my EDC pocket knife is a Kershaw Ken Onion Leek in all black. I like the assisted opening method it uses. Good steel too. Paid less than $100 for it.

Check out A. G. Russell for options... Lots of choices under one 'roof'...

No, I am not looking for a blade to address my big gulp issue from another thread.

I am trying to find a very nice knife in the $200 to $300 range to reward someone who has worked on a project and would appreciate such an item.

Suggestions welcome.

YUNA knives (looooong wait)
Jim Bensinger Custom Bladesmith (in VT i think. guy makes super solid simple hand crafted stuff)
Spyderco (manix 2 is great)
Benchmade (bedlam is my edc)

 

[5 DOLLAR FOOT LONG]

I would get him something from zero tolerance.

Love my paramiltary 2 from spyderco. Those are only $100. Could always get a nice buck 110 from their custom shop with engraving for a personal touch. Life time coverage on Bucks.
