Well, no offense, it takes a mofo to know a mofo (mofo!). The thread is entitled what blade do you carry. That's what I carry when I do my job which is forest rangery so piss off.
I'll admit to being a mofo (a badass one at that). I was referring to the fact that the OP asked about a "new pocket knife". KA-BAR makes beautiful knives. I've got their Bowie which I use for camp and for yard work. It could come with a better sheath but at less than $50, I'm not complaining.

Getting back on topic, I recently bought my GF a Kershaw Ken Onion Blur that I saw at Amazon.com for $30 (that price has since jumped to $50). It's got a 3.375 inch blade, weighs in at 4.2 oz, has good stippling, it's assisted open, and you can reverse the pocket clip. She keeps it in her purse as opposed to on her person, but she says it's great for her purposes.

If you haven't noticed, I tend to purchase most of my knives through Amazon because they seem to have the lowest prices, generally has free shipping, and their selection isn't bad.
