Guys,
Looking for your recommendations on an EDC Spring-assisted Knife. Here are my criteria based on 5+ years of carrying an EDC knife (I'm a hiker, camper, fisherman, handyman-not law enforcement, military, firefighter, or knife fighter)

Looking for your recommendations on an EDC Spring-assisted Knife. Here are my criteria based on 5+ years of carrying an EDC knife (I'm a hiker, camper, fisherman, handyman-not law enforcement, military, firefighter, or knife fighter)
- Drop point blade, smooth edge (have no need for a tanto shape or serrated edge)
- Blade length of 3" + (ideally around 3-3.5 inches)
- Uncoated blade (I hand sharpen my knives)
- Sturdy pocket clip (lost my long-term favorite knife because the clip got loose over time)
- (Optional) variety of handle colors (have started buying my hiking/outdoor equipment in colors other than black or olive drab-much easier to find a piece of gear you accidentally dropped if it's in a bright color)
- Price-under $100 (not looking for a "collector's item"-even the most careful of us will loose a knife in the woods, parking lot, etc.)
