For a folder carried for self defense only, and therefore unlikely ever to be used, I assume steel quality is not really an issue. Easy deployment of the blade would be more important.
Presumably something like Aus8 or 420HC would be more than adequate.
In which case which modestly priced 3.5" to 4" folder woulld you recommend.
Here in England prices are high.
I could get a CRKT M21 or a Boket Automat Kalashnikov for about the same price.
In case the latter is not widely known in the States, here is a link from a British website.

And this is the CRKT I was thinking of:

Does anyone know of a better alternative?
And are my assumptions correct?
