Would like a nice $50-$75 butterfly knife.

All I can find is super cheap $5 "bargains" or the Benchmades, which is what I would prefer, but since this is just for fun, I would like to prevent from spending that much. Any ideas and web sites? Thanks.

You're probably going to have to look for a used one or roll your own from a kit from knifekits.com

It would be nice to get one with the carbon fiber inlays, have you done this before? What tools/files are needed?

George,

According to Sal Glesser of Spyderco, the Spyderfly started shipping 05/14/04. Bali fans who have gotten a'hold of them really seem to be taking to them.

I just placed my order for the SpyderFly, heck, I still don't have a Spyderco knife so...

Looks like I am putting off the knife kit for a little while longer.
