Caly 3.5 no no wait don't buy the Caly 3.5 next the most perfect Spyderco ever made or you might not want to buy another Spyderco. Whatever you do don't buy the Caly 3.5 wait and buy it last.
Bradley Folder (previously called Gayle Bradley). You have some nice knives. I bet you would love a Bradley. The liners are thick making the knife feel like a tank. The CPM-M4 blade gets REAL sharp and holds an edge very well. Great knife. I don't think you can find a better knife for that money anywhere. :) Any of the Sages is also a good choice as someone else mentioned. The GB and Sage4 are two of my favorite knives. Making the decision is half the fun. Good deciding.

PS
For a small knife any of the Manbugs are a good choice. I would say D'fly but you already have one and between the two I think I'd choose a Manbug. That's just my thoughts.
I'd still vote sage 1 or sage 2. You have quite a few lockbacks why not try another lock ?

I personally love the Sage 2. CPM S30V steel 3" leaf shaped flat-ground blade, useful for many EDC/tool purposes. Titanium scales with Reeve's Integral-lock (frame-lock) eliminates the need for liners, so the profile is satisfyingly slim.. Gimping on both the ramp and curved choil give options for grip, good for choking up and applying pressure for more detailed work if desired. Plus, the smooth as silk opening provides such a satisfying snap upon lock-up. I flicked one open for the first time, and was sold. My only gripe is the wire-clip, which has juuust enough of a wobble to slightly scratch the beautiful titanium scales.
I would go Yojimbo 2, because it stands out from the rest much more than most of the recommended knives. I don't like to have too many knives that are very similar to each other. I'd also recommend a Military since you don't have one of those, and a ZDP Ladybug and/or Manbug.
