After 2 weeks tossing and turning in my sleep and asking millions of questions on here I have ORDERED my first of two knives.

Drumroll......... DRAGONFLY G10!

I don't own a dragonfly G10, but i think it's a good choice for an EDC knife. (if no larger blade is needed for your tasks)

Congrats on your decision. I have the G-10 Dragonfly and love it; Great little knife! I had the FRN DF, but didnl't like the feel of the FRN and no liners; so keeping it for my son.
I carry this knife all the time along with a slightly larger knife as well. You will be happy, Its a sweet knife!

So whats the next one?

That is a great starter. You cannot go wrong with the Dfly in G10. I love mine. Solid and the blade can do more than lots of people think. Next up is a 3" blade size, then 4" blade size, etc... :D

Yep, I recently got a stretch myself, but keep delaying the inevitable Dragonfly.
I'm kinda stuck between the vg10 and the H1 versions,though.

Thats an easy one for me; I do not like FRN, so would have to be G-10/vg-10
Also I do not do a lot of cutting around water. a G-10 version with H1 would be sweet too!
Good luck with your decision

I think it will be a Delica. The delica will become my everyday user most likely. The budget is $80 so I might be able to get a Sage CF from amazon. I love suggestions if you want to toss any in the mix :D

For me, I think the delica is a tad big for my likings, but that could soon change after i get all the smaller ones I want.

I love the sage and the Native 5. I got my sage1 for $86
I will have to do some homework to help with the sub $100 knives
Definitely Sage1 Very sweet knife
Para-military 2 is close to $100 range
Stretch FRN
Superleaf
Chapparal

I will report back with any others I can think of. The above listed are all great/popular models that can be found right at or below $100

When you say the "delica is a tad big", did you by chance mean to say "endura"? because IIRC, the delica is smaller and lighter (not to mention,more economical) than all those others on your list. :)
