Thanks for the input guys, I'm thinking a black lmf II from amazon for only $65 will be suffice.

Mine sits out but I prefer the Buck TOPS Fixed CSAR-T Knife . Both use 420HC steel and the Buck is 2 oz lighter with a better sheath IMO. The original LMF used 12C27 steel and the edge was better.
ive got one. honestly in terms of all of the knives ive had it feels the most balanced and nice to hold. no idea about longevity and toughness though. time will tell.
There's some good info in this thread. Don't know if you read through it already or not, or searched...

Also, +1 on the TOPS BOB comment above. Save up a bit longer...

buy four of them. I have YET to destroy one of these, and I've tried. Just run the one edge down a grinder, and you've got a good edge.
It's an inventive method of getting the same thing.
I love my lmf II
The overdone version of that.
