I've been on the hunt for a smaller side folder or spring assist Tanto, but am really struggling to find what I'm looking for. My absolute favorite grip texture, wet or dry, is the heavily stippled G10 grips that came on the little Gordon knives that Harbor Freight was selling:
In my hunt for a Tanto though, nobody seems to mirror this grip texture, or if they do, its in an aluminum handle. If anyone could help find a knife that fits the following criteria, it'd be greatly appreciated!
- $100ish or less (I lose things too easily to justify a Benchmade, etc.)
- Smaller Tanto blade (small enough for EDC clipped on a pocket, I don't like carrying knives the size of an iPhone)
- Side folder or spring assist (or at least something legal for carry in NC)
- Heavily textured G10 or similar grips
