I've notice that if I have an expensive or semi-expensive knife I tend to lose it quicker than I do some cheap little thing.
I've got a CRKT Edgie. It is not a lock blade. It is not worth bothering to open it one handed. It has a "chisel" edge so you are making a long cut you have to watch its tendency to curve the cut. It has a plastic scales. The blade is 2 3/4 inches long. It is sorta a sheep's foot blade with one long straight edge. Online it is down to about $5.
However it is always sharp. There is a 600 grit sharpener built in that hones one edge every time you open or close it. This puts a wire edge on the blade that turns it into a micro-saw blade. If you draw the edge across something it will cut it. I can take down a cardboard box for the trash quicker than I can with a box cutter. Rubber and plastic the same.

Re: Knifes you can't lose.
I have every model of CRKT made except for two styles that I'll never own by any maker--First is the gut hook knife and the second is the folder with the notch cut out of the blade like a Spyderco which is what the Edgie has...
Iron City is sold out of them
Knife Outlook has them for $20.00...
Knife Center has them for $19.00...
Knives USA for $19.50...
***Knife Works has them for $12.00...
Knives Town also for $20.00...
Blade Crazy as well for $20.00
One Stop Knife Shop has them for $22.00...
Knife Depot for $25.00...
There are lots of CRKT knives in that same price category...Laredo, Pazoda, The H.U.G. that I really like, Carson M16, KISS,

Re: Knifes you can't lose.
MY BAD:
I was at the Knife Depot site and I locked on the $5 and didn't read the part about Save $5.
The $18 to $25 prices are it.
