I find myself in the market for a pocket clip folder lately too. I carried an Old Timer for many years as a kid, moved up to a larger lockback Case knife in 7th or 8th grade (still have it, still great) and carried it for 6-7yrs... got a Scharade Clip-hanger which I carried for about a decade (who knew they'd X-ray you going to see the Liberty Bell?)... then I took a few years where I carried cheap chicom "Winchester" folders (still have a bunch of them, surprisingly good steel)... My latest knife was a free Kershaw Kuro I won in a raffle, good steel to keep an edge, but I don't love tanto points, lost it a few weeks ago out of the pocket of my dress slacks playing on swings at a park with my boy... (Trust me - arriving at home an hour and a half away and realizing I'd lost my pocket knife AT A PLAYGROUND gave me pause - wasn't there when I went back)...

So now I'm looking... Love spring assist opening, and I've been carrying Liner-locks for ~almost 20yrs, so that's what I'll be getting. Rarely use it for anything more than pulling splinters, but I do like having a half serrated blade... Not a clip point or tanto point fan, but want a little more point than a really round drop point.
