Need more information, Case makes a number of 'old school' pocket knives in that price range.

But again, without knowing how you intend to use a knife it's hard to know what to recommend. If you can find a good older (U.S.-made) Schrade Old Timer (carbon steel) or Uncle Henry (440A stainless) for fifty bucks or less, they're good serviceable knives. The stuff wearing the Schrade name now is made in China, and what I've seen doesn't impress me to say the least.
A Case Sodbuster is a very strong and useful larger single-blade knife for heavier cutting.

Kershaw Leek comes immediately to mind. It's one of my favorites, and apparently of quite a few others here, if you read the edc knife threads.

IF you buy a NEW Buck, it's clearly evident on the packaging. USA flag indicates USA-made. No flag = China-made. One of my fave EDC's is a "Ch-uck" stockman I got new for $5 at a gunshow.

If you're still looking, take a look at bdgreen's ad for Case knives in the accessories section of the classifieds. The Grand Daddy Barlow will fill the bill. Here's the link: http://smith-wessonforum.com/accesso...ives-sale.html
