Pocket Knives Under $50 | Best Budget EDC Folding Knives
Under $50 is the sweet spot of everyday carry — the price band where real brand names, proper locks and good steel all show up, but the knife still earns its keep instead of living in a display case.
The brands that own this price band
This is Kershaw's home turf: SpeedSafe assisted openers like the Clash and Chive live here, and icons like the Leek dip under the line on sale. You'll find CRKT's field-proven designs, Buck's classic American lockbacks, Cold Steel's famously tough Tri-Ad folders, and hundreds of traditional patterns — trappers, stockmen, barlows — from names collectors know.
What to look for at this price
At under $50 you can be picky. Want one-hand speed? Look for assisted opening flippers. Hard-use jobs? Prioritize the lock — lockbacks and frame locks here are genuinely strong. Weekend fishing or hunting? Purpose-built folders with gut hooks and fillet blades sit all through this range. Steels step up too: 8Cr13MoV, 420HC and AUS-8 dominate — all easy to sharpen and plenty for daily work.
