The 342 Vantage Pro Small knife is a great lightweight, smooth opening option.

The full bellied blade offers remarkable cutting ability. This knife can be opened quickly and easily using either the flipper or the thumb hole on the blade. The blade locks open using a stainless steel liner lock. This everyday knife is built with two stainless steel liners for extra durability and safety. The ergonomic grip, made from injection molded reinforced nylon with contoured G10 material, provides a comfortable and secure grip while you work.

Length closed: 3 3/4"
G10
Available on black version: An almost indestructible resin laminate that is resistant to heat, cold, chemicals, impact, and other abuse. These tough, durable qualities make G10 well suited for a knife that will get well used in extreme environments.
Liner Lock
A Liner Lock is a folding knife that locks open via a tensioned metal liner inside the handle. Similar to a Lockback, opening the blade activates the lock. Unlocking is achieved by placing the thumb on the front part of the liner and pushing to the left, which releases the blade. Liner locks are typically one hand open, one hand close. A blade thumbstud, flipper, or hole, enables one hand opening.
Flipper Knife
A flipper knife opens by engaging the tab on the top of the knife with your index finger for rapid deployment.
