So the subject title says it all. Looking for a single, locking, stainless bladed folder with a clip. Thin is good. Serrated blades are not.
3-4" blades are prefered. 3.5" would be favorite, but they seem scarce.
I want to say cost is not relevant, but I'm sure someone knows of one that is going to bust the bank. No customs, I want this in real time.
My last, best knife was an Al Mar Eagle, Heavy Duty. Might get another, but maybe someone has a better suggestion.

Model #: 01BO310. The liner locking, 440C stainless steel blade features a generously sized opening, and a fine matte finish which harmonizes perfectly with the matte titanium bolsters.

Benchmade Griptilian has been very good for me. They make two sizes. The larger one would meet your criteria I believe.

OrangeOkie, Does that Trapper have a liner lock/ I can't see anything that says that it has any locking mechanism at all.
The heavier dedicated hunting knife is okay but I want an everyday knife and that's a bit overkill. I avoid knives with blade piercings too. They are PITA to keep clean.
The Griptilian has tempted me before but it looks bulky and I prefer a smoother grip for everyday convenience. As a dedicated hunter, they are great.
The Trapper suggestion lead me to a Boker Plus Burnley Kwaiken. I found a used early one on ebay w/o the flipper thing that I am not fond of, I shot him a low offer and he took it. I don't care for the scales on it right now but can probably replace them with Cocobolo easily enough.
I'm still looking though. That Trapper is intriguing, esp. if it has a locking mechanism of some sort.

I've gone from being one knife down to one knife above where I started. And may not be done yet. These things tend to run in streaks for me. Thanks again. Perfect suggestions.

I really like the clipped knives. I find 3 or 4 every fall that come unhinged from someone's pocket as they're 4-wheeling our back roads. First thing I do is remove the clip and give them a good sharpening.
