We're having a high school graduation party for my daughter in a few weeks. She's been home schooled and has met all requirements to graduate. She also has more than half of the credits required for her Associates Degree.
I'd like to buy her a very nice but functional fixed blade knife. Prefer blade length around 3.5" in a hunter style, but I'm open to useful designs. She is right-handed with small/medium sized hands. She's not a girly-girl but a feminine touch wouldn't be objectionable. I'd like it to be attractive and well-executed, and expect it will be used on her elk hunt in November. Prefer new/like-new. Budget is flexible based on the knife.
Please let me know what you have and your asking price, as well as pictures. PM is fine.
Thanks in advance, all!

Thanks for all of the suggestions, guys. I have one of Mike's knives and have bought from Vince before. Good stuff so far.

Call up Bark River or Rapid River knife works. Both places make great gear. Can get it custom made.
