Not sure what type of time-frame you have in mind (if you're like me, ya' gotta have it now, nOW, NOW!) lol)...BUT....
Check out the knife counter in the Wal Mart sporting goods department from time to time. A few months ago, there were some closeouts, and I picked up a FEW various pieces for some great prices. Example: I picked up two Leatherman Juice S2's (the orange handled one) for * * SEVENTEEN * * dollars each! (Would have loved for them to have had more of those, as I'd have bought all that I could afford at that price!)Dunno what the deal is, but I sure didn't argue...and I still see those things selling for around $50 retail in many places. Besides those bargains, there were many Bucks, Gerbers, and SAK's.
I have no idea when those types of deals come along, but it pays to keep your eye out, and I sure do everytime i'm in the Wally World, now.
Good luck, and I'm sure that you will be able to come up with a nice piece in that price range. There are some great suggestions in this thread.
