>>689618then you probably want something 3 inches long, and uncoated. Don't go too short, or it will be a detriment to food prep.
I'd recommend something like this, but I still don't know if you fancy spending $150 on a small knife.
On the low end, you can get something like a condor mini bushlore (around 35 bucks) - they can be a little hit or miss at times, but the design is pretty solid.
Add to that the izula/msk I already mentioned, and pick something in your price bracket.
