Normally, you'd have a small multi-blade folding pocket knife, a medium folding lockback knife, and a large fixed blade knife. That takes care of all jobs this side of an axe or hatchet.
The best of the folding lockback knives is the original folding lockback knife; the, "Buck 110 Knife." The blade is 3 3/4" long on those. They usually range from $80-$120. I wouldn't buy them second hand or from a 3rd party dealer. The price difference is for the steel used in the blade. The cheaper ones are 420HC steel and the more expensive ones are S30V steel. The S30V steel is more difficult to sharpen, so use a good stone/diamond and learn how to sharpen properly on a cheap knife before attempting. There are many counterfeit Buck 110 knives out there so if you decide on a Buck knife, get it directly from the company,
