Hi, I have convinced a friend of mine that they should carry a pocket knife. They are a pretty small person with small hands and would primarily be using the knife for gardening and miscellaneous household cutting tasks, so a decent-sized blade and an action that is resistant to getting gunked up are what I'm looking for.
They also have a budget of max $100, but cheaper is better.
So I'm thinking some criteria:

Do you all have more ideas?

- A blade that is about 3" long
- Runs on washers but not bearings
- Easy to one-hand open and close
- A steel that leans towards toughness rather than edge retention (14c28n or D2 are my initial thoughts), but absolute toughness is not needed.
