My favorite folders are the Chris Reeve Sebenza and the Lone Wolf Harsey Tactical Folder.
Those are high end knives and will cost some serious coin.
On a mid-price range, Strider and Emerson make some great products.
In the budget line, I have had good luck with the Benchmade folders with the Axis locks.
Try to figure out what you need to do with the knife, and pick the price and proper size range.
Then handle all of the ones you are considering.
A knife is too important a tool to spend over a hundred dollars on one which does not do what you bought it for or that you don't really like.
I am sure that our resident knife expert will be along shortly to give you some great advice.
Good luck!

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." - President Theodore Roosevelt, 1910
