Is that knife I linked to a good quality one? Dont feel like doing all the research. Or is there a better option in that price range. Must have a combo blade and be comparable in size to my kershaw leek and atleast be as thin. I hate fat knives and they work out of my pocket when climbing around at the jobsite.
When the time comes, Im going with a catapult still I believe.

The military is an excellent knife. The story behind that model is someone asked Sal (Owner of Spyderco) if his son were to go into the military, what knife would he want to send with him. It's a very tough knife, but still a very capable slicing knife. It's not a big brute of a blade like my Strider, but it is plenty strong for just about any task you could really ask of a pocket knife. It is a liner lock, but it's one of the best liner lock knives you can buy. Blade steel is s30v which has a proven track record of being a great knife blade steel.
Basically, if you want a slim G10 handle, 4" blade, good blade steel, and tip down pocket carry, then that's the knife for you. Like I said above, if it had the option for tip up carry I'd buy one. It's a nice knife, and pretty damn light for it's size as well. I don't think you'd be disappointed.
