My dad is finally retiring (he is 74) and I wanted to get him a nice pocket knife.  He has always carried a case or small swiss army knife, and I was wanting to get him a knife with a pocket clip for him to try out.  I also want to also get it inscribed with something to make it more personal.  He doesn't wear jeans much, except for saturday's when he's working around the house and he usually dresses more in business casual/dockers and similar.  I was looking for something more in the lines of a "gentleman's knife" as anything large or tactical would likely turn him off a bit.  Something quick and easy to open and close and I was thinking of something under $250 but would rather be in the $150 range.

You guys have any suggestions?  Also any recommendations on getting it inscribed or just go to the mall?
