I have to go with everyone else on this one. Of the two you have found to tickle your fancy, I suggest the spydie. now with Spyderco as the topic, there are so many great blades they produce in you specified price range that, if i didn't have a long list of prerequisites for a knife, and I was in your position,... I would be overwhelmed. Even more so, because like others have mentioned, grips and mini grips are in the same range as well many other quality brands offerings. My suggestion would to be to buy a delica, mini grip, Manix g10, and whichever two you find to be less favorable,... Send them to me and I will make sure they do not offend you any further,... What can I say,... I'm just a friendly SOB ;p
Spyderco Centofante 3 ranks second to my absolute favorite EDC the Stretch. VG-10 Stretch $78. Centofante 3 is $58 or so. Stretch is really a great all around slicer type , Centofante a dressier gentleman type blade.
