Cheap carbon steel knives I've had my hands on are Glock Field Knife, the Cold Steel GI Tanto, and the Cold Steel Bushman.
The GI Tanto is very heavy and effectively indestructible. My brother in-law describes it as an orc knife. Easy to make a spear out of but not as easy as the bushman. Can be bent 90 degrees laterally and spring back.
The Glock is also indestructable and while not as heavy as the tanto it isnt light either. Very thick spine. Comes with or without a root saw.
The bushman is much lighter and thinner than the other two. Turns into a spear really easily. Can also be bent 90 degrees laterally.
Not saying any of these are the best there is but I have used them all and I couldn't see any of them ever breaking outside of extreme abuse. They're also a fraction of your budget so that's always nice. Don't expect them to be pretty. They're purely utilitarian.
Under $30 in America now. I've bought two.

a knife that is a good size easy. it's easy to hide because it's dark and harder to spot in your hand with no reflection.

I've had mine for 28 years and when my son crossed over, I got him one.
I'm fairly certain that in 22 years I'll hand mine to him and he can hand his to his son.
They are bomb proof.
On a side note, you should see a Bear Scout batoning wood for the first time. Their facial expressions when they first grasp it, it's like it's them against the world in a fair fight.
