5 - 1/2in blade
what will you be using the knife for? the first one that came to mind was the mini ka bar or even a mora
avoid the ebay knife.
a 5 inch classic fine edge ka-bar might fit the bill here. it's a carbon steel though, so you'll have to take a little extra care of it for rust resistance. you can find it on amazon:
