If your looking for a huge inexpensive folding knife, id suggest the Opinel No. 13. Its massive, its like a mini machete. I think the blade alone is at least 22 inches. Comes with a leather lanyard on the handle.

Spartan or Pocket Bushman.  The PB is very flat in the pocket.

I carry a Cold Steel Recon 1 every day on my person.  Its not quite as big as you are looking for but it is a 4.2in blade and I love having a knife that not only has good reach on it if needed, but that also i can use the whole handle without my hand engulfing it.

I'd second this. I'd go for the Spartan. Owned one for a while. Truly a monster of a folder. And they can be found on e-bay and several dealers at close to $50-$60.

 

The PocketBushman is also quite large and very low priced.

Spartan's are great and they have the pocket deploying thumb stud on them.  Also check out the G10 Espada's  you can find them for quite a bit cheaper than their fancier brothers.

Spartan is a tank of a knife, edc one, not much it wont do, although ya gotta choke up alot to slice yer apple at lunch! The rajah 2 is still around for a good price, although its double the spartan.
