The Benchmade Harley Davidson Osborne in silver aluminum handles, axis locks and SV30 Super Steel, has been in my pocket for the last month. I don't even notice it until I have to use it.
It's a thin handled knife with a suprisingly perfect blade shape.
Look in the discontinued models section at KW.

Thanks for all thr advice.

Now favouring the Mini Presidio 525BK-1101 from KW as suggested by loonybin, M4 steel has a good rep & with the black coating this should minimise the problem that it is non-stainless.

By EDC I meant to go ın my go-bag which I carry most of the time including when I go walking in the bush although most use will be for the normal uses of cuttıng things like cardboard and rope.

If it is for your go bag, maybe a little more length of blade would be okay fine? If you like the 525, look at the 520.

And a little more length still will get you the fabulous 710. I seldom leave home without one.

Looking for 558DLCM4-500 number 029 and 520BK-1101 number 99

If it's in a go-bag, then the Emissary is definitely out. However, you could possibly carry a slightly larger knife as well, as Jan suggested. The 520BK-1101 would be great, as would a 950 Rift. For blade steel, the KW 520 has the Rift beat. For handle grip and feel, I personally prefer the Rift.
