What's the best EDC knife for a newfag like myself who doesn't want to fuck up and slice myself open with how fast some of these knives open? What type of newb friendly & safe "opening mechanism" would you recommend while I get used to the mere fact of carrying daily?
I'd recommend a Victorinox Cadet.

I got one of these not too long ago to replace a knife that I lost in the woods. Finish could be better, but its not a bad knife for the price. Easy open, 4 different clip-carry positions, inexpensive....comes in two sizes and many different color combos.
What's your budget? Do you have a particular style that you think you would like?

You won't find a more foolproof newb friendly and safe opening/locking mechanism.

Sounds like you need a butter knife.
