I think Naftoor has it covered. I've actually seen them in person, so I'll add my 2 pennies worth. The Fjallraven store in SF had the Chapter knife on display, they may have had the Folsom also, but I didn't look at that too carefully. The Chapter was well made but the design was nothing spectacular. The ratio of blade length to handle length was poor. The ergonomics were serviceable. And D2 steel for a >$200 knife is pretty much a joke at the current time. The Folsom is a slightly better value since it's $100, nevertheless you can do much better for half the price from CRKT or Spyderco's Byrd. You can also get a VG-10 Spyderco Stretch for the same price, a much more ergonomic and efficient knife.

enkiduI see now that the james knives are not worth it. I personally are not a fan of handles that aren't minimalist looking. I just love simple handles and simple blades. Drop point is what i favor. I've seen some minimalist Ken Onion Knives on Massdrop. How do they hold up in general?

DMTTABKen Onion and CRKT make some of the best knives in their price range. If you like the ergonomics, they are a solid value, well designed and good execution. You won’t get super steels, but good reliable materials. With proper care, they’ll last longer than you’ll probably be carrying them.
