Now that's a hard choice!

My Badger e-handle is a great all arounder and easy to make invisible in a sensitive environment.

Though my Steel Heart e-handle has gone through literal he!! from me and keeps asking for more. And the profile is small enough to make invisible without risking anything valuable down there. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

dumpster mutt. didn't even have to think about it.

I'd go with the DM as well. I just wish it was a bit more corrosion resistant.

My favorite are a few: Ratweiler, steel heart & Camp Tramp. And, I'm dying for Scrapper 7!!!!!

Busse BATAC for me. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

SFNO!!!!

sounds like the dm and a 7 inch are the choices

I hate you and your SFNO . . . mostly because I don't have one *tear*.

As for my best survival knife, SH1A. Don't own one yet, but I'm sure it would be my best when I do. Camp Tramp with Res-C handle would be next. Can't wait for a Scrapper 7. That'd probably take the place of the CT.

this is a 1 knive only thread, I prefer shorter knifes but if it is meant for ALL things then it better be a big brute just in case: Weiler rules.

Good call on the 'Weiler!

I think I know one way to answer this with more than one answer.

If I could know the situation I would choose the knife to suit it.

Urban: SS4 or my Bad Warden as alternate. Concealability

Suburban: Guard or Hook as alternate. Versitility

Rural or wilderness: Dog Father or FSH, it's good to have a chopper. If I need something small I'll just Knap it from local materials.

If I don't get to know the situation, I'll take as many as I can get away with... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

There's saying that I really like when this type of question is posed:

If you can take nothing, take a knife, if you can take only one thing, take another knife... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
