If I could know the situation I would choose the knife to suit it . . . That's an entirely different scenario than the one we're dealing with here. Assume that you WON'T know what the situation will be until you're faced with it. Now choose just one knife to deal with all potential situations, foreseen and unforeseen. Which single knife would you choose? OK, I'll say the DF. I'll hide the SS4 in my belt in the small of my back so I don't have say I have it too... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

If I knew the situation would be in the Altamaha River Swamps, I'd choose the Condor Jungle Bowie. Come to think of it, that would be a great choice for the city, too. But for only one knife for all situations, I'd take one of the medium-sized Busse Group knives, 5" to 7" blade.
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

Of course we are all knife nuts here, so we woud choose our blades based on where we were going and what we would be doing. Back when I spent more time in the Altamaha, I carried 3 knives, SAK Recruit, Bucklite, and Cold Steel Kukri. Now that I am fat and old I have much upgraded choices available. The SAK would remain, though.

It comes down to two the DF and the YK. You included the word urban so of the two I would choose the YK.

This is a hard one. cannot see myself ever having only one knife. If I did, my priority would be getting another. Only one? Swamprat satin Battlerat, Scrapyard bowie, Valois survival bowie, one of my customs, must think this one out...

cargo pants can carry alot. Cargo pants are great. I used to catch a lot of kidding about wearing BDU pants all the time. I love them. I got a deal on a Benchmade Skirmish. That is a very rugged framelock. Kind of heavy, though.
