Alright. It's the end of days. The zombie hordes are at your door and you are heading out as fast as you can run. You have time to grab ONLY ONE knife. No combos. No "but it's a knife AND a SWORD!"
What's the ONE blade you would trust your life with if it had to do so exclusively?
I'm thinking "Chopweiller." Not the best fighter, but it can do everything you need from a blade and do it well while not being too big to carry. I've used it to make fires, prep food, clear brush, and even butcher a pig.
I'd think the TGLB would be a good one, but have nothing to base that opinion on other than the antics of Daryl Dixon and "Man Woman Wild."
Opinions?

NMSFNO would be my choice. That's a good choice. I wish I still had mine. Since I don't have a NMSFNO, I will go with my BWMLE.
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

It would be my CG Dogfather because it is one of the only busse kin I have a sheath for at the moment....and it's a total beast.

+1 for the NMSFNO. It's a tough knife to beat.
If size/weight was a major factor, then an S5LE would be a great blade.

If this was limited to knives only, it would be a Busse Basic 10 LE. If tomahawks were an option, I would take the MO Kill Devil Sniper Hawk instead. Of course, I'd prefer to bring both if at all possible......

I think this would be my choice, although my hinderer is never out of my pocket when I am not in prison so it could be the one also along with a hatchet. I think the regulator or in this case deregulator would be hard if not imposible to beat in SHTF conditions.

If I could only have one, it would probably be my RMD. It's a heck of a knife for it's size. The DeRegulator would be my #2 pick.

Tough one... I would have such a hard time leaving the rest of my blades behind, I would need several boxes of Kleenex to wipe down my tears.
BUT, I would take my SFNO Le... Feels great in hand, and it looks so good. And the thickness is great for an allrounder.

Part of me wants to pick something bigger, but I know that will do almost everything better.
I've got better tools for zombie defense than a knife of any kind.

Given the established guideline, I would go with my DFLE.
