Survival knife #1 : Regulator 6.5
Likes : Because the best knife is the one you have with you. I own this one and it is a little easier to handle than my other Regulator. It feels good in hand and gets 'er done while feeling like it will outlast me.
Survival knife #2 : Leatherman Charge TTi
Likes : This is one of the few Leathermans with higher grade steel for the blade. S30V. Without listing all the tools, it can handle most repair jobs on my gear and do some bush craft to boot. I pack the bit collection with it so it will handle most fasteners/screws.

Survival knife #1 Scrapper 6 heavy enough to do most chores but small enough for delicate work.
Survival knife #2 Super leathermen tools enough to spare, plus I love that saw.

1 DGCG super chopper (or Basic 7 for light travel)

2 Gerber multitool (I have about 4 or 5 of them). I like the replacable saw blades on Gerbers- so you can tailor the saw to the work piece and chuck dull saws away!

You can't easily go wrong with a big Bussekin... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

The DFLE has always been pretty much at the top of the list, although the Basic 11, my new NMFBM is right up there too, along with my NMSFNO, and then there's the 6.5 Reg, and the S6, the Ratweiler and... Boy I just can't narrow it down to 2... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> Oh and there's always gotta be an SAK and /or Multitool in the mix as well. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Great choices guys. Of those that have chosen a multi-tool for one of their survival pack knives (or even if you haven't but have an opinion), which do you prefer and why? Leathermen or Gerber?

I want a NMSFNO and a B-11...and a weinerdog! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> Maybe someday.

For now, I would settle for the new SY offering whatever that might be. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

1. B-11
2. SS4

This combo gets the most workout by me. I haven't found much they can't do...and do well.

The chief cause of unhappiness and failure is trading what you want most in life for what you want at the moment.

I like the SOG multitool with the compound leverage, not sure the model right now.
