Buck "Survival" Knife?

TAH said:
Okay, this question is asked frequently on the forums, but I'm bored and this time, it is Buck specific. ;)

You know the drill...you're lost in the woods, mountains, jungle, desert (I'll even let you pick the location). Your gear consists of a firestarter, compass, stainless water bottle, and a tarp, but somehow magically, you get to choose one Buck knife (past or present model) for all your survival needs. Which knife would you choose and why? And of course, photos are always welcomed. :D

Easy. Buck 119. The quintessential American hunting knife. Nothing comes close. It was perfect 45 years ago when I got my first one, it's still perfect now.
 
I'll fall in with the 124 crowd, I would rather have a big ass knife and not need it, than too small of a knife and wishing for the 124. This was a surprisingly tough choice between my 124 and 119...
