If You Could Choose Only One Knife?

Busse CABSLE. Because I could make due with it until rescued or until I die of "natural causes." Which, in your scenario, could be pretty much anything.

You oughta just make it one knife that YOU own. which in my case I would be somewhat screwed as I don't own a lot of survival/bush type knives yet. From my arsenal I would probably go old school and pick my cattaraugus 225q
 
I haven't had any chance to use it yet, but IF my new Swamp Rat RMD lives up to its reputation, I think it's the one I'd want. If it doesn't pan out to be a great knife, then I'd have to say my Leatherman Charge.

In the summer I'd take my David Farmer below. In the winter I'd take a hatchet. I feel a hatchet is better at the tasks I do then any knife I've used. In the summer I hardly need a knife so I'd take the Farmer because it's an awesome food prep and fuzz stick knife. It's 3/32 thick 1095.

I know these threads get overdone, and often, they are a thinly veiled way for people to ask: Which knife should I buy? But that's ok, we're a knife forum, we talk about knives. It may be an overused subject, but in the end, it's all goodness! :-)
 
Ideally a Busse, but I would feel ok with a Bark River or Fallkniven. I think survival depends more on what's in your head than in your sheath.
 
Les Stroud usually has to make-do with whatever he finds on hand. It isn't his knife but his skills that makes the man. Doesn't matter if you have the biggest, most expensive flavor-of-the-month knife with you if you don't know how keep alive.
