My list:
1) 18" AK
2) 18" WWII
3) Chiruwa AK
4) BGRS or 16.5" WWII
5) 15" AK or BAS
This is assuming that you'll be cutting wood. Any of them will be awesome up to about 3" diameter. The 18 inchers, will easily handle up to 6" diameter - the others can go there too, but not so easily. Anything bigger, and you might as well carry a saw.
For vines or flexy brush, go for an 18" WWII, or 20" sirupati. Only caveat is that you may have to do some reshaping of the WWII handle if you have a medium to small grip. Mine feels huge in my hand.
If you're looking for belt carry, I'd go with #5, but none of them are completely unwieldy on a belt.
*I own and have used all of the above, except the 16.5" WWII.
