My favorite all-round knife is the Tracker Knife plus its smaller companion the Scout (made by TOPS). It was designed by a famous outdoorsman, tracker, and wilderness survival expert. Comes in two sizes, for larger and smaller hands. The Tracker knife is very durable and rugged and can be used for splitting wood, chopping, as a draw knife, for sawing, gutting, and just as an all-round great knife to carry.

The smaller one, the Scout, is what I use for things like carving, cutting smaller rope and twine, and just general stuff. Lighter weight and easy to carry, even as a neck knife.

I have an ATAX from Survival.com also made by TOPS in collaboration with Ron Hood, of Hood's Woods (survival.com) it's 1 piece of steel with cut outs and markings for various survival needs, including navigation, range finder, height measurement, fire bow bearing, etc...
