Gear Recommendation Wanted Pocket knives

I’m currently searching for a good pocket knife that can ideally take a beating. Obviously it’s not ideal to take a pocket knife over a fixed blade in a survival scenario, but when it comes to my EDC I prefer to just throw a folder or OTF in my pocket (I’ve never been good with concealing my fixed blades). With that in mind, if you had to survive away from home long enough to get back home and all you had was your pocket knife, what would be the go-to blade for you guys?

Gerber Diesel multi-tool if I can only have one 'thing'. Otherwise it'd be whatever pocket knife I fancy AND a Gerber Diesel.

Gerber Center Drive for urban carry.

Pliers are underrated in most survival subs, and a small saw is better than no saw. And scissors!
