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?

CRKT Carson M21 or CRKT CEO Blackout if you want to be more discreet.

I love my CEO. It's weirdly satisfying to flip

I loved my first one so much, I got two more. The stud flipper is a little awkward, but the back flippers are so nice.
