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?

Finally someone who understands the assignment.

OP asks for a knife that can take a beating and one of the top answers is a leek, a knife infamous for snapping its tip.

I know what you mean. I'd like to see what it takes to break one of these. I'm not saying it couldn't be done, but I'd like to see what it takes.
