Come along to the amazing Summer Moot (21st July - 2nd August), a festival of bushcrafting and camping in a beautiful woodland PLEASE CLICK HERE for more information.
One I would make to fit in a Nalgene bottle if I wanted to make a survival kit out of it
That's of course an option but I always try to develop plug and play solutions which easily can be copied by everybody who knows about it.
I think about the Terävä Jääkäripuukko 85 and ask myself which alternatives exist.

Varusteleka Jääkäripuukko 85, Carbon Steel - Varusteleka.com
A very small and handy little knife with a drop point puukko style blade profile.

Several of Roselli's knives will go. Carpenter, Bearclaw, Grandmother, Grandfather .... if I was stuck somewhere I wouldn't much object to the Carpenter being the only knife I had.

Example Knives
Mora Classic 1 would fit, but isn't full tang.
Manly Patriot is too long.
Roselli full tangs are too small.
Example knifes too beautiful to be locked into a bottle and a bit pricy in the first view.
Ezee Izula would probably work.
But Terävä Jääkäripuukko 85 has the longer blade and seems to me to be the better survival knife.
Any other ideas?

I have seen that they offer a metal wire clip for the plastic sheath too.
Does it work well?
Do you know if the plastic sheath really holds the knife like a Mora sheath, or is it more like such a blade protection for a kitchen knife?
Can plastic sheath and metal clip replace the leader sheath as secure belt attachment?

That doesn't look like a survival knife but nevertheless pretty interesting.
That is exactly what I was surching for since several years: Something I really need but didn't know that it exists. And an item that I don't already own, just made by the competition.
Who makes it?
What's the name??
Where can we all buy it immediatly???

Does it need to be full tang or would a skeleton tang do ?
I'm thinking about the Aitor knives that are often included in survival kits anyway.

Casstrom Safari would fit for sure. Especially in its kydex sheath
Being realistic I would suggest a Mora Eldris. Short enough to fit the Nalgene, and has a practical grip. Whilst not full tang the reduced blade length makes for less leverage/stress where the tang meets plastic. So it should be strong enough to cope with abuse from most people.
Do you mean that the tang is too small? The knife itself, the Carpenter, is 195mm OAL.
