Just one thing. You are in France. There are some good knife makers there as well. Just for fun, look at this guy: BK Knives, Olivier Brier, from the Sancy area. Parttime custom knife maker, archer, aikido black belt and just a nice guy. Has a Facebook page:
https://www.facebook.com/Couteaux-BK-573936662771312/ . And sometimes shows up on knife shows. Gets some good comments in knife magazines. There are more like him, France just does not seem to have a huge industrial fixed-blade industry, they are more into pocket knives like the Laguioles and Opinels.
Just an example...
And speaking like a European (living in France), if you want a sturdy, no-nonsense outdoor knife (it is not a survival kniufe because the manufacturer or a knife nut calls it that, it becomes a de facto survival knife only when you find yourself in a real life-or-death situation and the knife doing what you need it to makes the difference), most here will probably agree that it's worth looking at the Terävä Jääkkäripuukkos from Varusteleka in Finland. Not pretty, but very sturdy, good tool steel, very good sheaths, they just work. And not expensive. Home of the Skrama.
