So lets say I wanted to replace this knife with something else, because this knife isn't an option. The rules of this scavenger hunt are these:
-6" blade length
-small foot print (meaning I'm trying to avoid a 6" long 4" tall rectangle on my hip)
-As close to completely choiless as possible
-Non tactical/military/fighting/scary-to-sheeples looking if at all possible
-Preferably with a finger guard
-Thick and heavy enough to (lightly) chop/pry/baton with (all wood/camp type requirements)
Thus far the only candidate I've found is the Kellam ranger puuko:
All of these requirements boil down to a few things, this is my 'when no one else brings any wood working tools' knife that I'd have on me at all times. Because 'all times' really does mean everywhere, it ideally needs to be as small and efficient as possible while looking people friendly (or as friendly as it can). The choiless requirement is because I have personally gotten plastic sheeting, burlap, netting, tangled string and fabric caught in various sizes of choils, they serve no benefit for me personally and present problems all while taking away usable edge.
