This is a "Stockman" knife. Do you own or work with livestock?? Do you collect folding knives for fun? if not, this may not be the knife for you.
A "good" survival knife is a straight, thick, chunk of steel. So you can pound on it, cut, slice, chop, etc. Made out of really hard steel (so it stays sharp longer) with an uncomplicated design (work edge vs razor edge).
But "preppers" and "survivalists" have a saying, "The best knife in a survival situation, is whatever knife you have on you". Because you can have a $500 survival knife, but it means "dick-all" if you don't have it on you when something bad happens.
Generally, a great budget survival knife is something like a "Mora Knife", inexpensive, uncomplicated, and used by over a million people for camping/hunting/fishing.
