I've never seen a hollow handle "survival" knife that was worth a darn. Someone, somewhere, might make a decent one. But the ordinary ones you see at stores and gun shows all suck eggs.
The only ones I have are my Bushmen, both sizes. Probably not the best steel in the world, but a nifty design, and better than the plastic-handled dreck.
Chris Reeve Knives have a very good reputation, and at those prices, they darn well better be good. The fixed-blade knives are of one-piece construction, except for the screw-on butt-cap. Never tried one, but would like to.
The Buck-Masters are not bad, from everything I've heard.
The Robert Parrish custom knives are supposed to be the real deal. Same goes for the Jimmy Lyle knives that Rambo used. I would imagine the Gil Hibben reproductions are somewhat lower quality, and the United Cutlery knock-offs are probably at or below Jungle King quality.
I guess I may as well admit I was a knife dork for years, until I made enough money to buy guns. Given my economic circumstances, I'm back into knives again.
