The best thing I found for long term survival in the woods is a regular 21 inch bowsaw. With it you can make a tipi, cut firewood, build a sweatlodge, clear a trail, make wooden stakes, or quickly fashion a debris hooch. It's light and the blades are cheap though some care must be used in carrying. A great tool for the woods.
