I was reading that serration is a bad idea. Too hard to sharpen. People with these mora knives say they can be used to fell trees. Drive the knife in tip first (hit it with a log). Then hit it back and forth with log. Once in to hilt, you can stand on it. I'm going to get one.

If I lived in a colder area, I would always keep a wool blanket, candle, fire-starting supplies in my car. OnStar wouldn't be a bad idea either. Or a personal beacon device, but that may be overkill.
