How... Not sure how you're going to sort out all these opinions!
I vote for:
3" sheepfoot blade (still has a point, but it's a stronger point than most profiles)
Full tang (an 'integral' would allow for a hammer-pommel, but expensive to produce)
hard grippy composite scales (like bead-blased G10 or rough-finished carbon fibre)
1/2 serrated would be fine. Serrated H1 blades seem to hold up well from my reading.
Flat or convex grind (tougher than hollow ground. This is a UTILITY knife)
NO Tanto profile (most people can't sharpen them correctly - it is more challenging)
NO hidden tang
NO rubbery scales
NO long pointy tip
