Fixed blade knife with hardened Sandvik 12C27 stainless steel blade made by Morakniv of Sweden and high-friction, anti-slip TPE rubber handleIncludes Swedish FireSteel fire starter that twist-locks into handle; spine of the blade is ground especially for use with a fire starterSwedish FireSteel is made from a magnesium alloy that produces a 3,000 degree C (5,400 F) spark; works when wet and lasts approximately 3,000 strikesBlade length: 3.75 inches (95 mm); blade thickness: 0.07 inches (1.9 mm); total length: 8.5 inches (215 mm); weight w/ sheath: 3.4 oz. (94 g)Color-matching plastic sheath with belt clip; 1-year manufacturer's warranty
With or without a fire starter these Moraknivs kick ass. They range from 11-28 dollars and are a perfectly adequate size for a rugged all purpose blade. The poly sheath is durable and the handle is comfortable enough for prolonged use. More importantly however, it comes in pink!
If you really want a monster sized knife, sure. But I'd definitely get the carbon steel version that some others have suggested as well. It sounds like their quality isn't too bad.
However, I don't know if I'd really want to take something that huge hiking. Maybe SHTF-type hiking I suppose.
A couple of knives that I'd think would be similar priced or less (and have proven reputations) and would slightly more practically fall into the "only 1" category:
Good luck regardless!
If you are thinking of getting a Mora there is one with a fire steel in the handle.
There's also the similar Light My Fire Swedish FireKnife which is only a little more expensive, if I'm doing my currency conversion right, and you get a knife you've heard of.
can the Mora/LMF fireknife count as one item?
Not that much time.
A lightweight mora is a good choice.
This one has a fire steel built in - http://www.amazon.com/Light-Fire-FireKnife-Stainless-FireSteel/dp/B007BO9G1W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1368545221&sr=8-1&keywords=light+my+fire+mora
Tarp, twine, dry bags, small fire starter knife. Of all my fancy knives that I own (used to work in the industry) this $22.50 knife is my favorite knife and I use it all the time camping.

like u/kimste2 said for the money you really can't go wrong with a Mora. If you insist on a full tang I also have a couple of the Survivor HK-106 knives and have been very impressed considering the price, they also come with a fire starter.
