BBJ, if you've had other knives break I'm not so sure that a Dozier or Dozier copy is going to be your best option. I have several Doziers and while they certainly are superb cutters they have pretty thin blade sections and are more likely to break under other than pure cutting than some other tougher knives.
I would strongly recommend a Fallkniven F-1 or any one of several Bark River Knives for your purposes. Both are renowned for their toughness and cutting performance. You might read up about them over at Knifeforums or the like. There are quite a few reveiws of them on you-tube as well. They are a little more than $100, usually under $120 which I think in the end is better money spent. A $115 that lasts for the rest of your life is cheaper than a $55 knife that breaks...........................DJ
