I am a strong believer in carrying at least one knife into the woods with me. But then I am the guy that you rarely find without a knife of some sort. I carry a Victorinox SAK Huntsman in my front pocket that is attached to a lanyard which also has my whistle on it. I always carry a Leatherman Pulse (ie. Locking blades) strapped to the shoulder strap of my pack and usually carry either an Ontario Spec Plus Survival Machete or a Schrade X-Timer Camp Knife. These are used for chopping fire wood or basic utility work.

It’s better to have and not need than to need and not have.
