I carry compass overkill (not as bad as knives, but close).
I am lately in a confessional query mood – how many knife cutting blades do you usually carry on a trip? I’ll count, and I suspect my own answer to that question is beyond overkill:
Rescue folder on PFD lash tab
Leatherman in essentials bag
“Mechanic’s” Swiss Army in essentials bag.
Sheath knife in essentials bag or on person
Small Swiss Army in personal first aid kit
Oh crap, there is a Swiss Army in the big group first aid kit (which doesn’t come on every trip)
And another Mechanic’s SA in the Spare and Repairs Ditch kit (likewise not on every trip)
Five at a minimum, seven max. Eight when I fished and carried a filet knife. Honestly, I am not infatuated with knives, but I don’t know which one I would remove from my kit. I am sure there are folks who carry one or two, and maybe a few who carry more.
What blades do you bring?
