A good knife if very important - and for me, a needed tool in everyday life. I have a Gerber belt tool with 2 short blades & needle nose pliers of course, then a pair of folding blades, one in each front pocket with the right pocket having the sailor's knife, left pocket the folding lock-blade - they are all handy and are used just about every day.

When hunting, I also have my knife belt with 3 knives (only really need one) and a skinning axe for splitting pelvises and sternums.
