Also, what sort of blades would you carry? This is what I currently carry:

- Leatherman Surge (for misc. tasks)
- Gerber Freeman S30V Drop point fixed blade (for field dressing)

I've heard of others carrying a kukri (or other survival type knife) for emergencies, but they are large (12", like a machete) and heavy. I'm not sure if the 19 oz. penalty would be helpful or just more weight to carry.
