I usually use an axe when camping or a hatchet

since i'm new to BC.. I have heard that a mid sized (6") knife and axe is what is commonly carried here. I can see carrying an axe for winter hiking where keeping warm/dry is required. But do you think a large (8-11) survival knife is good enough for summer outings?

So far, for summer hiking, I have been going with the big & small combination. Small being 4.5" and 8-11 for big.
