An old salvage diver told me to always pack a second dive knife, and I'm glad I listened

I was working a job in the Gulf last month, cutting some old cable off a wreck. My main knife got jammed in a piece of rope and the release strap snapped. I was stuck for a second, but I remembered the guy's advice and had the spare on my other leg. Pulled it out, cut myself free, and finished the cut. Anyone else have a piece of gear they always double up on now?

Tbh that's why I keep two tape measures on my truck.

Two? @jason_jenkins34, you're an amateur. I keep three.
