I have always carried a knife when climbing. And until yesterday, never used it in a tree. I'm up 50 feet in a palm, and on my way down. when i can, I repel down using my 8 backed up with a prusik. my prusik jams, I have on spikes, so foot lock is out. Easy to just cut the prusik, and reppel down. I'll always carry a knife.
