My camping/wilderness gun has been my 6" S&W 586. I bought a S&W 57 in order to have a stronger .41 mag for that purpose, however this one is a first year (1963) and in too nice shape to shoot often let alone carry in a holster. So, I guess I'm going to just have to find a more beat up 57, a 58, a .41mag Ruger of some sort, or a new Taurus Tracker or Raging Bull in .41mag for that purpose. If I have to get the new gun though I might also look for .44mag or .45LC too in case I see something in those that I want more (maybe a .44mag or .45LC Vaquero). For right around the tent and campsite I like my Winchester 94 in 30-30 as well. For knives, I got two nice hunting/woods knives (a Boker Original Bowie and a W.R. Case folder) but they are too nice to risk getting too banged up too so I bought some cheaper Winchester hunting/woods knives for that purpose as well. I will probably add a Ka-Bar soon (which will replace the cheap Winchesters for woods use).
