OK, here's the deal: I'm a cop who has a fair bit of experience with the whole "self-defense" thing. If you want your wife to be able to protect herself from some kind of attack, a knife is an absolutely terrible way to do that. Don't get me wrong, a good pocket knife is something that everyone should carry: they are super useful for opening packages, cutting up snacks, even trimming hangnails in a pinch. But when a bad guy is trying to do you harm, a knife is a really bad way to stop it.
The very best thing your wife can do is to take a good self-defense class and learn some basic situational awareness, because the best way to win a fight is to avoid a fight. If she really wants to be able to protect herself, get her some good strong pepper spray. A good dose of this in the bad guy's face will give her time to run like hell and get help. Another good, but more expensive and less reliable, method is a Taser. Not some shitty stun gun that commonly gets called a "Taser," but and actual "probes shoot out and embed in the bad guy" Taser. Stun guns just cause a little sharp pain where and when they touch, but the taser gives you stand-off distance, and actually locks us the major muscles of the bad guy for 30 seconds (on this model, at least) if it gets a good hit. That said, I've used a Taser X26 on people a number of times, and when it works, it works great, but about a third of the time it doesn't work at all. A gun is a last-ditch choice, and then only if your wife is willing to put an enormous amount of time, effort, and money into instruction, training, and regular practice.
It's Canada, they don't. You can carry bear spray / dog spray though. It's cheap too https://www.amazon.com/SABRE-Red-Pepper-Spray-Strength/dp/B0007VHXO8

Some basic first aid stuff I carry is pictured too, foldable mini splint, first aid kit, pocket resuscitator, and a RATS tourniquet. I HATE the RATS, pretty garbage but my old tourniquet has somehow disappeared… plan on replacing it when I have the money. Also, I fucking love local beer!
For fishing I would use a stainless Mora, as although being great tools they are dirt cheap and you can replace them fairly easily.
As for self defense - I don't recommend practicing self defense with a knife (for legal reasons), you will probably be much better with a decent Sabre Pepper Spray.
It wasn't a pleasant experience but if any of us were set on attacking someone it wasn't going to stop us. If it's legal where you live I suggest this. A blast from that and you won't be hurting anyone for at least an hour.
That's why you bring the gun with you. Or if you don't have a ccw but are legally protected to have the gun in your car (texas? idk), get a good gun safe and lock it to the car somehow for the times when you have to go inside somewhere that is a gun free zone, like your kid's school that you had to drive an hour through the ghetto to get to. Idk, just an out of the blue scenario. But if I couldn't bring a gun with me in my car, I would bring pepper spray, but I wouldn't leave it in the car. I sometimes carry Sabre red with me for places I'm not allowed to bring my gun. It has a UV dye so you can identify for sure the person that attacked you, plus the screaming helps. Sabre red is really freakin hot, and it's a stream spray not a mist or cone.
