From: Resident Evil 4
Genre: Video Games
Who said it?: Leon S. Kennedy
The story behind the quote: This week’s quote comes from Capcom‘s Resident Evil 4, both the original and the Remake (sort of). The original version of Resident Evil 4 was a major landmark in video games as series creator Shinji Mikami decided to reinvent the series, focusing more on action elements while still keeping a lot of the horror which made the franchise popular. In the game, you control Leon S. Kennedy, a special agent of the United States tasked to rescue the President’s daughter, Ashley Graham, who had been kidnapped. However, what is supposed to be a rescue mission leads to a mission that might save the world.
The quote comes from the middle of the original game. As Leon searches for Ashley, she runs across Ada Wong, a mercenary he has had a previous encounter with before. The two fight but Leon gets the upper hand as he uses a close quarters weapon rather than Ada’s gun. As he holds the weapon close to Ada’s throat, Leon delivers the quote.
The quote also appears in Resident Evil 4 Remake. While it does happen pretty much in the same way, the quote has been altered a little bit.
Geek wisdom: Always try to use the right tool for the right situation. If you need to strike a nail, your best bet is to use a hammer. While another implement might work and you can try to improvise, always go for the proper tool whenever you can.
My Geek Wisdom 
Quite true, but also unlike a gun that can only be used so long as it has bullets a knife has limitless uses and can be used again for self defense, combat, survival, whatever. More handy in a zombie apocalypse. I mean in a situation like that is no surprise that guns and ammo are first things to go, considering how wasteful people can be with them.
