DAE count their knife roll to realize they've been carrying 14 knives and only using 4?

I laid everything out on the pass after close on Saturday and counted 14 knives in my roll, which honestly shocked me since I grab the same chef's knife, paring knife, and serrated for 90% of my prep. The weird part is I keep adding more because each one felt necessary at some point, like the boning knife I use maybe once a month on fish day at the restaurant on 9th. Has anyone else done this and actually trimmed down, or do you just accept that half your roll is basically dead weight?
