Kali and Silat without a doubt.
Both are brutally effective and very adaptable. They are war styles and have perfected the use of blades and in the case of Kali: sticks(long and short), flexiable weapons, bound fighting, etc.
Krav Maga is also good, but I firmly believe a Kali/Silat fighter has more at their disposal than a Krav fighter.

I can't go into depth about either of them but from what I do know I would go with kali and Silat. But if I couldn't do either of them Krav Maga would be my next choice. It's fast to learn and brutal in close combat including more than 1 attacker.

Weaponry?
Well, since I never carry weapons on me, I'm rather unknowledgable on this subject. But my old Wing Chun teacher did some Escrima and Fillipino Knifefighting too, he was sick with two sticks/knife. Really, I think any style with a knife is madly dangerous and should be avoided at all costs... But without bragging: my teacher was the sickest thing with a knife I've ever seen in my life. When he called me forward to demonstrate, I was scared as shit. And I don't scare easily when it's just training. He cut me up so quick, I hardly had time to even register the nicks and cuts in my mind. So I guess I'm gonna go with Fillipino Knifefighting. Although Kali and Silat are very dangerous too.

*snicker*
Fillipino Knifefighting IS Kali. Fillipino Kali. Kali uses knives(single and double, both grips), sticks(double and single, 4 grips), knife and stick, openhand, boxing, locks, and the list goes on and on.
