There are thousands of knots. You need about ten, known so well that you can tie them in the dark, with cold, wet hands, while thinking about something else. That is the standard to aim for, because that is when you will need them: pitching a tarp by head torch in rain, lashing a splint, tying off a line to haul a pack across a gap.
