When someone pulls out a knife, the main thing to do is get the fuck out of there. No martial art makes it safe to fight someone with a knife.
If you can't get the fuck out of there, you need to get the person with the knife as far away from you as possible. Muscles help here, simply because being big makes you more intimidating.
If you can't stay away from the guy with the knife either, you need to disable him as quickly as possible. Once again, muscles help, for obvious reasons.

Nothing provides a good defense against weapons except for superior weapons or being extremely skilled in martial arts. However, unless you are willing to spend huge amounts of time training, you won't be extremely skilled.
