For removing two wires for maintenance reasons is the knife splice or the fully insulated male/female push on best? If one uses the knife type wouldn't one need to use shrink wrap to protect the exposed knife portion of the connection?

Jonsey,
The knife splice is mechanically somewhat stronger, and you should slip on a piece of heat shrink before connecting. That said, the push on will work just fine as long as the stress is minimal.

Yup. See:

That's how we did it on the B-52's at Boeing when I was
working there . . . except we used a plastic sleeving
we called "irvolite" (sp?) and a string tie. Heat shrink
is the modern cover of choice for this legacy service
joint in a wire run.
