Both.
If I had to pick one, then I'd pick knowledge.
Only in the world that I live in.
In our world/time, raw knowledge goes a bit further than being wise.

I think you need both.
But booksmart will get you a "better" job than common sense.

Although you need both, knowledge is superior in the context of everyday life. You're not going to get far on common sense alone.
However, common sense can lead to knowledge, as one can be smart enough to find education and choose the right path in life. Therefore, I say that wisdom leads to knowledge, and is a subdivision of it.

Having Neither, I wouldn't know.
I'd probably guess wisdom. Knowing allot and not having the wisdom to act on it properly can be frustrating. On the other hand, those who have allot of common sense can often "feel" their way through allot of situations even when they don't have the actual information most people would need in advance, IMHO.

Knowledge and Wisdom go hand in hand so much it's hard to tell. Even if you're really knowledgeable, doesn't mean you'll get by too well if you can't know how to use it. The Rain Man was capable of storing and he had a ton of knowledge, but he couldn't put it to use. Wisdom is the same way if you just know how to do basic stuff, you won't get far in life. I'd say, overall though, Wisdom alone- literally know knowledge and no ability to retain it at all, wouldn't get you killed as fast as Knowledge alone. But it all depends on a lot, like the situation and the degrees to which you have both.

Actually, Rashou, you've made me think a bit, and you're right, knowledge without wisdom is a dangerous thing. Infact, I'll go one further: Knowledge with VERY LITTLE wisdom is a dangerous thing.
So yeah, I'm deffinetly saying wisdom, now. Knowledge can be fun and even useful, but it's wisdom that stops you from jumping off the cliff just to prove to others your extensive knowledge of gravity and wind resistance razz .
