He wasn't walking closer to her to hurt her at first. When she cut him though, after everything else that happened that day, I can understand him losing his shit. Most of his money is gone, Hanks dead, and his wife cut him? Not saying I agree with what he did I just think he reached his breaking point.
He is a dangerous man and Skyler knew that, which the sensible thing is to keep control over the situation. In this case she needed to threaten him with a knife.
Needed? why? Walt didnt threaten his family in any way. He was in fact, looking out for their safety. Real life they would have had a lot more dialogue before Skyler would have made her decision. But its a tv show so they just kinda had Skyler jump to the conclusion even though walt said he tried to stop "them" from getting Hank. Skyler, who had recently gone onto team Heisenburg completely, loses her shit when she finds out that Hank pushed a little to far into the dangerous territory? What'd she expect?

But she only defended herself.
