Samuel's smart. If he'd been forced to pick up a sword and fight, he probably would have, but he usually deals with his problems in cleverer ways--getting the hell out of dodge when things were about to go south, for instance, but leaving a means by which he could be contacted. He's also pivotal in the take-down of Havelock, Martin and Pendleton, because if he wasn't smart enough to trick them, Corvo would be dead. That likely did eons more to take down the new, corrupt Lord Regent than anything else he could have done.

Most of the characters didn't pick up a sword and fight--Corvo was the bodyguard, assassin, and condemned man, so why not leave it up to him? Samuel wasn't too proud not to assist in the missions, though, and didn't think/act like he was above Corvo. Guy deserves mad props.
