Battle: Los Angeles.
In the scene in the office,there is a 1217 in its sheath next to the phone.
Some of the Marines also have a Mule folder on their vests.

Just a big shoutout for this post GIRLYmann!
I've not seen this mini series, so bought a copy to watch.
Plenty of Ka-Bars,a few Aussie actors as well,just wont be going to Snafu for any dentistry!
Some of the battle scenes were shot in my home state of Queensland!

In the movie "Jarhead", The Staff Sgt,M-60 gunner, and Lt. Col have a 1217 on their webbing belts.

(Since my riding accident/fall/impalement in November I have been put on "light duties" while I recover from surgery and heal.
2 I/C is adamant I dont overdo it. So getting to watch some movies and do a bit of knife spotting.)

"Air America", the loadie (air freight specialist) has a 1217 in the scene were he falls out the back of the plane and climbs back in using the safety tether!

"15 Minutes of War" Camillus Mk2(?)

One of my favorite things to do when watching movies is to see if I can spot a knife (of any make) to pin down what the knife is. There are so many movies with KA-BAR's in them now sometimes I think that is the only reason I watch movies anymore. One of my new favorites the Netflix Punisher series that came out a few years ago. On The Walking Dead The Governor carried a discontinued KA-BAR; when we asked about it we were told it was his own personal knife that he brought with him from home. I have always wanted to compile a list of movies that a KA-BAR appears, though it can be difficult to determine if it is actually a KA-BAR - sometimes they are simply props made to look like a knife and many simply associate the Fighting/Utility Knife with what a knife should look like.

I thought he carried a D2 extreme? Is that the right one?

Sniper, in the scene where he lures the Panamanian sniper with a knife in the stream (admittedly it's one of the cheap 'survival knives' which then morphs into an Ontario 498/KaBar 1217)

Liked this movie a lot when it came out, the best of them all IMO.
In the scene of the train crossing the bridge, the engine has the "QR" (Queensland Rail) logo on the side.
This is the Kuranda Scenic Railway train, goes through 15 tunnels and over 37 bridges from Cairns to Kuranda in the heart of the NQ Rainforest.
Filmed in my home state of Queensland!

In the movie "Escape the Field", there is a KA-BAR 1217.
An older model with low grind and what looks to have a painted silver blade.(?)

Good knowledge! I'll look for that next time I watch it
