I'm a huge fan of the series "Lost", and in the first season we saw lot's of knives, the only Buck was a Buck 119 Cocoblo.
The first season dealt with the survivors of the plane's front section, but this season they have discovered a group of survivors from the tail section.
Also on the island are the mysterious "others" who have yet no been fully revealed, other than they are very violent and like ot steal children.
Anyhow, last night was a special episode to give the events that affected the tail section survivors for the first 46 days on the island. At one point, the "others" attack and one of the survivors kills an "other" and takes a Buck 110 from the body to keep.
Later she shows it to another person and says she wonders where they got a "military knife". When asked how she knows it's a "military knife", she says "look here at the tangstamp" she opens the Buck 110 (very clearly seen and it's a new standard production one), turns the knife so the camera can zoom in on the tang on the opposite side of where the Buck factory stamp would be, and you clearly see cold-stamped on the tang:
U.S. ARMY
She then says "they haven't made this model for over 20 years" (yet it's a brand new 110, supposedly been on a tropical island for that long but the brass is perfect)
Great to see a Buck 110 on a hit TV show, but jeez they coulda done some homework!
