Which knife is Tom Cruise using in Mission Impossible - The Final Reckoning?

[Mr200de]

Hey guys,

I just saw the newest Trailer for the upcoming movie „Mission Impossible - The Final Reckoning“ and right in the beginning you can see a knife.
Does anyone know by chance if this knife is actually a real existing knife or just a movie prop?




These screenshots are from this clip:

(Roughly at 0:09min)

Thx in advance and best wishes from Germany,

It looks like the same knife Jean Reno used in the first MI movie
Dont know if it is a real available one or just a prop
I want one

Prop knife.

Heck, in some scenes (like this one) it might be pure CGI.

Looks like something Tom picked up in a truck stop.

I think some of it was cgi - for the fall and stick in the desktop
But Jean holds it before the drop and then (cant remember exactly when in the movie)
he uses it to kill someone through a metal bar fence
and then its in the new movie - trailer at least - so prop ?

You can find online references to the resin props that were sold after the first movie. Claims back then were that a Boker was used as the starting point for the model, but who know if it's true.

Has Bladeforums had a thread dedicated for knives used in movies ?

Yes. Although there are countless threads on this forum dedicated to knives in specific movies and tv shows, here's a link to an all-inclusive movie/tv show knife thread- https://www.bladeforums.com/threads...-scenes-involving-knives-other-blades.1765288

Thx to y‘all for the quick replies!

I remember sitting in the movie theater, watching MI:2 and then seeing the famous scene with the knife stopping just before TC‘s eye, and I was like:
Hold on a second, I pretty sure that‘s the knife I own for a few years, and yes, it was my/the Kershaw knife.

My hopes are that the knife in the (last) Mission Impossible is a real one, cause I‘d buy one for sure!

Tbh, I didn’t use my Kershaw knife for anything in real life
I bought it in the early 90s because my (older) cousin had this knife and I liked it from the get go
And till now I haven’t used it for anything
