Your favorite movie where a knife almost takes centerstage.

[rockon]

Predator gotta love that big knife.

Dangit you beat me to it!

 

[rottwang]

Spartan.. The end scene seems to be set up for a big protracted shootout and suddenly, in the blink of an eye, the folding knife kills the badguy.

 

[z17813]

My bad.

Haha not at all
Lets face it they are pretty similar knives based on the ole Fairbairn-Sykes fighting knife, with a broader point to avoid the risk of breakage. I just have a vivid memory of it cause I almost stood up in the movie when I saw it, its bloody awful when you get so excited by a hobby that freaks out so many people

 

[rottwang]

I think the members of the House of Atreides wore the Sykes-Fairbairn daggers in the 1984 David Lynch movie Dune. heh heh heh.

 

[TAH]

Ka-bar that Lee Marvin and Toshiro Mifune fought about.

Hell In The Pacific. :thumbup:

Knife in the Water (Polish: Nóż w wodzie) made in 1962. A subtitled film directed by Roman Polański. The female lead takes my breath away while the banned-in-Boston wood scaled gravity knife is a character in its own right with a prominent role and many close-ups.

legends of the fall - stag handled bowie - nice

Hey... CorpsmanUP. Saw you name and had to say hello. I was an FMF Corpsman during Vietnam. That kinda gives me a soft spot for the Ka-Bar... Welcome Home

 

[CorpsmanUP!]

Thank you. I'm sure you've seen your share of action. someone recently told me when marines talk about a few good, men they are refering to their corpsman. my first knife as a kid was usmc ka-bar. the knife i just made looks like a ka-bar.

Waterworld. Kevin Costner gives the girls a haircut with a khukuri.

 

[silenthunterstudios]

Not my favorite, but just saw Seraphim Falls. Not only used for killing, but for survival as well.

 

[m_calingo]

Benchmade automatic...forget what model (presidio?) from The Heist with Gene Hackman and the penguin, i mean Danny Devito!

I think the knife was actually an Emerson CQC7 with the BT finish.

Thomas Jane was shown using a lot of cutlery in The Punisher. I think that was the first movie of that type that actually showed a karambit (also Emerson) in use.

 

[dtownknifekid]

that was a good movie.

 

[STDK]

The Matador with Pierce Brosnan. That was one beautifull knife.

 

[T.K.C.]

My favorite movie with a knife taking center stage has to be "The Edge" with Anthony Hopkins.

 

[waffle]

Two faced, I think it's called with Nick cage and John travolta. Where the girl stabs the guy in the thigh with that bali song

 

[ItchyTasty]

+1 On Big Trouble In Little China. There's a good amount of knife in that movie.

 

[Foilist]

"Chronicals of Riddick" is a cheesey sci-fi movie (but I liked it anyway) in which the protagonist favors blades to other weapons.

 

[ZoomZoom]

V for Vendetta. I didn't see that one mention yet.

 

[Paul Kersey]

The knife didn't really take center stage throughout the plot, but it was used in The Abyss by Michael Biehn to carve his arm up under the table.
