No reason for posting. Just thought this was a great photo. :D :thumbup:
 
That's a shot from the movie "The Edge", great flick!

Brian Lyttle also has a small cameo role in it.
 
He was just an extra. He was the guy in the slicker and fur hat standing on the dock when the plane comes in, and later, taking up the rear carrying the bags.
 
I've known Brian for quite a few years. I met him at one of Ed Storch's symposiums. He makes a heck of a knife.

Yep, He was the older of the 2 Alaska State Troopers standing on the dock when the helicopter brings Anthony Hopkins back at the end.

I like this shot from Lyttle's website.

EDIT:I see TAH already posted it!!

In a round-about way, Brian Lyttle is responsible for my Buck 110 addiction. I wanted something close to his "The Edge" knife, but on my budget, so I got my first Buck 110 in Elk....and an addiction was born! :D

Thanks for sharing it so freely! :thumbup:
 
That movie was one of the reasons Hopkins became my favorite actor. And I've saved a picture of that knife for years. It's also what got me back into Winchesters, too. (The rifle they find at the end of the movie.)

thx - cpr

ps - I miss Bart. :(
 
A colleague and I gave Baldwin a 3-hour tour of a Naval facility just prior to his movie Hunt for Red October. I've never seen someone who was so taken with himself. The Paramount consultant who accompanied him was a retired Naval officer, however, and a true-blue water Navy guy. He was astounding. (Had he been an aviator, I think we would have two guys who thought they were God.) Anyway, Baldwin was the last Hollywood type I want to meet for awhile.
 
Actors were superb
and Bart the bear was magnificient!
That such a folding knife is as mighty in the wilderness as would the legendry Killer-ba.
Overall the movie was nothing short of a triumph; especially so for small unassuming folders versus over the top sawbacks flicks.
A classic for years to come.
 
Well, baldwin and his ilk are happy as pigs in crap now. I never heard of the edge and avoid all movies with baldwin, but that's just me.
