127 hours :D

After I finished that movie I told myself that I NEED a really good knife, just in case I need to cut my own arm off. That was when I started browsing around for a good knife and ended up ordering the BK2 and a tom brown tracker.
 
i got into knives after seeing the movie The Hunted. almost ordered a custom made WSK made by Tim Horan. later found that i had no use for such a knife and got into folders :-)
 
Always contact your family members or close friends where you heading after watching 127 hours (Ain't ready to take my hand off)
Got very interested in F.M.A after watching the Hunted.
Found out that serrations on Rambo Bowie has very little use (Rambo series, sans Rambo 3 and onwards)
The Expendables is probably one hella movie that stirred up everything; from the deployment of CS Espada XL to Darryl Ralph's art of puncturing basketball it's filled with fantastic action-packed scenes.

Nope can't say it affected my knife habit at all. If I were take away something away from the movie other then the idea of telling someone where you're going is that you should be able to access a knife with either hand.

Luckily, I learned not to waste my time carrying junk around with me a few decades before that incident.
 
127 Hours taught me that behaving like a complete and total idiot can result in a movie deal in which your character is portrayed as a hero.

Though the Friday the 13th movies do seem like solid ads for machetes. :D
 
I actually can not recall being impressed by a knife in a movie.
Probably the LOR was the only exception thanks to an interesting handle design - for both sords and a knife. Otherwise - nothing comes to mind.
It is probably because I do prefer handling the knife rather than looking at it.
 
I read Patient Zero a few months ago. I didn't care for the book in general, but the protagonist slobbered all over the RRF knife he carried for awhile, and I believe this planted the seeds for a knife obsession of my own that has recently manifested itself. :D

Edit: Reawakened may be more accurate. I too had pointy thing fascination as a kid, now that I think about it.
 
I got addicted to knives when my friend at work mentioned getting a new Kershaw... Got me a Kershaw Blur as my first actual knife and it's been downhill ever since lol
 
I think it was The Sound Of Music that got me hooked on knives.

Julie Andrews has strange powers over men.
