AVP split blade knife pics?

[nutria_man]

In AVP the Predator used a long thin split fixed blade to cut up the alien. I think in some fight with the critter it got thrown to the ground.

Any idea who made that .. or any pictures of what it looks like?

I am not talking about the daggers in his arm thingy.. I mean he had a bowie type knife he carried.

Maybe strange question... but it struck me as nice looking design.. I just can't remember it exactly.
Thanks

I had NO idea what you were talking about, so I did a Google search. Apparently this is an arcade game turned into B movie? Anyway, here's a page with the weapons:

This kind of fantasy knife is reserved for designers like Kit Rae, and produced by studio prop guys. Doubtful if any traditional makers were on board.

Good luck!

Thanks for the links. The people who design those props have amazing skill.. so sometimes good to 'steal' some ideas on curves and features.
Thanks again!
