I saw the movie at a drive in with my wife last week. No reflection on the movie, but i was violently awakened at least one time by my wife saying, " that was a Buck knife, I saw a Buck knife!!!" By the time my eyes adjusted the scene had changed so I could not verify the accuracy. She does know her knives though so you never know.

I just got back from seeing the flick. A really good movie with a fair bit of incidental knife content - all Buck as far as I could tell. In a movie with its share of harsh content, nice to see a knife used over and over again as a tool, never a weapon. That's got to help public perception of us knife knuts! But what the heck was Pacino thinking, using his pocketknife as a screwdriver!?

Ok, now you have my curiosity up. I have to see the movie again, this time with my eyes open!
mnblade:
I also winced every time Pacino used the blade as a screwdriver. He did that a couple times in the movie (out of maybe a half dozen or so times he used the knife) and the screwing never broke the tip!
At this point, I have to confess, one of the reasons I went to see the movie in the first place is because I had a feeling there would be knife content (not necessarily as a weapon). A lot of the suspense or intrigue movies are good places to spot familiar knives.

Joe,
It's kinda ironic that you fell asleep watching a movie call "Insomnia!"

Exposure - Frontiersman
Scream - General

Kill Bill also features a Buck knife, 112 I believe.
FYI,
The new Punisher movie features Strider Knives prominently in his arsenal.

On Phantasm the character Mike uses a Special or General.
