This has probably been done. If so call it revisited. What are your favorite knife scenes in the movies? First is the scene in "The Sacketts", where Sam Elliott's charactor throughs an hombre up on the bar. He then procedes to shave the fellows mustache off(nice bowie). Second is the classic scene from "Crocodile Dundee", where he is confronted by the punk. He says That's not a knife, that's a knife! RKBA!

I would have to say, one of my all time favorite scenes would be the knife fight at the end of Under Seige, between Steven Segal and Tommy Lee Jones. I think Segal uses a Gerber MK II. The 2nd would have to be in Predator when Arnold throws the knife into the guy and the wall and says "Stick around".
The Longriders bar scene where David Carradine is fighting with the guy who is married to Belle Star.

My favorite bit is from 'Leon' (called the profesional in the US)
Where the army clad dude pulls a M9 from his concealed sheath an uses it on a matress. The typical Hollywood 'sssswwwing' as it comes from the scabard is cooooool.

The movie: Platoon
The scene: Tom Berringer confronts Charlie Sheen outside of the "happy hut" (actually I don't remember what they called it) and Berringer draws his CS Safekeeper II and puts it into Sheen's face. Berringer gives Sheen a little nick/cut on his cheek, as a threat, as he walks away.
I wanted that knife the second I saw it. What is funny is the fact that it took me over 10 yrs to find it, but, that's another story all together.

James Coburn used a switchblade and an underhand throw to win against the gun in The Magnificent Seven.
There's a knife in a scene from Gone In 60 Secs which was a socom elite, and the film was shot before they were in production. Guess Nick (notorious knifenut) has some friends at MT.
Oh yeah, Chinatown, arguably the best screenplay ever. The knife was an italian style switch wielded by Roman Polanski (notorious pediphile).
My favorite scene is from Hannibal where he says 'well... bowels in or out?' and proceeds to disembowel the italian detective with a spyderco Harpy (or Merlin).

I saw Long Kiss Goodnight with Geena Davis today on video.
One nice scene is when she gets a cut on her stomach, and complains that the blade was only 4 inches.

Jeremiah Johnson, when he and the other fellow is sitting around the camp fire, an indian drops from the tree, he leaps up, grabs his bowie and throws it cleanly into the indian...
I stood up in the theater and actually yelled, a long time ago when I was in the Navy, 1973 I think, but I still remember that pretty well...

I like the scene towards the end of the Untouchables where this guy breaks into Sean Connery's apartment and is sneaking up on him with a knife and Connery turns around and points a gun at him saying something like "Isn't just like an Italian to bring a knife to a gunfight."
I don't know if that was where this now famous line started or not, but regardless, Connery says it with style.

The best knife fight I saw in a movie was in Nevada Smith, in which Steve McQueen, seeking vengeance, confronts Martin Landau, a baddie knife-fighting champion who had skinned Nevada's mother and made a pouch out of her flayed skin. In the scene, McQueen and Landau, as I remember, become entangled amidst a corral fence and some cows. McQueen's arm finally darts up and he stabs Landau in the stomach. He then twists the knife over and over again, while Landau squeals. I miss Steve McQueen.

Good Evening.
It is I, THE GREAT AND POWERFUL VAMPIRE GERBIL!
(Click HERE for maniacal laughter)
My particularly favorite knife scene is taken from the movie, "The Muppets Take Boisnia".
Miss Piggy threatened Kermit with a Cold Steel Trailmaster after she caught him trying to pick up an Albanian Hooker.
Truly a Classic!
Oh, and before that, I really liked Dirty Harry... he got me to scotch tape knives to my calf back when I was 11. Part 2, I giggled maniacally when he stuck the bad guy in the leg with his switchblade.
Off to take voice lessons,

James Caan playing the bad guy in some movie I recently watched on video. I can't remember the other guy, but it was a pretty recent film. Anyway, they are on a plane, and the good guy pulls some sort of throwing knife and nails Caan in the arm or something and Caan says, "I can't believe you just cut me with this cheap mailorder piece of Sh*t!" I about died laughing, while my wife just looked at me with this confused look on her face. I guess she didn't get it.
