Wondering what kind of knife Danny Glover uses in Switchback, anyone know?
 
I rather liked that knife too, but there was no accreditation in the titles for the knifemaker.

So I had Ernest Mayer of Black Cloud Knives make me a Sharktooth, a double-edged drop point, similar in concept, with what I percieved to be the attributes of the Switchback knife: thin, light, sharp, and about 6.5" in length. Ernie ground the knife out of 5/32 A-2, with thin edges, and it is a tactical razor.
 
Snoopy, I posed that question a while ago and never got an answer, though I have traded recently for a knife with a blade shape similar, although it's not got the swedge grind on top, it's a nice wide thin edge knife, looky here--

Dan Margagni made this knife, forged with a visible hamon along the edge, forgive the bad scanning, just laid the knife on a flat bed scanner to get this image so some of the shiny parts are from the light in the scanner. Nice knife, comfortable handle. Dan makes very few knives so I feel fortunate to have gotten this one.
