Knives from movies, games and books, etc.

You wouldn't mind if I borrowed a little of your scotch tape wouldja?

True, true, the fight scene in the haybarn he does use the bad guys' Smatchet to stab him in the foot.
Also, Billy Zane had some sort of dagger, I think it may have been a Gerber MkII.

Billy Zanes knife was an Al Mar Shadow. There is at least one scene where it can be seen on his waist. The "wasp" shape of the handle and the silver Al Mar medallion are clearly visible and very distinct. He had a different sheath from the one pictured below.

I remember being intrigued by the knife when I first saw the movie back in 1994, but I had no idea what it was. That was before the internet (or about 8 years before I had internet anyways). :)

Excellent!
 
I'll bet a lot of fans of "Scarface" never noticed the knife in this famous scene. There is an open Rizzuto swing guard switchblade sitting on Tony's desk. I must have seen the movie a dozen times (not a rabid fan, it was just on tv and there was nothing else interesting on), and the last time I saw it I just happened to notice the knife. It's visible closer up from another angle in the same scene (when he leans in to bury his face), but just for a second.

My guess is that Tony used the knife to cut open the bag of coke, but that moment didn't end up in the movie.

But look at the lock, I actually don't think it's manix, but I can't remember of any other spyderco this size and this lock one.
Can't see the lock, but you can see the back lock pivot pin clearly, also clearly seen is the indentation for the pocket clip install around the blade pivot, and the end of the pocket clip protruding from his fingers. Handle shape is also a perfect match for the Endura, doesn't look at all like a Manix, and proportions are more Endura than Delica.

You are absolutely right. For some reason I thought there was Axis lock. I can see it more clearly. If we consider its height, then it's endura 4.
 
Some of the more memorable ones are the Cold Steel Large Espada in The Expendables, the Busse Team Gemini used by Daryl in The Walking Dead, the Buck 120 in the Scream series, the Sebenza 21 in Collateral, and the Spyderco Harpy used by Hannibal Lecter. The Buck 110 and classic 11" Italian stiletto are used in too many to count.
I think the large Espada is also a favorite of Tuco Salamanca in Breaking Bad
