....Black Sable from Cold Steel


Anybody see the trailer yet?

Movie

Trailer

Dan
 
I saw the trailer, after seeing the knife though, I got scared and turned away!
 
Actually, the knife or one very close to it appeared in a movie years ago starring tommy lee jones, as a black ops CQC knife intsructor who had a student go off the res (I learned that term from video games) and had to hunt him down and stab him to death. Okay movie, I don't see the soul of the knife, whats it about? Just looks goofy and unweildy to me.
 
Dan, i saw the knife the other week and even went to the cold steel site to double check. The movie looks horrendous. The "high school kids" look older than me, and I'm 27. :rolleyes:

That said, the knife knut in me just kept thinking..."Man, that's a lot of scratch to spend on a knife just to stab some dumb kids:D"

yep, you're new here :)

The film you're thinking of is The Hunted; one of my favorites. The knife in that film is the TOPS Tom Brown Tracker, or an earlier version thereof. It's nothing like the one in the trailer, which has a curved blade but not a thick overbuilt one like the Tracker.
I thought it was a cold steel knife too, but it looks a trifle big. I dunno.
 
Thank you, missin hobo. I am starting to feel old already, too out of date i guess. I thought that without the finger hole, they were pretty similar. If I made the knife in the picture above, i would feel like I was copying the knife from the hunted.
 
i think you are talking about the knife in his signature, not in the movie. that pic shows up in all his posts


here is the Cold Steel one he's talking about:

 
Ah. I saw that too, and was pleased with myself for recognizing it from their catalog. Sorry for the mix-up, and any erronious posts.

i'm a little sarcastic, but it's good natured, i promise. just trying to clear up some confusion.

mostly the "new here" comment was based on the movie reference to The Hunted. someone is always posting here looking for versions of the knife from that movie, and that style is discussed often. i mean nothing negative by it.

have fun, there's lots to learn. and watch out, this place gets expensive :D
 
I just went to an advance screening of the movie and it definitely is a Cold Steel Black Sable.In fact, the knife is shown soo many times in the movie the killer should of named his knife.There's even a scene with a close up of the killer at the bathroom sink washing off all the blood of the blade.

I would too. The thing is way over $300.00!:eek::D And to think Michael Myers could get away with just using a $5 chef's knife:p
