Every time I watch NCIS I want to get a ZT 0301 due to agent Gibbs lol. Anybody else get those feelings XD? Or what other shows/movies have created an emotional attraction/attachment to a knife?

My brother had been wanting a ZT 0301 for the same reason, so I got him one last Christmas. Whenever I'm working or out, I always say "Rule number 9", to which you would then pull your knife out and open it. It refers to Gibb's rule number 9: always have a knife on you. I love NCIS. I really like the kriss-blade balisong in Face/Off, you know with John Travolta. I don't know where to find one, but I would love to own one.
 
Does he like the ZT 0301? It is pretty heavy haha XD

I can't say that I have an attachment to a knife because I saw it in a movie/show, although it is great when I see a knife that I know. The most recent was last night while watching the premier to "billion dollar wreck". The diver had a yellow pacific salt attached to his suit while making the plunge down to 270ft.
 
He loves it, and to be honest we are both into the 'overbuilt tactical folder' fad. It looks cool, and is built solid. The stripes on the blade, in addition to being Gibb's knife, is what makes it a keeper. The pocket clip sucks, and it is really heavy for the blade length, but that doesn't stop him from carrying it almost everyday.

I think their are so many good knives, that it is the "2nd type of cool" that makes our choice. It is a very heavy for a knife, but 2 ounces more (compared to zt 0560 or CS Recon 1 etc) lets be real isn't that much in the grand scheme of things XD
 
Thanks. In full disclosure I have to give credit to another forum member whose name I forget that posted something similar several years ago and that's where I got the idea. I really like NCIS but my dad is a huge fan so I went a little crazy and this was his Christmas present this year. He really digged it so it was totally worth it. Now I just wish I had one for myself :)
 
When I was a kid, watching the old Johnny Weissmuller Tarzan movies started my obsession with big fixed blade and carrying one all the time that is probably responsible for my love of knives today. I always observe rule #9 also.
 
Every time I see a knife in a movie or show I wonder who made it. In the series Sleepy Hollow Crane cut a piece of fruit with what looked like a trapper but could not tell. In Longmire a man had a small fixed blade that you could see for maybe 2 seconds but I spent an hour trying to find who made it.

There should me a movie knife data base. I think it would increase knife sales.

I love when GibbS cuts his steak with it. After he cooks it in his fireplace. Gets me every time.
 
I have never seen the show, but am very fond of the 0301.
I was catching up on vikings the other day thinking "I should get another tomahawk".
