My wife and I love watching 80s horror movies. Some are really good and some are really bad but we enjoy both kinds.
Last week we watched a movie called Sorority house massacre. The main murder weapon that is featured prominently throughout the movie is a large fixed blade knife that to me looks like a Buck 120 - but it has a stag type handle. The movie is free to watch if anyone has the TUBI app. I looked for pictures online but there is only one, but I did find this movie review that does show a few shots of the knife, so here is the link for anyone intersted in investing 10 minutes to verify the identity of the knife.


there is one scene in the movie that I wish I could get a screen shot of. when the murderer breaks out of the mental institution, he immediately goes to a hardware store where he smashes a knife display to steal the same type of knife he used to kill his family 10 years ago. the knives in the knife display all had stag handles like the knife he steals which I think looks like a Buck 120, but I didn't get a good look at the other knives to see if they all looked like other Buck models.

anyways, if anyone can verify what the knife is, let me know.

Thanks!
 
obviously a murderer with fine taste.
the star quality of buck knives is obvious.
i guess movie prop departments
found that buck knives gleam the best
over all other brands
when filmed under every sorta lighting
conditions throwned at it.

Must be a re handle. That pommel does not look like it came from Buck.

Mine was re handled too, but has the Buck pommel.

The movie Grizzly Maze had a Buck 119 special used to kill the monster bear in the final showdown scene. I’ll try posting a picture in a follow up.
