Reese's knife - Person of Interest

[tjswarbrick]

Did anybody watch Reese (Jim Caviezel) disarm the bomb with a folding knife last night?
You usually just get a quick "flash" of blade - but I could clearly make out the black coating, tanto tip, partial serrations, ramped thumb stud and trac-tec inserts.
Looked like a Tanto Blur.
With those expensive suits, I would think he'd go for a ZT or Hinderer. But then, he probably views a knife as a tool and expects to lose or break them occasionally.
Nice choice.

Prop guys don't know knives nor do most viewers. In a way that is nice as it makes it more fun when you spot a quality knife on a show.

That was the amazing thing - it looks like somebody on the show actually thought about it.
I'm not a tanto fan, but considering the situations he gets himself into on this show, and the way he improvises solutions from the articles available to him, it seemed a very thoughtful selection.
