The Baddest Mofo To ever hold a Knife!?

I must add another vote to Planterz's selection. Right away when I saw the title of this thread I thought of Jack Burton. Ahh, a great film.
 
now i agree with gringogunsmith, on some not all, i would say steven segall with the credit card knife now that is a fight scene with a knife. best movie line about a knife croc. dundee hands down.
 
I can't believe no one mentioned the obvious.

Planterz's your my HERO. When it comes to the Badest MOFO to ever hold a knife, NO one beats Jack Burton!!!!
 
I do like your idea for the thread, but @#$% movies, this guy is the real thing. Captain Sigurdur "The Iceman" Petursson, a skipper of a trawler (fishing boat) dubbed "Eric the Red" pulled a 660 lb shark out of the water by the tail using only his bare hands, and then proceeded to murder it with a knife.

Anyone into Korean art cinema?

3) Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter... and Spring has a wonderful scene involving a murderer carving letters into a budhist temple with the knife he's killed his lover with to work out the evil in his life with the cops waiting to take him to prison. This is probably the most beautiful scene I've ever seen involving a blade.

6) Address Unknown by the same Korean director has absolutely the most horific and malevolent scenes involving blades I've ever watched.
 
I would also have to say riddick in pitch black. The movie is pretty much about him his knife and him kicking ass with his knife its an awesome movie.:thumbup:

1. Baddest mofos are Aaron Hallam and Beatrix Kiddo.

2. Best fight scenes are from the Hunted.

3. Best utility scenes, either John Rambo or Charles Morse.

4. Best death scene? I guess the final scene of the Hunted.

5. Best overal scene would be Crocodile Dundee, "That's a knife!"

That looks like my list :D

Hey Planterz, what movies are those?
They're all "Big Trouble in Little China" except the one with Matt Damon and Jeff Imada, which was taken from the special features section of "The Bourne Supremacy".
 
Jeremiah Johnson is a great movie.

Read the book about "Liver Eatin" Johnson which that movie is based off of. Nothing better than a 6"4" pissed off mountain man killing off Crow Indians then carving out their livers and eating them for some light reading :)
 
Thanks Jack Fuller for adding some reality to this, I think real people earn a spot in this thread.

You know I though about adding Aaron Hallam in here at first and the fighting in that movie due to it's more realistic approach. But then I thought if anyone decided to put him at the number one spot, wouldn't that mean that they should have rather put L.T. in his place. I mean he taught him, he was older and had never killed a man before, and yet he killed Aaron.

Just food for thought, what do ya think.
 
Well, I'll let others more knowledgeable than myself explain to you the "realism" of The Hunted, but the part that really struck me as wrong was that LT didn't have a knife. A man like that (a combat instructer and former tracker, outin the wilderness) wouldn't leave the house without a knife anymore than he'd leave without wearing pants, or the FBI chick would go to work without a gun. All his detatchment from violence aside, he above all would know the importance of a knife as a tool. Especially with Tom Brown as a technical advisor for the film (TLJ's character is based on Brown, and he designed the Tracker knife, which Benicio Del Toro uses).

Still, after seeing Tommy Lee Jones in The Hunted and Under Siege, I wouldn't pick a fight with him.
 
True, when I said realism, I didn't mean total realism, I just meant, no wires or CGI or anything that makes you go, "yeah looks cool, never happen though".

Yeah and L.T.'s no knife got to me to, which is the reason why you can't put him in the number one spot either.
