Traditional slipjoints in movies?

I think the knife in Urban Cowboy was a Khyber,not sure I spelled it right.
Kabar imported them in the 80s. If memory serves me right that knife came in 3 sizes. They also made some lockbacks that were similar to the Buck 110 in style and also came in different sizes. A sporting goods store where I grew up carried the whole Kabar line.
They had a seperate case with the Khybers in .
 
In Kingdom of the Spiders a farmer is whittling with a traditional.

Also in Curse of the Swamp Creature a guy is also whittling.

I notice knives in movies pretty quick. Not always which model, just that theres a knife used.
 
I’ll name one movie that comes to mind.
In Ace Ventura When Nature Calls, one of the guys carving the poison darts was using a traditional folder. The movie showed him using what appeared to be a sheepsfoot blade with a patina.
