Re: Movie Switch's
Not a big fan but Steven Seagal uses a couple high-end switches in his movies. One I think is when he is a cook on a ship and another is possibly the one where he is in Alaska.
But the stills are cool of the stiletto from the Beast movie.
Keep up the great work,we love it.

Re: Movie Switch's
Thats right- Under Seige, the knife he drives all the way into Tommy Lee Jones' head is a switch I think at the end. After poking his eye out. I think he even tops it off by slamming his head into a computer monitor or something after the knife is to the hilt in TLJ's head which causes even more damage to him from the electricity.
Steven Segal makes sure a guy is f---ked up seriously doesn't he?

There is a scene in the Punisher where he runs the blade up through the guy's lower jaw and you can see the blade in his mouth. Ahh the things Hollywood comes up with
Re: Movie Switch's
BTB,
I found the jack the ripper video and I was way off! It turns out it was an old HBO series The Hitchhiker, episode "man of her dreams" It was 20 - 30 years ago so I was real foggy about the details, but the stiletto (not a kriss I guess) is @ 16:00 into this. I wish I could find it on youtube because this site makes you sit through commercials

Like that one movie where Michael Cera plays an awkward teenager? Or that one where Jean Claude Van Dam does kickboxing?...
I'm laughing at Segal's generic movie plots, not you!

I didn't know that, very interesting. Turns out Class of 1984 was one of the first movies Michael J Fox was in before he got famous. There are a few switchblades in it, but all of them are hard to get a good shot of. The last three pics are all from the same scene and are supposed to be the same knife...heviarti wrote:Class of 1999 is supposed to be a sequel to Class of 1984, which I haven't seen. From the covers i've found it looks like there might be one in there. fits the stereotype.

Here are a couple more movies that had Rizzuto clones in them. Hairspray...
and Anchorman...
I found it online, very cool. I didn't realize they mentioned Rizzutos in that book, thanks! BTW I'm going to try and get a better quality version of the Outsiders. In the version I have the knives in the beginning are too pixelated to tell what kind they are.Jeff_75 wrote:BTB if you havn't found pg. 100 in the Switchblades of Italy book I'll take a pic of the page in mine and type what it says, it's not very long.

Re: Movie Switch's
I am impressed with all the stills. Hell I can't operate a remote control
This is a little off subject since I can't do stills I can copy and paste
Seems like I posted this before but here it is again. Link Wray- "Switchblade"
I bought this album when it first came out in 1979.(never heard of him before at the time)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8qcQ5yx9O_A
Link Wray was the one that did "Rumble" back in 1958.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1NAq4HyoNe4
Link did a lot of cool old tunes- Slinky,Comanche,Rawhide,Jack The Ripper,The Black Widow and Ace of Spades.

Re: Movie Switch's
Seems like it may have been in Pulp Fiction too.
Speaking of,was there a switchblade in that movie?

Re: Movie Switch's
You would really think there would be, but I honestly don't remember seeing one in Pulp Fiction. I don't think there was one in Desperado either. Somebody please correct me if I'm wrong though. I do remember a scene with throwing knives in Desperado.

Re: Movie Switch's
The first Death Wish has alot...........
Re: Movie Switch's
I don't remember a switch in Pulp either. Alot of cool guns though.
Too bad I've never seen one on The Sopranos Theres got to be something I'm missing there as I've seen about every episode.
It's funny because a switchblade always seems to be what opens a bundle of cocaine in movies and I can't remember a single movie by name where that has happened.
I remember now "The Kingdom" has one. I thought it was a newer Benchmade or M-tech or something. Near the end it serves as a terrorist removal tool where Jennifer Garner saves Jason Bateman.
Also I remember Miami Vice with one or 2 and found this post from 03' looking.

Re: Movie Switch's
Yeah,in Death Wish III the gang leader gave a guy a tracheotomy with a clip-blade switch.
Seems like it had brass bolsters with flat guards
He said: "This is the stickerette and you are the stickee"
Trivia- The head gang leader was Ritchie Cunnigham's older brother Chuck and was only in about three episodes.
He also played one bad dude in Lonesome Dove.
