Re: Movie Switchblades
Could be but the knife in Greed looks a lot bigger than that model. In the same scene, Marcus throws the knife at McTeague. You can see the thing more clearly and it is a hand full.JimBrown257 wrote:Is that a Schrade Cut Co.?

Just now watching 1997's Hoodlum. Some pushbuttons make their appearance midway through movie.
Re: Movie Switchblades
Steve McQueen has flashed a lever in at least two episodes of Wanted: Dead or Alive.
Once on a leather strap another slicing an apple.

Caught this tonight on HULU. Of course the old Frenchman is a bad guy and his goon hands him what looks like a 7 or 8 inch stiletto,too small to be a nine.

Re: Movie Switchblades
An old clip of Peter Lorre on the Jack Benny Show. Jack has a splinter in his finger and Peter snaps open his stiletto to help out.
Here is the YouTube video if anyone is interested- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AghBcsjTWok

Re: Movie Switchblades
The clip point lever lock he used in "M" would have been a better choice for splinter removal. Still, Peter shows familiarity with both picklocks and leverlocks as every good villain should....
Re: Movie Switchblades

Re: Movie Switchblades
Saw that Last ship episode,snapped in and out.
It looked to be a double edged and partially serrated blade,definetly got results!

Re: Movie Switchblades
I love how the 1950s Italian stiletto has been in westerns. I guess it's just so cool that it even looks in place before its time.
Re: Movie Switchblades
Yeah James Coburn stuck one in a guy in the Magnificent Seven. A Frosolone would have been a better choice in this situation but it shows you ole James was very familiar with this knife.Panzerfaust wrote:I love how the 1950s Italian stiletto has been in westerns.
