HalloweeN 1978 knife revelation/observation. Anyone else?!

I know! I messaged him and I’m REAALLY hoping he responds. Love this knife and would love more pics of it! I 100% believe he has the exact same make/model knife as used in these scenes.

It was always a toss up between a Lamson or Dexter knife. However, I would throw the Clyde into the mix as a possible contender. From what I can see, the Clyde is looking like a winner IMO.

Now that I’m thinking so much about it, I’m struggling to find screen caps of the knife that don’t resemble the Clyde handle. At almost any point that I pause the movie, the knife appears to have the same color handle as shown in the pictures posted. Do you have any screenshots where the knife resembles the Dexter or Lamson? I may just be overlooking it, who knows.

Here’s some pics of mine

This is really quite interesting, if this were true the ‘Little Mikey Knife’ is really just a trick of perception and lighting in the opening, makes sense as well, seeing as this was a very low budget film so they would most likely re-use the same props.

Amazing knife! You are one lucky SOB.

This is also a valid reason for the re use of the knife. I fully believe that this is the same knife.

If you don’t mind, what are the measurements of your knife?

A lot of the vintage Sabatier knives have a VERY similar handle to the H1 knife as well.
It sucks that all these old knives are so sought-after, being such high-quality.

You’ve got a good eye! Never would’ve thought to compare the two!

Wow. You just might be onto something. Zac.

Check out this Sabatier.

Thank you very much.

Comparison pic to a Dexter, both 12" blades, but as you can see, the Dexter is just a hair shorter.

Which one is the bottom one again??

If you look and the size and placement of the rivets on the knife at the bottom (Clyde?) they are almost spot on with the knfie used in H1. Where as the knife on top (Dexter?) the rivets look smaller and not in the same place.

It would be amazing that, after all these years, we finally got a positive ID on the knife used in H1!

If you also look the blades on both the knives, you will notice that again, the bottom knife (Clyde?) is straight/flush to the end of the blade. Where as the top knife (Dexter?) has a little bit that that hangs down.
