Hey guys, can you tell me if I’m right on this one? I believe that I found what knife was used in H2, just with a modified hilt/handle! If not, then it has to be based off of this knife. Here’s the link;
Well, thats where I’m thinking that the handle was changed by the crew of the film. I was comparing the blade of the movie prop and this thing, and I can’t find a single difference! Even the plate between the handle and blade is exact. It’s just the completely wrong handle. But if I’m in costume and I hold the handle, it would be out of sight.
Ya the blade seems to be exact as for the handle is the only thing that would have to be changed. Here is the screen used knife and handle shape. The rivets are different too its more like the original butcher knife.
James (jc_70) make THE BEST RZ H2 Bowie replica, period! But he is WAAAAY too backed up to ship any out right now. I’m gonna go ahead and order this one. If I can, I’ll make a correct handle, I’m pretty crafy, lol.
Nice find I’m glad my info about the H1 knife sparked you to track this one down. I’ve never seen one with the original handle. I also got a kick out of seeing both of my screen used H2 knives show up in this post. The first 2 pictures are the rubber knife that was used when the actors are close and the last picture is the metal one.
Yeah man, I got my Victorinox 12’ in the mail today and I’m going to get started on the dulling and weathering tomorrow. Do you know, off hand, what material the H2 movie knife’s handle was made out of? I placed my order at Atlanta Cutlery and I need to know what kind of wood to get as I’m going to try to make my own screen-accurate handle.
thats the nail on the head! nice find brother!.. i mean, yes … I would LOVE James Carter to make me one also… but he is very busy as he has told me also-
his may have been the 100% accurate replica model… but this one you have found is actually real… and is at about a 98% replica factor- beggars can’t be choosers-
besides- the hand is around the only different part of the knife anyway. one wouldn’t know otherwise.
this is a great find by you for those really wanting to finalize, a next to 100% accurate look to a RZH2 get up-
