The true identity of the H4 knife!

Michael-Myers.net General Discussion

Forever we’ve assumed that the Halloween 4 knife is a Dexter. I’m not even sure why, but RanshiieKrueger84 recently brought it to our attention that we all may be incorrect. I was able to get some blu ray screenshots of the Halloween 4 knife when Michael grabs it and I made a successful identification. I was waiting until I purchased one to post, so without further adieu- the real Halloween IV knife is a

Here are 2 photos of my new knife, as well as the matching ID I made :slight_smile:

It’s glorious! plus that’s the first knife I’ve seen with the Ace of Spades, what size did you end up getting as well?

Hell of a find! Yeah I’m curious of the measurements as well.

Jeez, you’re right! Great detective work there!

Dang, great job, that really is some clever detective work right there!

Same here. They’re very rare, I think I lucked out on this one. I found it on eBay while I was in hobby lobby :laughing: I was sitting through vintage knife listings and I clicked this one, not even because I thought it was the H4 knife, but because the spade rivet caught my eye. It wasn’t until I scrolled to the stamp photo that I recognized the “SO” in the logo as being from a screenshot. Then I compared, found the spade stamp on the blade in screenshots and voila! This guy got my money :laughing: :laughing:

Sure, guys! It’s a 10 1/4 blade. Enough shots convinced me I saw a 10 that I went with this one.



Thank you both very much!!

Excellent! That little spade logo seems definitive to me, awesome!

Random thought, probably nothing: where did this German knife come from? Were these distributed in the US? Reminds me of the Brute mask in H5. Where did that come from? Was there someone from Europe on both sets that possibly contributed these props?

I’m not sure, honestly. We still have German/Japanese/Chinese knife brands being sold in the US so it’s likely that’s where it was picked up.

As for the brute mask, per Don it was at a US costume shop who imported costumes and such/sold through catalogs in the US.

Thought you should know, there’s a shot at the very end where Myers lets his grip go on the knife. You can see the spade rivet on the handle! Couldn’t get a good enough screen shot to show you, but you definitely have the correct knife. Very nice find!

sorry to revive this old topic but I was curious how wide the blade is at the thickest point near the handle, I was guessing 2 inches but was curious

I will measure when I get home and let ya know! I’d say it’s closer to 1.5 inches going off memory. Edit: I was wrong, just measured and it’s exactly 2”! You were right on the money.
