377 – LARGE FOLDING KNIFE – a great big 7" wavy blade. limited availability – [$6.74]

377 – LARGE FOLDER – same as above, but a straight blade. limited availability – [$6.74]

    397 – ARKANSAS TOOTHPICK – a very menacing 12" blade. – [$14.74]

    379 – "SWITCHBLADE" – real switchblade knives are illegal in the United States. The best we can do is to take the novelty comb, remove the plastic and add a weak 4" aluminum blade. They don’t last long, so we only offer them for sale only, not rent. (If you are doing Twelve Angry Men, I'm sorry to tell you that these are too fragile to stick into a table top ... or balsa wood ... or even into Styrofoam.)  The only plus side here is that they look and operate just like the real thing.

    380 – GRAVITY KNIFE – Also called a "flick knife", it is not spring loaded. Instead, a button on the edge of the handle releases the blade, which can then drop down or pop out with the flick of the wrist (hence the nickname). This kind of knife must not be dropped, for the release button can be easily damaged. It is not a switchblade, but in California we can't get any more of them, and we only have a few left. Reserve it early. – [$12.21]

381 – BUTTERFLY KNIFE – with a little practice, opens flashily with one hand [although it can rap your knuckles]. Also limited availability because of restrictions in California. – [$7.00]

    Y77 - BARBER’S STROP - rhymes with "hope", yes this is the leather strap to hone the straight razor. [$6.00]

    371- ROSALINE - trim "woman’s" dagger; 6" blade, 10" overall. This one works rather well for a "boot" dagger. – [$9.05]

    365 - PUNCH/STRAIGHT COMBO KNIFE – this is a folding knife that only folds half-way, turning from a standard utility knife to a punching dagger –  3" blade.  [$2.53]

370 – BOOT DAGGER - (no image available, because there is really no such animal) blade length varies, but usually about 3". Everyone believes that a boot dagger is going to be a really cool addition to a show, but boot daggers are very small (so they won't rub against the ankle) and when held by actors are nearly invisible to the audience (it looks like the character is just pointing angrily.) -

    Helpful hint: If you have been told that it is absolutely critical to the show to have a boot dagger, do two things before ordering. 1) go to the costumer and find out what the maximum overall knife length can be. In other words, how much space do you have to house the knife. Then 2) take a ruler onstage and show the director what different blade lengths look like when stuck out of someone's hand. This way you'll find out the minimum blade length the director can be happy with. Somewhere between this minimum blade length and maximum overall length is the info you need to place the order. We'll try to put something together that falls within your request.
