Style Compass
In the movie First Blood (part 1) we get to see the knife in action. Rambo uses the accessories in the handle to sew up a wound and find his way (with the compass) -- he even kills a deer with the knife (tied to a shaft to make a spear). After all this great exposure, who wouldn't want one?
The Three Rambo Style Hunting Knives
After three movies, there are actually three different hunting knives that could properly be called Rambo style. The first movie features a stainless steel, 9 inch blade (14 inch overall), full guard, saw-back knife with a corded, hollow handle (for all the goodies). Not really shown in the movie (and a bit of Rambo knife trivia) is the Phillips and flat-headed screwdriver blades -- one on each end of the blade guard.
The second movie (Rambo, First Blood part 2) used a very similar knife with a blackened carbon steel blade. The blade is another inch longer than the first (at 10 inches sharpened), making this Rambo style knife 15 2/8 inch overall.
The last movie in the series features a much more radical design. This Rambo style hunting knife leaves off the hollow handle with the survival stuff and replaces the corded grip with solid wood. Gone too are the screwdriver points on the guard. The blade is stainless steel, thicker and wider than before, with a blood channel. The saw back is toned down. Of course, the trend for a longer blade continues with a now 13 inch blade (18 inches overall).
Utility
So, are these Rambo style hunting knives actually usable? Yes, mostly. The one feature that seems less than choice is the saw back. The sharp edged teeth aren't really practical for cutting much of anything. A knife isn't a saw. The proper way to cut a small branch with a knife is to chop, or, cut out chunks of wood by placing the knife edge against the branch and hitting the backside with a rock, driving it in. None of these are robust enough for that little job.
Pricing
Officially licensed Rambo Style hunting knives are costly. For fans, this isn't a problem. For anyone interested in simply a functional hunting/survival knife, it would be wise to shop around based on features instead of movie credentials.
Right from my childhood, I loved knives. I roamed in jungles and had been on many wild ventures. In my opinion, hunting knife is the best companion when you are on any wild adventure trip. As there are many types of hunting knives available, the key is in selecting the right kind of knife. You are invited to visit http://www.huntingknivesreviews.net to learn more about hunting knives.
Which book should I use??
I have a project in Honors English, not due for a month or so. The idea is fairly simple-- Write a prologue (for a book read) in the same style as Shakespeare used in the beginning of Romeo and Juliet. This is sonnet form, and it is pretty much a summary of the story, and gives away the plot and ending. I'm not sure which book would be best. I have in mind Twilight, A Great and Terrible Beauty, Wicked, The Golden Compass....Any good ideas? I have a fairly high reading level, if that helps. Thank you!
PS Please don't suggest a book just because you think it is a good story. (I am an avid fan of Twilight, and Golden Compass, but not sure if they would fit) I would love to listen to your suggestions for pleasure reading, but right now I need English project books.
Thanks so so much!
It seems like you can use any book that you really like--it doesn't seem to matter the style or the reading level. Try the GOLDEN COMPASS since you like it--you should do better with this since you admire the book.
