I'm gonna be in pictures!!! Or at least one of my knives will be.

I sold a 1950's Camillus bone handled jack on eBay. Got an email form the buyer - said he is the "prop master" for a TV series filming in the British Isles. He wanted a preiod-correct jack knife for filming scenes where a boy would be whittling, for as show set in the mid 1950's.

I suggested also a WM RODGERS Sheffield single-blade jack and he bought that one as well, saying that the film would want several options.

Wish I had asked him the name of the show, but maybe we shall eventually see....

That’s awesome! I hope you get to see the film or at least the clip with your knife in it.

If so, let us see it too.

Cool stuff, good for you!

Very cool.

I often look at what knives and cameras an actor would use in a period film. I also
sometimes look at what goofs were made in a film production. You would be
surprised how alert and specific people can be when finding errors in film
scenes.

I saw an episode of a Canadian Broadcasting Corporation TV series Murdoch Mysteries, which is set in the early 1900s -1903 or thereabouts - where one of the characters deployed a Buck 110!
They missed this one!
