i thought they looked like united cutlery or buck knives. seriously, if you aren't concerned about whether or not it *looks* like jayne's knife, but actually want something as hardcore as jayne, you've gotta check out Swamp Rat knives. Busse makes the best, but Rats are more affordable. Those things have a cult following and i have many, many of them in my safe at home and around the house. my favorite is the Swamp Rat folder that i use as an occasional boot knife.
they're website is a little silly, but i swear to you, i've seen amazing things done with and to those knives. i live with a knife fanatic, (and have become one by proxy), and he swears by Busse and Swamp Rat.
and they're big and scary looking.

Also, you know where i could get one?

very flashy

The knife he had is a bowie style knife. Who made it, I don't know but bowie knifes are a very common hunting knife and you can find them in most stores that sell gear of that nature such as Wal-Mart or Dicks.

Oh, and play Cantr II at www.cantr.net.

Is anyone else getting a bit hot and bothered about this discussion?!!!

Jayne and his knives and guns and muscles and gun metal blue eyes..... *sigh*

You know what they say about men and their knives or guns...........

And all those confrontations about who's got the biggest!!!

Need I say more??!!

Boys and their toys.............

One of my favorite scenes is Jayne licking his blade before going to work on it with the whetstone. I've been known to do just that before sharpening one out of my collection (though I refrain from hawking a loogie on the whetstone), and I just...love that.

Heh.

Yeah, I'm a girl with a knife collection that I occasionally lick. Problem!? *narrows eyes*

Oh, and definitely thanks for the information on Jayne's knives! Very complete and useful info, and it saved me a lot of trouble looking it up myself. It's always good to bump into a fellow enthusiast -- read: obsessive fanatic -- even by proxy. Woot!

You guys...

All so sweet, yet now and again something dowright unsettlin' emerges in the guns, knives and some time ago a girlie* holding forth knowledgably on the subject of punching.

Anyway, all this cutlery talk reminded me of DoA

I'd love to have seen the bit with Jayne winning something. I won't spoiler it, but it was very Jayne. Things not going right / utter frustration / problem solved.

*Yes, I know it's the Internet, and most girls are scary older guys in log cabins full of guns in Montana who are devoted to their Moms. Stayed right by her even after she passed over. Lucky there was a spare rocking chair...

What...you mean like punching with your two first knuckles so you don't break the small bones in your hand? Or punching from the shoulder to get the power of your whole body behind it instead of just swinging wildly and ineffectually?

*innocent grin*

Yes, I know very well how to throw a punch, and no matter my heartless nature, I am a girl. Never "girlie", but a girl.

No man parts, here. Heheh.

I'm not hot and bothered by Jayne, lol.

I went with the following for my costume http://us.st11.yimg.com/store1.yimg.com/I/legendaryarms_1880_2688719

The pic is at an angle so the blade looks bigger than it really is (yall are so bad ) The only real difference I see from the show is the number of pins in the handle (his has 4). The sheath was completely different though and my friend who does leatherwork is making it now. Will post pics when I get it.

The handle scales differ and you get no choice, and mine of course ended up being brown, I am gonna have to paint them.
