Rambo IV props

[bladefans]

I can't believe this thread hadn't happened sooner, unless I didn't notice. Anyway I have been having some trouble identifying some of the props such as his bow and the various guns. Obviously his knife is one of the coolest props from this movie and I was wondering if anyone has found any versions other than the official one i.e. any knives like this that were made before the movie so people would have a cheaper alternative. Thanks!

The bow was custom made for the film and was available for a limited time iirc.

As far as the knives go, Jimmy Lile designed the Franchises first two knives, with Gil Hibben doing the last two movies.

I'm sure Taiwan has already started doing the cheap knock offs of the current knife.

Oh yeah, I saw that thread. It wasn't addressing any of the props though-just the wardrobe. At least as far as I could tell...

It's my understanding that United Cutlery lost the Rambo license to Master Cutlery (although United Cutlery still makes "Hibben I-IV" knives) and the licensed Rambo IV knife can be purchased for about $150...

Or a Gil Hibben limited edition (of 100 I believe) replica for $1250 that I'm sure is sold out by now...

The Hibben IV is more of what I was looking for when I asked the question. Thanks everyone. Im pretty sure it won't be very available until the DVD release, but that is very exciting news.
