The Vesuvius came first, and was the introduction of the Compression lock. There were some problems with the lock, so the knife was changed to a back lock and the name was changed to the Centofante 3.

I and a fellow otaku were having a conversation and it came out that I think it looks most like the Centofante 3,he thinks that it might be more of Bradley M4. Border line agreement: We cant say what it exactly is cause its animated and maybe the anime artist that drew it made up his own simmular design. But taking the fact the character Izaya is a information broker and very wealthy one id say Bradley now as well. But its my opinion and I can change it anytime, so go watch the entire series... And decide for your selves.

Actually I didn't think he had much money which is why a lower cost knife like the centofante 3 was chosen- otherwise I'd expect him to be carrying a microtech or something exotic.

Oh but he did,if you would have watched carefully you would have seen it :D but a lower cost for a 'throw away' would be a good explanation.

So, I'm watching the old mid-90's show American Gothic, and in one episode, the villain of the week pulls out a SE Renegade.... to cut some tubing while working on a fridge. Nice to see an unusual model and not one of the usual movie Spydies like a Police or Delica.

Has anyone mention Chill Factor with Cuba Gooding Jr and Skeet Ulrich? The bad guy uses a Spyderco hawkbill to dig some killer chemical out of a vail to kill Cuba and Skeet. :eek: Lucky for them it was fake chemical. Hope I didn't give anything away there. :D

I was recently watching a collection of the TV Show "Forensic Files" and in the episode "Pinned by the Evidence" a full serrated Spyderco Endura was shown in this case, when in a conflict between 2 man ended while one used the Endura in SD! "And unfortunately it took one stab only to severe the aorta artery in the chest of the opponent who got killed."

The knife is shown repeatedly in the show and the outcome of the episode was quite unexpected!!!

I saw this on tv recently and even noticed the Spyderco, but I can't for the life of me remember what the show was. Considering its travel channel, its very likely Bizarre Foods (only show I watch regularly on that channel).

I watched Food Wars on I believe the Travel Channel for the first time, and the hostess was eating BBQ in Texas and said something to the effect of "I needed my own BBQ knife so I got one" and she pulled out a black g-10 military pe that I think she borrowed from a worker or customer for the show because the clip looked pretty worn.

Nice catch!

I love when that happens on cop dramas... because, as we all know, the injuries caused by a knife attack ALWAYS point to a small number of production knives due to the fact that the physical dimensions, angle of grind, and composition of a knife are NEVER used twice or modified after manufacture... you know, like by some jackass sharpening the blade or something :p . Also, pointing a blue flashlight at sperm gives you the address and social security number of the victim/killer/witness that you need to identify/apprehend/interview and any recovered bullet can tell you the make, model, and serial number of the gun that fired it. Oh, and DNA testing is an instantaneous process. :D
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.
