What movie had an actor calling his knife "Big John?" Bonus points for identifying the knife....
There isn’t any symbolism. The sea is the sea. The old man is an old man. The boy is a boy and the fish is a fish. The shark are all sharks no better and no worse. All the symbolism that people say is ****.

LOL. Funny thread.
What ever Spyderco I have in my pocket at the given time is called "Mr. Spydie".
When something needs cut I say, "well I think Mr. Spydie can handle that".
So I guess they are all called "Mr. Spydie". :D

Upon a time I named my knives, then I accumulated too many to come up with good names :p Ended up getting rid of the named ones, and just never named another one.
Was kinda fun though, for a time

I have taken to referring to my new CF Caly 3 as "Excalibur".Same name I gave my Lacrosse stick.While neither may be nesessarily mythical or magical,I tried many before them,and they're both just about perfect. :D
Qualifier:While in someone elses hands my stick could work magic,in mine however,it's shots are very mortal and sometimes lucky.

Not really "names" for my knives, but I think of my full sized Manix as "The Beast" and my Ocelot as "Novi's Knife" -- after my cat, Novi, on account of the paw prints.
