Very nice work!
Both look authentic.
How about a photo of the rifle?
What barrel and lock?
Another Great movie!
When my older brother passed away many years ago I found this knife in his possessions. Until then I never carried a knife but now I have this little one in my pocket.
When I fly I always have to remember to leave it at home. Many years ago I had TSA confiscate a souvenir nail clipper that I cherished.

It took six cows to make that scabbard!
In my misspent youth, I shopped and shopped for a Cold Steel Trailmaster I had seen in Jackson, WY. Eventually, on another vacation, I went into that same knife shop, the price was the same and I bought it.
It is a very nice knife but heavy and long for carry on the belt.
On another vacation, we were sitting around the campfire in the Cascade mountains and I was pulling the grandkids' chains about bears and cougars and such. I went into the camper and put on that knife. Went back out and sat down by the fire where I had been and pulled it out to test the edge with my thumb.
The oldest went stomping into the weeds and came back with a largish stick.
Before the night was out, everyone was dragging a spear around the camp!
True story...my wife and I laugh about it all these years later.
I pity the idiot varmint that would have been stupid enough to wander through our camp.
They would have wound up full of holes and on a spit.

My truck is equipped at all times with extra knives, a manchette (I love manchettes), a hatchet, a Soviet Spetznaz shovel, and a SOG Tactical Tomahawk. I do not really understand the "Tactical" part unless it is related to the edge geometry.
The hawk is really not too good for chopping wood. It is too knife-like and fails to chip like the hatchet. Perhaps that is where the "tactical" part of the description comes from?
The original tomahawk was designed to be a survival tool as well as a weapon.
Just because I believe one can't be too prepared, I have a Cold Steel Boar Spear resting next to the back door of the house. My Chief Financial Officer refuses to let it stay by the front door so I'll just have to grab it on the way to bugging out.

As an aside, the hickory haft is fairly large and is really too heavy for extended use unless one has good upper body strength.
I like it, though!

I forgot to add, the knife is from Bobcat Knives.
My wife gave it to me as part of my retirement.
What a Sweetie!

Nice looking knife. Just one question , where is the button you push to make the blade open??
Haha, it’s that big hole you see right there.
