Blade/ Blade 2 (Wesley Snipes) Blade With Mechanical Spring-Load Knives In Handle
When one remembers the cult Vampire classic “Blade” (1998) , we think of Wesley Snipes as the title hero Blade, slinking through the world, half-human, half vampire, as he protects us morals from the evil of the blood-suckers. And one of the most iconic images is his “Daywalker Blade” that he carries slung to his back ready to grab for battle at split-second notice. In the film, the blade is “created” by his mentor and weapon maker, Whistler (Kris Kristofferson), with a built-in deadly secret. If held by anyone but the Daywalker, small razor-sharp knives shoot out from the handle obliterating the poor-souls hand and fingers. This is seen to great gory effect when Curtis (Tim Guinee) becomes one of the unlucky ones to try and take the blade away in the original “Blade”. And in the sequel, “Blade 2” (2002), Reinhardt (Ron Perlman) tries to outsmart the Daywalker Blade, only to be cut in half by it! This is one of Wesley Snipes’ actual hero screen used Daywalker Blades complete with the trick handle knives that spring out to do their horrific damage. A special ring-trigger below the hilt keeps the knives inside the handle until ready for action. Quite rare! Oh, and handle with care! Blade and handle are approx. 35" long. Four spring-loaded knives in the handle are approx. 4" long. Includes Letter of Provenience. Additional postage may apply.
