Crocodile Dundee Knife - What Kind is It?

"That's not a knife, now THIS is a knife!" Remember that quote from the Crocodile Dundee movie? Although they probably weren't the best movies ever made, they did spark some interest from the public and were pretty popular in the 80's! With that popularity came a bit of speculation from knife fanatics around the world as to Crocodile Dundee knife.

Since then, there has been much speculation as to what the Crocodile Dundee Knife type is. And, many collectors and enthusiasts have also been searching for a place to purchase one for their collection. Let's take a look at what type of knife it is, and them maybe it'll be easier to find a place to purchase one!

At first glance, the Crocodile Dundee knife is an impressive, large piece of cutlery. It's unmistakable shape and blade size hints that it may be a large-game type of hunting knife. But is it?

Much debate has been thrown around, and the vast majority of knife collectors would classify it in the Bowie Knife category. We would agree with that, and I'll tell you why!

Bowie knive's signature shape and size is the major reason why the Crocodile Dundee Knife would fit in this classification. It has an enourmous blade which looks to be at least 10 inches long, and it's handle is that of a typical Bowie knife. The fact that he's using it in the "Outback" would also suggest that it falls into the hunting category, which most/all Bowie knives fall into.

Obviously, there's no true way to accurately classify where the Crocodile Dundee Knife belongs without a proper manufacturer's name. You can search the internet, but you'll be hard pressed to find out who actually produced the knife or where it originally came from. All we know, is that it's truely a piece of American (or Australian...for that matter) cinematic history. We can see why these knives are so popular, and finding a replica may not be hard to do now that you know what category to start looking in!
