My Review Of Thepropshop's "psychopath Knife." - The Death Curse - 11-15-2008
Hello, all.Well, I said that I'd post a review of "ThePropShop" website's Psychopath Knife as soon as it arrives here. It came yesterday afternoon (less than 2 weeks after my initial order, believe it or not!) and I haven't put it down since! This knife is my favorite of the 3 I currently own, and the other two are REAL vintage kitchen knives.To start off, this thing is so huge, it's almost comically so. When I took it out of the package, I was surprised to discover that it's 21" long, and 2.5" wide at the hilt!!! It completely dwarfs my other knives, and it took a while for my eyes to get used to seeing it. Below are a couple pictures for size reference. (The bottom knife is 15" long, the middle knife is a Lamson-esque 18" length, and the top knife is the 21" long PropShop replica.)<img src=\"http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h98/MoonlitDevil/P1200525.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><img src=\"http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h98/MoonlitDevil/P1200536.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" />Next, the way this knife is manufactured is very clever. It fools the eye very well. It seems to be a plastic construction, and although the blade is somewhat flexible, the handle and hilt are nice and rigid. From what I can tell, it looks like it was cast in two pieces - handle and blade separately - then epoxied together at the area where the handle meets the hilt. (This would explain all the "blood" painted around that area.) It doesn't detract from the piece at all, though. In fact, it's still rather hard to notice even in close-up pictures like these:<img src=\"http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h98/MoonlitDevil/P1200527.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><img src=\"http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h98/MoonlitDevil/P1200530.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" />Finally, the paintjob...It looks friggin' GREAT. I'll let the above and below pictures speak for themselves:<img src=\"http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h98/MoonlitDevil/P1200532.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><img src=\"http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h98/MoonlitDevil/P1200531.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" /><img src=\"http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h98/MoonlitDevil/P1200529.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" />Thanks for looking and cheers,Ryan

And here is one more picture that I thought looked pretty funny... <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":biggrin:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"biggrin.gif\" /> My lady took quite a liking to the knife and we took pictures with it all day long.<img src=\"http://i62.photobucket.com/albums/h98/MoonlitDevil/P1200392.jpg\" border=\"0\" class=\"linked-image\" />Cheers,Ryan

That's an insane size... especially since I remember Adriane being at LEAST 8 feet tall. Er.. maybe I'm a little off.... <img src=\"style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/cool.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\"
