''And that kid is me'' !!!! You better invite me to the red carpet viewing of that movie because it sounds like a good one! First of all absolutely stellar video! The blast through your past and leading up to Rambo and the obsession was great! Rambo at least in my opinion has to be one of if not the best collection of action films of all time and the fact that each movie had a different knife that had as much allure as the main hero makes it all the better! The history lesson on Gil was amazing he is a thing of legend in his own right with so many notorious designs considered by many to be the greatest knife designer of all time! Mix that with greatest action movie of all time and you get Rambo! I totally share your excitement about the Rambo 3 prototype knives they are absolutely amazing and would be the "holy grail" to your collection! That Arizona knife is amazing, your collection is amazing and I thoroughly enjoyed this video!
JED HORNBEAK KNIVES Huge THANK YOU to YOU as Well 🤠❤️🙏🔪🎵 You are indeed a huge part of all this “ Rambo / Hibben “ salute . Could not of been done without ya ! If Stallone were to reach out to me , I’m not going alone . I will show him your gorgeous work ( we will not only see a Hibben but a Hornbeak as well ). Speaking of the childhood days in the 70’s , I felt like I just did a “ book report “ for school haha ( mixed in with a little show and tell ). I wonder what grade the teacher would of gave me ????? Stay safe as always my friend 🤠
Brother I just wanted to say it’s good to see you back and I am a huge fan of your designs. Your definitely a top shelf knife maker. Outstanding quality and craftsmanship 👍🏻🇺🇸⚔️
wow brother!!!thats a heckuva tan.great pics man.your navy pics.ed parker elvis and gill photo.the alaskan one is a smaller heartstopper too.nice idea brother.new blood.i like it!!!👍👍👍
That’s another knife to add to the Pohl inspired Knives haha . I swear he took some of Gil’s designs and made his own . Little copyright infringement haha . Sorry for delayed response ( just saw this now ).
You are the amazing one !! ( I received package the other day - I plan on doing a better shout out in part 2 ). It’s just so bad ass awesome !!!! I’ll be in touch my brother . Thank you again and again 🤠❤️🎵🙏🔪
On my Part 2 , I will leave a link to your channel . Hoping to get your channel some more recognition as you deserve it . Very Talented !!! Stay safe as always and I’ll be in touch again shortly. 🤠
Hello again my friend ... Just letting you know that I posted a new video the other day titled “ Hibben Arizona Bowie Knife plus my Rambo 6 Fantasy “. Come say hello !! I hope all is safe and well on your end . Take care always 🤠
This is such a cool channel. Sorry I'm late but I have happily subscribed. An hope I don't miss no more. Thanks for sharing your awesome content with us. An have a wonderful day today 🤙👍🎸🎸🎸🤠🤘👌
Lone Ranger ( for some reason I liked Tanto more than the lone Ranger🤷♂️), Evil Canevil, the bionic man, Fonzie, Rambo, were All my favorites! We are cut from the same cloth my friend.
I felt bad for Johnny Depp in the latest one. He's got Cherokee in him and there were folks saying a white guy stole Tonto's character. The original Lone Ranger was classic. Loved it.
@@southbeachmiamiart895 I thought Johnny Depp did an excellent job! He was hilarious! That move got tore apart from the dumb ass critics. For a comedy, I thought it was a good rendition of the original.
"Rambo: New Blood", that is a brilliant idea! Great video, man I love the way you research your stuff and print out stuff to share what you find. Cant wait for the next one 👊
I wish I could have this documentary produced and edited by someone half decent . I should be doing Part 2 in about 4 more days ??? ( waiting on something special to arrive in the mail ). Stayyyyyy Tuned 🤠 Stay Safe as Always 🙏
Haha Thanks so much for taking the time to watch . Love Memory Lane !! Much simpler time In my life . Still making good memories nowadays. Time just flying by wayyyy too fast ! Stay safe as always 🤠
Anthony Murphy I’m so glad you watched !! Highly appreciate you being here . Hey - you like “ JAWS “?? Check out my JAWS 45 Year Anniversary Tribute video . If you need link let me know ( when you get a chance ). I made it last summer . Stay safe as always 🤠
I am just seeing this now ..... I do apologize for the delayed response. Sincerest apologies . Getting ready to take a break and end Season 2 . During that time off I spend most of my youtube time on everyone else’s channels . I got a lot of catching up to do . Hope you and the family are well my friend . See you soon 🤠
Great history as I learned a few things so thanks....Nice new movie pitch.....BTW, Jed is to mail my sort of styled MK8 knife to me tomorrow 4/28/20 as it looks real good and now I am having him make me a Rambo type machete....I am going to be knee deep in fun just like you sir as you have a good energized spirit that makes folks feel good....Love your collection of Rambo stuff as that is awesome....Good stuff...
Scott F. I am so excited for you !!!!! Truly Blessed my friend !! And how crazy would that be if Rambo 6 ( my lucky number by the way ) is a reality!?!? And I can wield the Arizona ( Gil will get this knife in a movie eventually). So nice to dream ....... Haha . Keep safe as always my friend 🤠
My childhood heroes growing up were the A-Team and Knight Rider also the Ghostbusters. And my movie heroes were Arnold and Stallone, it's because I was a kid in the 80s. When I was a kid in the 80's we used to love Hulk Hogan The Macho Man and The Ultimate Warrior.
The custom with the copper guard was one good looking piece. Good eye on catching that knife mix up during that mine scene. You definitely know your Rambo blades. 👍🗡
( I thought I responded to this already .... I apologize for the delay )... Thanks so much for watching . Yeah that custom is in my Top 3 All time favorite knives . It was one of the absolute greatest surprises I ever received. It not only looks great but it is made of some high quality materials. Will treasure that forever ! I’m a huge Rambo knife fan , and now a Jed Hornbeak fan ( he made the custom just for me ). I’m forever grateful. Hope you are well my friend .🤠
That is such an awesome collection and I really liked the back story of your life that led up to your collecting Rambo knives and Hibben knives; I think there is a Rambo six in the works maybe in the next five or six years from now...maybe . Anyways I will try to get to a video tomorrow it is hard with the kids being home but you take care and stay safe my brother of the blade.
Arizona Bladesman Oh I feel ya on that one brother . I’m in full “ Baby Sitting “ mode again . Not as long as before , just a few hours from like 11 til 3 . So at least I feel a little normalcy again . ( and having the other 2 kids at home from school is also a blessing -- but they are always freakin hungry it seems - and they always have a ton of laundry 🧺 for me to do ). Never ends . But I’m happy 🤠❤️🙏🎵🔪 Stay safe and I’ll be over to catch up on some videos today ( wayyyyy behind ).
Whats your thoughts on the Hibben assualt tactical knife? I was checking it out and thinking on getting getting one. But def ripped off design by pohl for the heart stopper
I think the Assault is a beautiful piece. But I’m bias - I like everything Gil makes for the most part - with the exception of those fantasy knives . Not really a fan of “ double shadow “ and other non traditional knives . But I love the rest ! If I were to recommend one Hibben you might not have , check out the Alaskan Survival. Love that design !!!
MovieGuy666 Thank you so much 🤠 If you can remember, let me know when you get your Rambo 4 Blade . Love to hear what you think . “ It’s Crude “!! Haha Keep safe as always 🤠
Jipsie Mune Good Day to you ❤️ Yes - I do believe that book is still available ( on Amazon). It’s a good read ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you so much for being a part of this . Keep safe as always 🤠
Agree 100% that Gil Hibben is the master, maybe even the god, of knives. The one of his I want the most though is the Kenpo Knife based on the knife he made for Grandmaster Ed Parker. Had a chance to buy one, but the man who had it wanted a grand for it and there's no way I could afford that.
targetswattitude No one can !! Hahahaha Yeah that’s a lot of $$ to spend on a blade . I think the most I ever spent was $450 ?? And I had to make payments ( which was cool - this way it wouldn’t look so bad to my wife , ya know what I mean )??? If I spent 1 K on a knife , I seriously think she would start the divorce proceedings hahaha . But that would of been amazing to own !! ( Ed Parker is in that photo I showed in the video - Elvis , Gil and Parker ( and one more guy ). Gil is indeed my hero - my ultimate knife master ( plus he knows some forms of martial arts 🥋). Stay safe as always and Huge Thanks for watching 🤠
Sorry for the delay on this response ( I’m just seeing it now ) . I apologize my friend . Thanks so much for watching this . Trip down memory lane ..... those were the days haha .
Loved this video. I got The Rambo 2 "my hip hugger " and I got now, a heartstopper, a Rambo 1,2,3 pack from this UK dealer. Wish me luck! Love your vids man!!
Well ai just Sparked to That !!!!! Haha Wow Bro !! Congratulations on that one ! Please keep me in mind if you ever want to part with . That is so cool !!!
An amazing trip through some pretty amazing knife history. I really enjoyed this a lot my friend, you absolutely did not disappoint, I'm looking forward to part 2. I'm grateful that in these times of spending far more time in the house than I would like to, that you are making stuff like this, I can just sit back and check out some awesome knives and forget about all the crap that's going on for just a little while. I appreciate it brother and I wish happiness and healthiness for you and your family
Carmem Wickman And it’s because of people like you , that I want to do this for , with the hopes that you find it entertaining, helpful and even educational haha . ( when I was done with all this , it really brought back so many great memories- like I felt like I just did a book report with a bit of “ Show and Tell “ mixed in haha ). I wonder what grade the teacher would of given me ???? Anyway - when I figured out that I was just about hitting the 25 minute mark , I knew I had to end it . There is still much more to show -- and tell 🤠 I sincerely appreciate you being a huge part of this . Stay safe as always 🤠 And see you again real soon .
we had all the same heroes. long ranger. 6 million dollar man. i have a huge 16 by 20 of six million dollar man with andre in his bigfoot costume and makeup. and i have it signed by lee majors. it is on my wall right now. fonz. i loved too as i had a fonz coat and a fonz cereal bowl. cool video. we are both rambo nuts. kiss fans. evel is the reason i wanted to jump bikes and got into bmx which rad then got to where i am today as a bmx stunt rider. i still got my original evel doll. i still go my og kiss dolls etc.
MOUNTAINOUS I’m so glad you watched this . I was thinking about you actually during the 70’s flashback ( especially being a KISS Fan ). Yeah we definitely would of been friends growing up . Keep safe as always brother 🤠
MOUNTAINOUS Love me some Timber Wolf !!!! See you soon ( getting ready to go sit with the granddaughter in a little bit but I will be over ). Thanks again 🤠
Lol oh my God I haven’t seen that poster in decades.. I still have old Kiss Vinyl I’ll never part with, I wished I hadn’t poked a whole in my freaking Stretch Armstrong lol.. Amazing Video thank you so much, it just took me back. Semper Fidelis my Brother
I would love to see a Rambo movie with you in it, that would be awesome. You look like the perfect choice to play his son. That is a tag team movie that I don't want to miss.
JerseyKnife Guy Oh Yeah !!!!!! Such a fine hobby it is ❤️ Very addicting ( like the ol Lays potato chip slogan “ Bet ya can’t have just one “!! Hahaha Keep safe as always my friend 🤠
Hi Cowboy. I've got a little Rambo trivia for you. You remember the stick fight scene in the beginning of Rambo 3. Sly's opponent on that scene is Harold Diamond. Harold, was a world champion full contact fighter who also was my cousin Steve fight instructor down in Miami and Steve, was "our" fight instructor. We had the benefit of having them BOTH as coaches from time to time. Harold and I have kept in touch throughout the years. Harold's a really super guy and say the same about Stallone! Small world huh lol. Just a little something I thought I should share with a fellow Rambo fan...
Wow !! Yes I definitely remember that bad ass dude !!! I always wondered how much time they spent rehearsing that scene . Excellent opening to any movie !!!! Small world !!!!!!!
wnerk o Yeah I believe it was . I know that their are similar designs out there but who else would Pohl look for inspiration to ?? How bout that Hibben movie knife guy ??? Hahahaha LOVE !! THESE !! KNIVES!!!
Glad to see you got your "Arizona Bowie"!! Also your speculation on the Hibben assault was my exact thought a few days ago!! When I saw the Hibben assault I KNEW where the heartstoppers design came from being the Hibben assault was out a few years before Last Blood....man what a rip off of someones design
Ricky King God Bless You Ricky King !! You know it !! Hey - I know that there are similar designs that he could of used -- but REALLY??? Who else would Pohl of looked up to and be inspired by ???? “ Ahhhh - how bout this Hibben guy who makes movie knives for Rambo “??? Hahahahahahaha Just an observation that was bugging me . So glad you agree !! You got a good eye brother !!!! And I’m loving that Arizona!!!!!! I have not used it yet but just looking at it you can just tell how freakin sharp this bad boy is ! Like Laser Sharp !! It’s pretty awesome indeed and I can’t thank you enough for bringing it to my attention. Did some research and clarified a few things ( found a ton of info on this journey ). Already making plans for Part 2 . Stay Tuned !!! Stay Connected!! Stay Safe 🤠
@@tubes5150 I 'm going to buy one of the mk-8 blanks off ebay and Jed said he would do the handle and sheath. As for the pohl heartstopper ...like I said as soon as I saw the Hibben assualt tactical knife I knew there was a connection. BUT at first I thought Gil tried to copy Pohl until I saw the assault was out number of years before Last Blood, then I knew pohl used Gils design. Actually the blade of Pohls mk-8 looks more like that of the assault. It's like he used Gil's design to make both his knives!!
Ricky King That is so cool ! Jed going to make the handle - you wont find better work . Trust Me !! And yeah - I just know he was thinking about my boy Gil when designing the MK-8 and 9 . Gotta love it !! ( I just hope he gave credit where credit was due ). 🤠
@@tubes5150 I doubt that.....No credit given to Gil! Not even in the Last Blood credits for using his machete design. Like they threw Gil under the bus on this one. IMO the Pohl heart stopper never fit in with the theme of this movie. To tactical ...the Arizona would of fit more in with the western atmosphere
Ricky King I get what you are saying . And I must agree . Although the HS is indeed a beauty , it seems to go into another direction when you look at the previous designs . That Arizona ( IMO ) still might make it into a Stallone film . ( I gotta feeling)🙏🙏🙏
DrawingMyWay _ Long time collecting . Put my heart and soul into this hobby . They are like my other kids haha . They are part of the fam . So glad we connected brother 🤠
Thanks so much !!!! I’m a fan haha haha . I just posted a quick video yesterday about giving Gil Hibben credit . Various companies use his name to profit .... and give him zero royalties . That’s just so wrong !! Namely Hollywood Collectable/ Master Cutlery . I am thinking of starting a petition. They ( like so many others in the industry) owe Gil Big Time !! Other than knives - Gil’s life has been tremendous! Lots of achievements. And still continues to do what he enjoys doing . I just want to shake his hand . The time I spent watching Stallone on the Creed 2 film shoot , all I wanted to do was shake Sly’s hand , and say “ I can’t believe I’m shaking the hand - that shook Gil Hibbens hand “!!’ Haha haha He would love that !
@@tubes5150 😂... I think he can see the humor in it... Yes.. There are always companies that makes profits out somebody, it's a shame... The same with the Mk9... Hollywood collectible did not have the approval from the Pohl Force company. And there are more... I have watch a video on RUclips of Gill hibben... There he said that his workshop was built by Sylvester stallone, because the knives did do so well... I think that if every company pay some kind of money just to use the name Gill hibben he would be a millionaire by now. But I think he has a tremendous career as a knife designer and knife maker until this day.. And he has sons to continue his legacy.. And that's great... I hope he will live for a long time.. Sorry for the bad English 🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@74verseveld Your English is better than mine haha . Yeah if you haven’t watched yet , I do invite you over to my latest video . ( The Mission ).... It’s a shame !!!
Haha I figured you might like that one . A friend of mine was just asking me yesterday at a family / friend gathering “how’d you get into collecting knives “???? I started to tell him - then I thought of this video . I said “ watch that video and that will give you a quick run down on when this all started “. He ( like So many others around here ), had no idea about my knife collection. It’s just something I don’t ever advertise around here . Trust No One !!! It’s my personal hobby . And I just started doing these videos like 2 years ago . Before this I was just a silent collector . Still quite silent around these parts haha . Ya know what I mean ????
@@tubes5150 Trust no one!!! Those are my words coming out of your mouth, brother. I know exactly what you mean, yes. Love the videos... keep em coming, Sir.
@@keithmichael5839 Amen to that 🤠🔪❤️🙏🎵 I’ve lived and learned so much over the years . It’s a damn shame ! Just glad I got a very friendly insane dog haha . When we aren’t home he likes to sit and look out the dining room window . The mailman loves him Thank God haha .
@@tubes5150 My dog is family... love him to the moon and back. Can't imagine life without a dog. They're the best beings walking the planet, imo. And yes, what's happening to the country now is a damn shame. I'm not sure what disgusts me more... the clowns on the far left running roughshod over everyone else in the middle & on the right, or us allowing the clowns on the far left to destroy the country. And that isn't hyperbole to me... they're literally destroying what it took men 250 years to build, and it's tough to watch.
@@keithmichael5839 Oh it’s a tragedy!!! I don’t know how much more I can take !! The hits keep on coming !!!!! I’ve been silent about it on the outside . My family gets to hear me moan and groan all the time . But I have had it brother !!! I know this sounds funny but I just had to purchase a Mr Potato Head on EBay for my granddaughter ( grandkids ) . When I heard they are not making them anymore because of the gender thing - I’m like “ Who Makes These Calls For Heavens Sakes “!!!!! That was my tip of the iceberg!!! Poor Mr Potato Head !! What’s next ?? Will Toy Story come off the shelves ?? Will they delete all his scenes ???? It’s sounds funny ...... But it’s really not . No telling how far they are willing to go . Don’t get me started!! Haha I’m trying to smile haha . Crazy out there !!!!!!
DrawingMyWay _ Oh I sure do hope Sly watches this . Or Gil Hibben ( he can tell Sly all about it since they are buds ). Dreams Can Come True !!! Thank you so much for that awesome drawing !!! Treasure this always 🤠❤️🙏
Wow man that's crazy you were stationed at the Naval Air Station on Guam in the 80s play when I was in the 7th and 8th grade my dad was in the United States Air Force stationed at Andersen Air Force Base Guam from 1984 to 87 survival opposite ends of the island but basically there for the same purpose defending freedom
James McIntyre That is So Incredibly Awesome !!! You know how many people I’ve met , who were stationed in Guam , since I returned home ??? Zero !!! It’s a big world and all but I thought maybe someday I would meet someone who was there ( other than old Navy Buddies ). Your dad and I could of met up at some point out there ! There were a couple of bars that I used to go sing at ( if a certain band was playing , I would ask if I could sing a song or 2 ). Uncle Bobs bar and Monkeys ( I think that was the name ). Seems like another lifetime ago . I could not live on the ship while we were in port , so I had a friend who would let me stay with him and his wife off base . I arrived on Guam in 87 . Your dad might of been leaving when I was arriving . ( the real funny thing is I originally joined the Air Force , but they screwed up my orders in a really bad way ). Long Story . So the Navy it shall be !! What a Ride !! Thanks again for watching and keep safe as always 🤠
wnerk o One of the main reasons I like Adam Sandler - is his admiration for Henry Winkler . I’d shit if I met him !!! ( so close but yet so far ). Definitely on my “ Gotta meet before I die “ list . Hahaha
wnerk o He already put in a few of his goofy movies : “ Waterboy “ and “ Click “ off the top of my head . ( sad scene in “ Click “ - don’t like seeing Old Fonzie )
Cowboy C Bop damn.i remember that now.same here.that was sad.i used to listen to the adam sandler comedy cassettes in the early 90s.backroading getting smoked out.lol.the old days.cant do it anymore.lol.take care brother
wnerk o We had tickets for the Adam Sandler show , in Atlantic City , back on March 17 . It was postponed due to corona . ( they were going to announce a future date ). But last week , Sandler announced “cancelled “! Our kids all chipped in to buy these for my wife and I at Christmas. So they are now going to receive a refund at some point . Merry Christmas!! Hahahaha
This was a GREAT video!!!! Nice trip down memory lane, u and I had a lot of the same interests, ur a little bit older, about 5 years or so, I was born in 72, and that 5 year difference, may be the reason why u left out Star Wars, lol. And being that ur from Philly, I was surprised to see the Cowboys cheerleaders, on ur wall, I had a very similar one, but I’ve been a Cowboys fan, since I was 5, lol. The first Rambo movie I ever saw, was Rambo First Blood part 2, I was 13, and that knife started my love and appreciation for the Bowie knife, I didn’t begin collecting, until I was an adult. I had a chance, one time, way back in 86 to get the Rambo 2 replica, my dad and I were at a gun and knife show, it was $29.99 I asked my father if I could get it, he was a Marine, fought in Vietnam, he said, if I wanted a knife, he’d get me a “real” knife, and I got a nice new Ka Bar USMC, I still have it, but it wasn’t the knife I wanted, lol. The Rambo 3 knife is my favorite, it began my collection, I now have a big collection, and all the Rambo knives, I didn’t like the Heartstopper, at first, but it has really grown on me, I have the HC and the UC versions, the UC is much closer to the movie, and was less expensive, when I purchased them. I have 3196/5000, on my HC. I really enjoyed ur Beth cover, I was Peter Criss for Halloween, when I was a kid, I’m also a drummer, that’s why I chose Peter. My wife’s name is Beth, she hates that song, but it’s one of my favorites. Man, u keep making these great knife videos, I’ll keep watching! Thanks for ur hard work brother!! All the best, from Tennessee. Peace!!
The next time I make a trip to the strip In Nashville I’ll let you know ( I like to sing and almost every live band I had seen out there has allowed me to sing a song or 2 - always a success too ). So much fun !! I guess they get a little nervous not knowing if I could sing or not so they are taking a chance haha . Again - it’s always a success haha . Been singing in bands for decades Retired now . It’s just so much more fun doing the Nashville thing . I posted a video a couple years ago singing at the Honky Tonk . That was fun !! Wish I had more vids like that . The rest are all on vhs . ( bands from 90’s and 2000’s ). One of these days I’ll do a splice of Em all and post on RUclips . Anyway - We are here because of our fondness for knives !!! Haha That is so cool that your dad got you a KaBar instead of the Rambo . What a great first knife!!!!! I had Rambo blades in the 80’s but I don’t think they were Jimmy Lile’s or anything like that . ( I would die if I ever found out that I actually had one of his and sold it ). But I highly doubt it . I don’t think I ever spent more than $20 on the ones I had back then haha . Anyway so glad you watched the KISS BETH video . Didn’t have the right makeup or anything that day .... was just having fun with my granddaughter and put it all together in about 30 minutes . My son in law was there to help haha . I’d like to do that one better too one of these days . I’m not getting any younger so nows the time !! Had one idiot say “ why would you choose Peter Criss “???!!!! And I just replied “ cause I’d look pretty stupid singing Beth dressed up as Gene “!! Haha Great Song !! One of my favorites still . Sentimental bro ...... sentimental. Nice chatting . Catch up soon again . Stay Cool as Always 😎
@@tubes5150 great hearing from u Cowboy, I’m about 2 hours or so, from Nashville, in Memphis. Been in bands, my whole life, practically, until the CoV, guest singers, guitar players, etc always turn out ok, even when they don’t, lol. I don’t have any gigs, on the horizon, but I know a couple bands that do, around town, I’m sure they would let u sit in. I’m sure it would turn out fantastic too, it’s Memphis, it’s the blues, but I’m sure u would fit right in!
@@robertbates9948 Oh Hell Yes !!!!! You made my day brother 🤠 Love connecting with a fellow artist . Most people on here think C Bop is just a knife guy haha . Boy if they only knew ....... So many years of live shows - studio work and guest appearances. Are you ready for one of the highlights of my rock and roll career ????? My wife and I , and my lead singer at the time along with his wife , well we all went to the city to watch Slash “ Slash’s Snakepit “, back in like 2000 / 2001 . We were front row . They didn’t play any Guns and Roses tunes and it was still awesome . And then the encore starts . Guess who they picked out of the audience to come sing “ Mr Brownstone “????? Yup ! Your talking to him right now haha . Unplanned - Unrehearsed- Sheer Random ness !!! Luckily I knew all the words . That was a thrill of a lifetime!! It’s a shame RUclips didn’t exist ! It’s a shame no one had a camera phone . Remember the days when all that stuff would be confiscated at the door ???? Miss those days !! Now you go see a great band - and the next day there are 100 clips of the night on RUclips . I’d love to get a hold of that evening with Slash !! On our way home , I think I was in just shock . My wife kept saying “ did that really just happen “?????? And my poor old lead singer haha haha ( he has the really long hair with the scarves and a bunch of rings on his fingers etc etc ).... Well he wanted to know why he wasn’t chosen . I think he was a little bitter . Probably still pissed off after all these years haha . There were other memorable events in my life but That one stands out due to the unexpected. Did not see that coming !!! Be good brother and Rock On 🤘
@@tubes5150I bet that was awesome, thanks for sharing that with me!! I have an interesting story, or two, myself. One night we were playing a Paiste showcase, I play Zildjian cymbals, but that’s beside the point, all the reps were there, and some artists, as well, and one of them was Nicko Mcbrain, drummer from Iron Maiden, and one of my all time favorites, we let him sit in for a couple tunes, he broke some sticks, and a drum head, but it was awesome!!! He’s got a fast right foot, fantastic drummer!! I knew u were more than just a knife guy brother, ur a Navy vet, thank u for ur service my friend, a family man, a grandfather, like myself, etc. one thing that I like about ur channel is, that it’s real, it’s u giving ur opinion on things in an honest way, I appreciate that. Donnie B too, all day. Lol. I feel like, I know u, even though I don’t, We have a lot in common. U keep up the good work, I wish u all the best brother.

@@robertbates9948 Thank you so much for your kind words . Your a Navy Vet too ???????? I didn’t know that . If so - Hello Shipmate !! Haha Nicko McBrain is Freakin amazing ! Only time I got to see IM was way back in the early 80’s . My best friend had an amazing artist paint the cover of Number of The Beast on his M-65 jacket . I think his mother still has it ( or had it )??? Don’t know where that is now . My buddy had passed away back in 2010 and his mother passed in 2017 . I know his sister is living around Penn State college area ( that is actually pretty far from me ). I wonder if she has that jacket ?? And I wonder if she would ever part with ?? Does not hurt to ask . I know she is on Facebook ( I used to be on there for about 5 minutes about 5 years ago ) haha . I’m not a Facebook guy . I’d love to reach out to her ..... Say “ Hello “ and “ How have you been “ and “ by the way ..... do you have Joe’s Iron Maiden Jacket “??? Haha One of these days when I get up the courage haha . Feel bad asking .
Thanks for getting back to me . I’m still thinking about what I would recommend ( out of my own experience). I am thinking the USMC KABAR ( although I prefer the USN version .... same thing ). I like the Gerber Strong Arm too . I am also a SOG Seal Pup fan . ( have that already attached to my “ Bug Out Bag “ just like Mark Wahlberg had when he portrayed Marcus Latrell in “ Lone Survivor “ ). And finally- I am a SOG 2.0 Bowie fan . That is absolutely the best looking out of them all . High quality - just FLAWLESS . ( you know I like my movie knives ..... I spotted the SOG 2.0 Bowie in Terminator 2 ). Yeah . I would recommend the 2.0 . ( I’m certain their are better - stronger combat knives out there , but it all depends on what YOU are into ). The 2.0 comes in a very nice high quality black leather sheath too . It’s one of those knives , that you are afraid to use because you don’t want to mark up it’s beauty . But it is very useable!! I take good care of mine and rarely use I must admit . But it’s there just in case . I hope this helps and let me know what you decide . Stay safe as always 🤠
Elijah Dimke There you go !! I think that a custom Stag is an excellent choice ( I had a few custom made ). I actually have one that I paid for like 3 months ago that has yet to arrive ( damn virus is screwing up everything). Let me know when yours arrives . Stay safe as always 🤠
Donnie B All Day I think the term “ 2 Great Minds “ does not apply anymore haha . It seriously goes beyond that anymore . Somehow I already knew that you did ( amongst other things ) Hahahaha . Unbelievable!!
Six million dollar man I loved that show. I remember all them but then we close to the same age too. Yea I lived all then shows Fonz was awesome too. But yea rocky I really got I to that then Rambo I'm 46 still don't have a Rambo well big knife I've had few small ones. The knife with the compass and line hooks matches that good stuff inside I had few cheaper ones role a few bigger cheaper ones. Lol but yea wish ide got into the Rambo and got some back when I was younger and working. But at 18 well my birthday all mine were stolen had a box full of them I was in Alabama had left mich month early left home to work and got hurt ended up on crutches living in my truck for month or 3. Lol. But I quit collecting for whole due to that. Then finally started again and I was 40 I think had over 300 stolen and almost 200 I was selling lost alot. So I don't buy like I used to till Raven got there 10 dollar knife a month for year and 10 then they quit. Wish they went 2 more months. But for 17 with shipping I got some nice knifes. But think it's time to sell and keep my fav and use the money to buy me something nice. Maybe a Rambo or gro. Lol. But sorry said to much again. But loved your video loved the info the knives and now I'm smarter about rambo. Thank you. God bless
Danny Schwab Thank you so much for sharing . Glad you are here . Stay tuned for Part 2 ( about a week or sooner ). Lots to still talk about . Keep safe as always!!! That’s the Most Important thing in this world !!!!! 🤠🙏🔪🤠🙏🔪🤠🙏🔪
@@tubes5150 ok I'll be looking out. Sorry I haven't been on much just having tuff time right now dealing with what's going on and life I'm shocked I'm still here. And I miss making vidoes I'm not good but I love doing them and chatting with people. But I'll be looking out and you be safe out there also. God bless
Well Cowboy C looks like the HCG Last Blood knives are pushed back to August instead of july shipping!! This is really crazy! I have been waiting since mid November
Ricky King Yeah I know . Been waiting a long time for them ... along with 3 others that are shipping from Nepal and Pakistan. They were almost done with the customs and then this damn Covid Crap ignited . I wonder now if I’ll ever see them .
Thank you for sharing your amazing story and collection sir it’s really impressive I own the plan a knife from condor now you reviewd the other day I had to have it ! Your an inspiration to me Sir!!! Take care stay save and god bless you allways !!!
Stefan Klaus I’m so happy for you right now !!!!🤠❤️🔪🤠❤️🔪 Did you receive that beauty yet ?? I’m excited!!!!! Let me know when you do . Such a Great Choice !! Thank you so much for being a part of this journey. Stay safe as always 🤠
Cowboy C Bop i recieved it a view days ago and it’s laying next to my bed in case someone tries to atack me in my apartment at night so thank you once again for reviewing it 😊take care stay save and god bless you
Stefan Klaus That is So Freakin Awesome !!!!!! Ya know , I was doing some New Knife searches yesterday , and I gotta say - I think I’m done ✅. It’s going to be so hard to try and find a nice big blade , for a fairly decent price , that would be as nice as the “ Plan A “. Although there are still a few on my wish list that Soooo Many People Already Have - I try to find that “ diamond in the rough “ . Ya know what I mean ? A great knife - at a great buy . I don’t like over rated knives ( the ones that are overly priced just because of their name brand ). You ever see those knives that are selling for over $300 ?? Sometimes I wonder . If I’m going to spend that kind of dough on a knife , it better be something special . And don’t get me started on those that cost $1200 and more !! WOW !! I saw the Rambo 2 knife ( that was used in the film ), on sale for $35 K !! ( but they make it easy for you if you want the layaway plan -- only $11K down payment ). Hahahaha “ I’ll take 2 “!! Stay safe as always my brother and I’ll talk to you soon 🤠
Cowboy C Bop well Sir I’m the kind of guy who does not care much about the price if a knife falls into my wishlist I do anything I can to have it! It may take some time but I will get it sooner or later so I have knifes that are worth 200, 400 Dollars 😂yes I’m a knife adict and I’m guilty of that I’m sure the next knife catches your eyes and your keep going to be an inspiration for us knife adicts😊stay save ,stay healthy and god allway bless you❤️
It's definitely possible that the inspiration for the Heart Stopper was the Assault but really both of these designs are throw backs to the original Bob Loveless Sub-hilt Big Bear. They are definitely not as close to the original design as the Cold Steel Black Bear Classic but definitely close. Awesome Design and awesome collection Bro!
Ngrave Phenom Thank you so much for watching and commenting. Definitely agree with you ( just a little observation I made ). Yeah I know that there are similar designs out there and all but I absolutely think that Pohl was inspired by Hibben ( if I had to just choose one ). After all , he is the Rambo / Expendables movie knife guy haha . Again - I sincerely appreciated you watching. Stay safe as always 🤠
coincidence.my first blood knife has a bike peg for a handle.also.travolta was supposed to be rambos partner in rambo 2.novel of part 2 is alot different than the movie.my heartstoppers guard is a bit different than original.hardest part to make was the guard.ive got the vhs of the rambo cartoon and the action figure.had the big ass m60 rambo toy gun too.they had a playset that came with the knife and a watch and his buddha necklace.great video brother.be safe too
wnerk o That’s right !! I remember that now ( the bike handle on your First Blood knife ). I said “ that was genius “!! Hahaha 2 Great minds ........ I have 2 of those cheap Buddha necklaces ( had to replace the cheap wire with a thin - strong leather string ). Hopefully I won’t lose this one as I did in the past . Love celebrating Rambo !!!
Cowboy I was just thinking. In Last Blood Rambo is not shown making the MK-8 or MK-9 knife. Actually the MK-8 is shown hanging from the wall next to the part 4 machete before Gabrielle even went to Mexico. The MK-9 is first shown when he is sharpening wood stakes for a booby trap in the preparing for war sequence. So I'm assuming the MK-9 heart stopper like the MK-8 was already made before all this went down. The only knife it showed him making was the letter opener knife for Gabrielle.
PaseOh Hahaha Yup !! Need a few more days ( I’m waiting for something really special to arrive in the mail to include in the next Stallone / Hibben Salute ).
Cowboy, I don't know if you're aware that on that picture of Elvis and Gill, the tall man standing next to Elvis was non other than Master Ed Parker himself! Ed Parker is the inventor of the American style of Kenpo Karate as it exists today!!! He was also Elvis Presley's personal instructor. And btw, Ed Parker did not "give" Elvis his black belt. Elvis "earned" it which in American Kenpo, is NO easy task... You sir, have a very RARE picture there indeed!!!
That is just nuts !! 5 minutes ago I sent you a couple links . You are going to love them !!! Just so funny that you brought this up haha . ( you’ll see )
Look on the Stallone auction results to see what those Arizona Bowies went for (12.8 and 6400 respectively. The Lile #1 sold for 128k! I deleted our original conversation due to the subject.
No problem- I do the same sometimes . Yes I was sent a brief run down on the auction . Maybe he should of sent some of that dough over to Gil ???? ( especially for the Arizona ). Again … it was a prototype and I think he was supposed to return that to Gil . But I could be wrong 😑
@@tubes5150 The whole thing is kind of disappointing. I have an idea for a new Rambo too: A prequel to First Blood but make it all about Delmar Berry and make Berry more badass than Rambo and Rambo kind of an ancillary character. Call it Rambo too, First Blood: The Prequel.
@@Rhythmicons I like the way you think my brother ….. That would be Huge !!!!!!! You can tell that John J looked up to Delmar ….. Big Time !!! I had thought of the prequel too with Delmar but I didn’t really think about how much John admired him . I’ll bet he was kicking some serious ass and taking names -- and saved Rambos life on more than one occasion. Yeah - I like the way you think !! Now who would play who ??
Your a bit younger then me but not enough that any experience would be different I had 6million dollar man doll an gi joe king fu grip an I had a gi joe before ge was adventure team back when you pulled the string he said round op the Japanese troops an I can't remember but it was a big deal. Remember the drive in movies an the arcades good times to be a kid
ScalpingYour TP 🎵🎵” Memories “🎵🎵 Yeah I remember my GI Joe with the string ( I still remember what one of them said haha - I still say that phrase all the time ). Every time I say it , I still get a laugh out of my wife and she has NO idea of what I’m even talking about !! The phrase was : “ JOE - I HAVE A TUFF ASSIGNMENT FOR YOU “!! ( gotta say it like you mean business) haha. You are so right on - could talk about our childhood games for ever . All was good ( until video games took over ). Which I am absolutely no good at !! Only was good at “ Defender “ and “ Galaxia “ and “ Centipede “ . Thanks so much for watching . Stay safe as always and thanks for the memories haha .🤠
What a Super Honor that must of been !!!! Wow ! I’m afraid to go to any of those cause Gil might not be able to get rid of me haha . GIL - “ Security Please “!!!! Haha That’s awesome stuff ! ( I wouldn’t mind seeing what you made - if you ever want to send me a pic or anything let me know and I’ll send you my email info ).
I was a senior in highschool in 76. I remember all that stuff, lol. You have one hell of a collection bro. btw..I wasn't born in Philly, but I lived there for 18 years while I worked at the Philly airport for USAir. Lot's of great memories from those years. I really miss the food..especially the bread. You can't get a decent hoagie roll anywhere once you move away from there. I'd give most anything for a good Primos Italian hoagie, and a I'd double that for a Nick's roast beef. I miss the cheesesteaks too, but a Nick's roast beef..man, if only they could deliver to NY, lol.
Timbo437 Nicks Roast Beef !!!!!! That was my fathers ( R.I.P. ) all time Philly place !! Now I’m going to be craving that for days now ( wonder if they have take out available)????? Had a Primo 2 nights ago ( funny you should bring that up ). I had the “ Swartzie “ roast beef but it tasted like corn beef ( I think they made a mistake but it was still good ). Thank you for being here and taking a trip down memory lane . My sister in law was a 76 grad - and she loves watching “ Dazed and Confused “. ( she says that was what it was like in 76 ). I think the movie “ Detroit Rock City “ was more like My time frame . Hilarious!!!! Thanks for watching and keep safe as always 🤠
@@tubes5150 It's been about 10 or 11 years since I lived there, but at least back then, yes, they have take out. We used to send somebody over from the airport to pick up our orders. I was told that they went through about 2700 rolls on a Friday, and believe me, the place is very small, no way could that many people fit in a week, let alone a day, lol. I used to like to sit at the bar, eat a sammich or 2, and play the ponies. They had a guy there who would take our bets. I miss those days.
Timbo437 You might of seen my father there at some point in time . His best friend would go there often -- and if they could bet the ponies while having a delicious RB - they surely would have Hahahaha . I’m just so thankful that Nicks is still there . Speaking of the airport - my wife works night shift right next door ( post office ). On her way home this morning , she was rear ended . Yup !!! So dealing with that BS right now . ( waiting on a call back from the insurance company to see what our next step is ). Thank God no one was hurt . ( it’s our brand new car and this is twice now it got rear ended ). Arrrrrgggggghhhhhh
@@tubes5150 Sorry to hear that mate! I've been to the airport PO to many times to count. I can't tell you how may carts full of mail I've loaded into the bins of aircraft. 18 years is a long time, and those carts of mail just kept coming, specially around the holidays.
Timbo437 I’m having Flashbacks!!! Hahahaha I spent 16 years as a mail handler at the Devon post office . It never stops !! Even on a holiday - everyone is closed so you think “ No Mail - should be an easy night “...... Nope !! We still got hammered !! ( but at least the time went by fast - before you knew it , it was time to ALMOST clock off . Then the supervisor would walk over and politely say the words “ 4 hours mandatory overtime “. Flashbacks !!
During your research on the Rambo knives you may have stumbled across this. Here's the website that covers pretty much the complete history of the Rambo knives. www.cartertown.com/rambo1.htm#:~:text=Lile's%20shop%20also%20produced%20800%20unnumbered%20First%20Blood%20knives.&text=The%20original%20Lile%20knives%20were,made%20from%20440C%20stainless%20steel.
ArkansasCatfisherman Oh yes ... I did see that quite a few times . That is like the best history write up on the Knives . Talks about the prototypes to the finished product . Thanks for watching . Keep safe as always 🤠
Have to tell you I like Rambo , but can't be that loner. I could grub around there in the dirt for a while, and have, but it ain't where I prefer. I'm an Expendable guy. And if you want to write a new story as Barney, go ahead because, I already have a spot. From day one I am Christmas, and may be bringing you the worst holiday you ever had. The first time I saw Jason I went back to see if I had seen everything in his career and it was worth it.. I also have the official set of Kunai Throwers. After testing them I put them away, they are designed to gut a fish but thrown once too often will break. Having been expendable as are all USA and USMC guys, the one on the left and the one on the right are #1 in your line of vision and nothing else matters. Best Wishes
John Bullen I Love This !! “ I’m going to bring you the worst holiday you ever had “! I’m putting that in the script haha . I had a feeling you were more “ Expendables “ - rather than “ Rambo “. I need a few more days so I can do my Part 2 and start getting into the “ Expendables “ blade collection . Stay safe as always 🤠
John Bullen You had me thinking of what character I would most identify with in “ Expendables “. Probably the Mickey Rourke character in all honesty . Few reasons : He is an emotional wreck ( has some PTSD from his former horrific events that he is having a hard time getting over ), and his love for tattoos , likes to hit on that awesome pipe ( I have the same one ), his fondness for Motorcycles and beautiful women , and of course , his Cold Steel Espada ( one of my favorite blades in my collection). The Warner weather is slowly approaching us here in Pa , so that will give me some practice time on knife throwing . ( still can’t wait to give the ones you sent me a toss or two - although I like to treasure them as is because they are from you , I don’t want to mark them up ). But yeah -- The Mickey Rourke character I think I most identify with . Keep safe as always 🤠❤️🙏🔪🎵
''And that kid is me'' !!!! You better invite me to the red carpet viewing of that movie because it sounds like a good one! First of all absolutely stellar video! The blast through your past and leading up to Rambo and the obsession was great! Rambo at least in my opinion has to be one of if not the best collection of action films of all time and the fact that each movie had a different knife that had as much allure as the main hero makes it all the better! The history lesson on Gil was amazing he is a thing of legend in his own right with so many notorious designs considered by many to be the greatest knife designer of all time! Mix that with greatest action movie of all time and you get Rambo! I totally share your excitement about the Rambo 3 prototype knives they are absolutely amazing and would be the "holy grail" to your collection! That Arizona knife is amazing, your collection is amazing and I thoroughly enjoyed this video!
JED HORNBEAK KNIVES Huge THANK YOU to YOU as Well 🤠❤️🙏🔪🎵
You are indeed a huge part of all this “ Rambo / Hibben “ salute .
Could not of been done without ya !
If Stallone were to reach out to me , I’m not going alone .
I will show him your gorgeous work ( we will not only see a Hibben but a Hornbeak as well ).
Speaking of the childhood days in the 70’s , I felt like I just did a “ book report “ for school haha ( mixed in with a little show and tell ).

Lone Ranger ( for some reason I liked Tanto more than the lone Ranger🤷♂️), Evil Canevil, the bionic man, Fonzie, Rambo, were All my favorites! We are cut from the same cloth my friend.
I felt bad for Johnny Depp in the latest one. He's got Cherokee in him and there were folks saying a white guy stole Tonto's character. The original Lone Ranger was classic. Loved it.
@@southbeachmiamiart895 I thought Johnny Depp did an excellent job! He was hilarious! That move got tore apart from the dumb ass critics. For a comedy, I thought it was a good rendition of the original.

"Rambo: New Blood", that is a brilliant idea!
Great video, man I love the way you research your stuff and print out stuff to share what you find.

My childhood heroes growing up were the A-Team and Knight Rider also the Ghostbusters. And my movie heroes were Arnold and Stallone, it's because I was a kid in the 80s. When I was a kid in the 80's we used to love Hulk Hogan The Macho Man and The Ultimate Warrior.

I’m forever grateful.
Hope you are well my friend .🤠
That is such an awesome collection and I really liked the back story of your life that led up to your collecting Rambo knives and Hibben knives; I think there is a Rambo six in the works maybe in the next five or six years from now...maybe . Anyways I will try to get to a video tomorrow it is hard with the kids being home but you take care and stay safe my brother of the blade.
Arizona Bladesman Oh I feel ya on that one brother .
I’m in full “ Baby Sitting “ mode again .
Not as long as before , just a few hours from like 11 til 3 .
So at least I feel a little normalcy again .
( and having the other 2 kids at home from school is also a blessing -- but they are always freakin hungry it seems - and they always have a ton of laundry 🧺 for me to do ).
Never ends .

Stay safe and I’ll be over to catch up on some videos today ( wayyyyy behind ).
Ya it does get a little overwhelming at times. Thanks bro and take care.
Whats your thoughts on the Hibben assualt tactical knife? I was checking it out and thinking on getting getting one. But def ripped off design by pohl for the heart stopper
I think the Assault is a beautiful piece.
But I’m bias -
I like everything Gil makes for the most part - with the exception of those fantasy knives .
Not really a fan of “ double shadow “ and other non traditional knives .
But I love the rest !
If I were to recommend one Hibben you might not have , check out the Alaskan Survival.
Love that design !!!
I want a Rambo 4 knife, great video dude.
MovieGuy666 Thank you so much 🤠
If you can remember, let me know when you get your Rambo 4 Blade .
Love to hear what you think .

At ten I had Sean Cassidy and Winnie the Pooh! 😂 Also, Bionic Woman
Sound like my wife haha .
She loved all 3 growing up !!
Plus Olivia Newton John ( she’s a Xanadu fan ) haha
Agree 100% that Gil Hibben is the master, maybe even the god, of knives. The one of his I want the most though is the Kenpo Knife based on the knife he made for Grandmaster Ed Parker. Had a chance to buy one, but the man who had it wanted a grand for it and there's no way I could afford that.
targetswattitude No one can !!
Hahahaha
Yeah that’s a lot of $$ to spend on a blade .
I think the most I ever spent was $450 ??
And I had to make payments ( which was cool - this way it wouldn’t look so bad to my wife , ya know what I mean )???
If I spent 1 K on a knife , I seriously think she would start the divorce proceedings hahaha .
But that would of been amazing to own !!
( Ed Parker is in that photo I showed in the video - Elvis , Gil and Parker ( and one more guy ).
Gil is indeed my hero - my ultimate knife master ( plus he knows some forms of martial arts 🥋).

Hi Cowboy. I've got a little Rambo trivia for you. You remember the stick fight scene in the beginning of Rambo 3. Sly's opponent on that scene is Harold Diamond. Harold, was a world champion full contact fighter who also was my cousin Steve fight instructor down in Miami and Steve, was "our" fight instructor. We had the benefit of having them BOTH as coaches from time to time. Harold and I have kept in touch throughout the years. Harold's a really super guy and say the same about Stallone! Small world huh lol. Just a little something I thought I should share with a fellow Rambo fan...
Wow !!
Yes I definitely remember that bad ass dude !!!
I always wondered how much time they spent rehearsing that scene .
Excellent opening to any movie !!!!
Small world !!!!!!!
whoa!!!the arizona is sweet!!!still in awe over the mk8 jed made.WOW.the assault knife is definitely the original for the heartstopper
wnerk o Yeah I believe it was .
I know that their are similar designs out there but who else would Pohl look for inspiration to ??
How bout that Hibben movie knife guy ???
Hahahaha
LOVE !!
THESE !!
KNIVES!!!
Glad to see you got your "Arizona Bowie"!! Also your speculation on the Hibben assault was my exact thought a few days ago!! When I saw the Hibben assault I KNEW where the heartstoppers design came from being the Hibben assault was out a few years before Last Blood....man what a rip off of someones design
Ricky King God Bless You Ricky King !!
You know it !!
Hey - I know that there are similar designs that he could of used -- but REALLY???
Who else would Pohl of looked up to and be inspired by ????
“ Ahhhh - how bout this Hibben guy who makes movie knives for Rambo “???
Hahahahahahaha
Just an observation that was bugging me .
So glad you agree !!
You got a good eye brother !!!!
And I’m loving that Arizona!!!!!!
I have not used it yet but just looking at it you can just tell how freakin sharp this bad boy is !
Like Laser Sharp !!
It’s pretty awesome indeed and I can’t thank you enough for bringing it to my attention.
Did some research and clarified a few things ( found a ton of info on this journey ).
Already making plans for Part 2 .
Stay Tuned !!!
Stay Connected!!
Stay Safe 🤠
@@tubes5150 I 'm going to buy one of the mk-8 blanks off ebay and Jed said he would do the handle and sheath. As for the pohl heartstopper ...like I said as soon as I saw the Hibben assualt tactical knife I knew there was a connection. BUT at first I thought Gil tried to copy Pohl until I saw the assault was out number of years before Last Blood, then I knew pohl used Gils design. Actually the blade of Pohls mk-8 looks more like that of the assault. It's like he used Gil's design to make both his knives!!
Ricky King That is so cool !
Jed going to make the handle - you wont find better work .
Trust Me !!
And yeah - I just know he was thinking about my boy Gil when designing the MK-8 and 9 .
Gotta love it !!
( I just hope he gave credit where credit was due ).
🤠
@@tubes5150 I doubt that.....No credit given to Gil! Not even in the Last Blood credits for using his machete design. Like they threw Gil under the bus on this one. IMO the Pohl heart stopper never fit in with the theme of this movie. To tactical ...the Arizona would of fit more in with the western atmosphere
Ricky King I get what you are saying .
And I must agree . Although the HS is indeed a beauty , it seems to go into another direction when you look at the previous designs .
That Arizona ( IMO ) still might make it into a Stallone film .
( I gotta feeling)🙏🙏🙏
Very awesome collection my friend!
DrawingMyWay _ Long time collecting .
Put my heart and soul into this hobby .
They are like my other kids haha .
They are part of the fam .
So glad we connected brother 🤠
Love this video.. Old time sentimental.. Love that.. I like the Arizona knife more than then the mk8 I own.... 👍👍👌👌🙏🙏
Thanks so much !!!!
I’m a fan haha haha .
I just posted a quick video yesterday about giving Gil Hibben credit .
Various companies use his name to profit .... and give him zero royalties .
That’s just so wrong !!
Namely Hollywood Collectable/ Master Cutlery .
I am thinking of starting a petition.
They ( like so many others in the industry) owe Gil Big Time !!
Other than knives - Gil’s life has been tremendous!
Lots of achievements.
And still continues to do what he enjoys doing .
I just want to shake his hand .
The time I spent watching Stallone on the Creed 2 film shoot , all I wanted to do was shake Sly’s hand , and say “ I can’t believe I’m shaking the hand - that shook Gil Hibbens hand “!!’
Haha haha
He would love that !
@@tubes5150 😂... I think he can see the humor in it... Yes.. There are always companies that makes profits out somebody, it's a shame... The same with the Mk9... Hollywood collectible did not have the approval from the Pohl Force company. And there are more... I have watch a video on RUclips of Gill hibben... There he said that his workshop was built by Sylvester stallone, because the knives did do so well... I think that if every company pay some kind of money just to use the name Gill hibben he would be a millionaire by now.
But I think he has a tremendous career as a knife designer and knife maker until this day..
And he has sons to continue his legacy.. And that's great... I hope he will live for a long time.. Sorry for the bad English 🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@74verseveld Your English is better than mine haha .
Yeah if you haven’t watched yet , I do invite you over to my latest video .

I figured you might like that one .
A friend of mine was just asking me yesterday at a family / friend gathering “how’d you get into collecting knives “????
I started to tell him - then I thought of this video .
I said “ watch that video and that will give you a quick run down on when this all started “.
He ( like So many others around here ), had no idea about my knife collection.
It’s just something I don’t ever advertise around here .
Trust No One !!!

Wow man that's crazy you were stationed at the Naval Air Station on Guam in the 80s play when I was in the 7th and 8th grade my dad was in the United States Air Force stationed at Andersen Air Force Base Guam from 1984 to 87 survival opposite ends of the island but basically there for the same purpose defending freedom
James McIntyre That is So Incredibly Awesome !!!
You know how many people I’ve met , who were stationed in Guam , since I returned home ???
Zero !!!
It’s a big world and all but I thought maybe someday I would meet someone who was there ( other than old Navy Buddies ).
Your dad and I could of met up at some point out there !
There were a couple of bars that I used to go sing at ( if a certain band was playing , I would ask if I could sing a song or 2 ).
Uncle Bobs bar and Monkeys ( I think that was the name ).
Seems like another lifetime ago .
I could not live on the ship while we were in port , so I had a friend who would let me stay with him and his wife off base .
I arrived on Guam in 87 .
Your dad might of been leaving when I was arriving .
( the real funny thing is I originally joined the Air Force , but they screwed up my orders in a really bad way ). Long Story .
So the Navy it shall be !!
What a Ride !!
Thanks again for watching and keep safe as always 🤠
Dude!! Where did you get that tshirt? I gotta get one!!!

ive always said im gonna adopt fonzies persona.ayyyyy.fonzie got his persona from rocky actually.henry winkler said in an interview

I’d shit if I met him !!!
( so close but yet so far ).
Definitely on my “ Gotta meet before I die “ list . Hahaha
yeah fonzi was the best.i didnt know that about sandler.
wnerk o He already put in a few of his goofy movies :
“ Waterboy “ and “ Click “ off the top of my head .
( sad scene in “ Click “ - don’t like seeing Old Fonzie )

But last week , Sandler announced “cancelled “!
Our kids all chipped in to buy these for my wife and I at Christmas.
So they are now going to receive a refund at some point .

Hahahaha
This was a GREAT video!!!! Nice trip down memory lane, u and I had a lot of the same interests, ur a little bit older, about 5 years or so, I was born in 72, and that 5 year difference, may be the reason why u left out Star Wars, lol. And being that ur from Philly, I was surprised to see the Cowboys cheerleaders, on ur wall, I had a very similar one, but I’ve been a Cowboys fan, since I was 5, lol. The first Rambo movie I ever saw, was Rambo First Blood part 2, I was 13, and that knife started my love and appreciation for the Bowie knife, I didn’t begin collecting, until I was an adult. I had a chance, one time, way back in 86 to get the Rambo 2 replica, my dad and I were at a gun and knife show, it was $29.99 I asked my father if I could get it, he was a Marine, fought in Vietnam, he said, if I wanted a knife, he’d get me a “real” knife, and I got a nice new Ka Bar USMC, I still have it, but it wasn’t the knife I wanted, lol. The Rambo 3 knife is my favorite, it began my collection, I now have a big collection, and all the Rambo knives, I didn’t like the Heartstopper, at first, but it has really grown on me, I have the HC and the UC versions, the UC is much closer to the movie, and was less expensive, when I purchased them. I have 3196/5000, on my HC. I really enjoyed ur Beth cover, I was Peter Criss for Halloween, when I was a kid, I’m also a drummer, that’s why I chose Peter. My wife’s name is Beth, she hates that song, but it’s one of my favorites. Man, u keep making these great knife videos, I’ll keep watching! Thanks for ur hard work brother!! All the best, from Tennessee. Peace!!
The next time I make a trip to the strip In Nashville I’ll let you know ( I like to sing and almost every live band I had seen out there has allowed me to sing a song or 2 - always a success too ).
So much fun !!
I guess they get a little nervous not knowing if I could sing or not so they are taking a chance haha .
Again - it’s always a success haha .
Been singing in bands for decades
Retired now .
It’s just so much more fun doing the Nashville thing .
I posted a video a couple years ago singing at the Honky Tonk .
That was fun !!
Wish I had more vids like that .
The rest are all on vhs . ( bands from 90’s and 2000’s ).
One of these days I’ll do a splice of Em all and post on RUclips .
Anyway -
We are here because of our fondness for knives !!!
Haha
That is so cool that your dad got you a KaBar instead of the Rambo .
What a great first knife!!!!!
I had Rambo blades in the 80’s but I don’t think they were Jimmy Lile’s or anything like that .
( I would die if I ever found out that I actually had one of his and sold it ).
But I highly doubt it .
I don’t think I ever spent more than $20 on the ones I had back then haha .
Anyway so glad you watched the KISS BETH video .
Didn’t have the right makeup or anything that day .... was just having fun with my granddaughter and put it all together in about 30 minutes .
My son in law was there to help haha .
I’d like to do that one better too one of these days .
I’m not getting any younger so nows the time !!
Had one idiot say “ why would you choose Peter Criss “???!!!!
And I just replied “ cause I’d look pretty stupid singing Beth dressed up as Gene “!!
Haha
Great Song !! One of my favorites still .
Sentimental bro ...... sentimental.
Nice chatting .
Catch up soon again .
Stay Cool as Always 😎
@@tubes5150 great hearing from u Cowboy, I’m about 2 hours or so, from Nashville, in Memphis. Been in bands, my whole life, practically, until the CoV, guest singers, guitar players, etc always turn out ok, even when they don’t, lol. I don’t have any gigs, on the horizon, but I know a couple bands that do, around town, I’m sure they would let u sit in. I’m sure it would turn out fantastic too, it’s Memphis, it’s the blues, but I’m sure u would fit right in!

Love connecting with a fellow artist .
Most people on here think C Bop is just a knife guy haha .
Boy if they only knew .......
So many years of live shows - studio work and guest appearances.
Are you ready for one of the highlights of my rock and roll career ?????
My wife and I , and my lead singer at the time along with his wife , well we all went to the city to watch Slash “ Slash’s Snakepit “, back in like 2000 / 2001 .
We were front row .
They didn’t play any Guns and Roses tunes and it was still awesome .
And then the encore starts .
Guess who they picked out of the audience to come sing “ Mr Brownstone “?????
Yup !
Your talking to him right now haha .
Unplanned - Unrehearsed- Sheer Random ness !!!
Luckily I knew all the words .
That was a thrill of a lifetime!!
It’s a shame RUclips didn’t exist !
It’s a shame no one had a camera phone .
Remember the days when all that stuff would be confiscated at the door ????
Miss those days !!
Now you go see a great band - and the next day there are 100 clips of the night on RUclips .
I’d love to get a hold of that evening with Slash !!
On our way home , I think I was in just shock .
My wife kept saying “ did that really just happen “??????
And my poor old lead singer haha haha ( he has the really long hair with the scarves and a bunch of rings on his fingers etc etc )....
Well he wanted to know why he wasn’t chosen .
I think he was a little bitter .
Probably still pissed off after all these years haha .
There were other memorable events in my life but That one stands out due to the unexpected.
Did not see that coming !!!
Be good brother and Rock On 🤘

Feel bad asking .
I’m looking for a durable combat knife what do you recommend,thanks
Elijah Dimke Great question .
Let me think about when I get a chance .
I’ll get back to you ASAP 🤠
You have any decision preferably a Bowie
Thanks for getting back to me .
I’m still thinking about what I would recommend ( out of my own experience).
I am thinking the USMC KABAR ( although I prefer the USN version .... same thing ).
I like the Gerber Strong Arm too .
I am also a SOG Seal Pup fan . ( have that already attached to my “ Bug Out Bag “ just like Mark Wahlberg had when he portrayed Marcus Latrell in “ Lone Survivor “ ).
And finally- I am a SOG 2.0 Bowie fan .
That is absolutely the best looking out of them all .
High quality - just FLAWLESS .
( you know I like my movie knives ..... I spotted the SOG 2.0 Bowie in Terminator 2 ).
Yeah .
I would recommend the 2.0 .
( I’m certain their are better - stronger combat knives out there , but it all depends on what YOU are into ).
The 2.0 comes in a very nice high quality black leather sheath too .
It’s one of those knives , that you are afraid to use because you don’t want to mark up it’s beauty .
But it is very useable!!
I take good care of mine and rarely use I must admit .
But it’s there just in case .
I hope this helps and let me know what you decide .
Stay safe as always 🤠
I ended up getting a custom stag Bowie knife
Elijah Dimke There you go !!
I think that a custom Stag is an excellent choice ( I had a few custom made ).
I actually have one that I paid for like 3 months ago that has yet to arrive ( damn virus is screwing up everything).
Let me know when yours arrives .

But yea rocky I really got I to that then Rambo I'm 46 still don't have a Rambo well big knife I've had few small ones. The knife with the compass and line hooks matches that good stuff inside I had few cheaper ones role a few bigger cheaper ones. Lol but yea wish ide got into the Rambo and got some back when I was younger and working. But at 18 well my birthday all mine were stolen had a box full of them I was in Alabama had left mich month early left home to work and got hurt ended up on crutches living in my truck for month or 3. Lol. But I quit collecting for whole due to that. Then finally started again and I was 40 I think had over 300 stolen and almost 200 I was selling lost alot. So I don't buy like I used to till Raven got there 10 dollar knife a month for year and 10 then they quit. Wish they went 2 more months. But for 17 with shipping I got some nice knifes. But think it's time to sell and keep my fav and use the money to buy me something nice. Maybe a Rambo or gro. Lol. But sorry said to much again.

Stefan Klaus That is So Freakin Awesome !!!!!!
Ya know , I was doing some New Knife searches yesterday , and I gotta say - I think I’m done ✅.
It’s going to be so hard to try and find a nice big blade , for a fairly decent price , that would be as nice as the “ Plan A “.
Although there are still a few on my wish list that Soooo Many People Already Have - I try to find that “ diamond in the rough “ . Ya know what I mean ?
A great knife - at a great buy .
I don’t like over rated knives ( the ones that are overly priced just because of their name brand ).
You ever see those knives that are selling for over $300 ??
Sometimes I wonder .
If I’m going to spend that kind of dough on a knife , it better be something special .
And don’t get me started on those that cost $1200 and more !!
WOW !!
I saw the Rambo 2 knife ( that was used in the film ), on sale for $35 K !!
( but they make it easy for you if you want the layaway plan -- only $11K down payment ).
Hahahaha
“ I’ll take 2 “!!
Stay safe as always my brother and I’ll talk to you soon 🤠
Cowboy C Bop well Sir I’m the kind of guy who does not care much about the price if a knife falls into my wishlist I do anything I can to have it! It may take some time but I will get it sooner or later so I have knifes that are worth 200, 400 Dollars 😂yes I’m a knife adict and I’m guilty of that I’m sure the next knife catches your eyes and your keep going to be an inspiration for us knife adicts😊stay save ,stay healthy and god allway bless you❤️
Stefan Klaus Stay Safe as Always- My Brother of the Blade haha 🤠( love Steel Art )❤️🔪❤️
It's definitely possible that the inspiration for the Heart Stopper was the Assault but really both of these designs are throw backs to the original Bob Loveless Sub-hilt Big Bear.
They are definitely not as close to the original design as the Cold Steel Black Bear Classic but definitely close.
Awesome Design and awesome collection Bro!
Ngrave Phenom Thank you so much for watching and commenting.
Definitely agree with you ( just a little observation I made ).
Yeah I know that there are similar designs out there and all but I absolutely think that Pohl was inspired by Hibben ( if I had to just choose one ).
After all , he is the Rambo / Expendables movie knife guy haha .
Again - I sincerely appreciated you watching.
Stay safe as always 🤠
coincidence.my first blood knife has a bike peg for a handle.also.travolta was supposed to be rambos partner in rambo 2.novel of part 2 is alot different than the movie.my heartstoppers guard is a bit different than original.hardest part to make was the guard.ive got the vhs of the rambo cartoon and the action figure.had the big ass m60 rambo toy gun too.they had a playset that came with the knife and a watch and his buddha necklace.great video brother.be safe too
wnerk o That’s right !!
I remember that now ( the bike handle on your First Blood knife ).
I said “ that was genius “!! Hahaha
2 Great minds ........
I have 2 of those cheap Buddha necklaces ( had to replace the cheap wire with a thin - strong leather string ).
Hopefully I won’t lose this one as I did in the past .

Nice knives.

Happy New Year and Thanks so much for watching 🤠🙏❤️🔪🎵🍾🇺🇸
Good Rambo knifes
MrSzomszid Thanks so much 🤠
Cowboy I was just thinking. In Last Blood Rambo is not shown making the MK-8 or MK-9 knife. Actually the MK-8 is shown hanging from the wall next to the part 4 machete before Gabrielle even went to Mexico. The MK-9 is first shown when he is sharpening wood stakes for a booby trap in the preparing for war sequence. So I'm assuming the MK-9 heart stopper like the MK-8 was already made before all this went down. The only knife it showed him making was the letter opener knife for Gabrielle.
Ricky King You are absolutely correct my friend .🤠
yess KISS,,, the very best band on the planet! solar systems and other galaxies
The C bop documentary! ! !
Part Too Comin'?
PaseOh Hahaha
Yup !!
Need a few more days ( I’m waiting for something really special to arrive in the mail to include in the next Stallone / Hibben Salute ).
Right on
Cowboy, I don't know if you're aware that on that picture of Elvis and Gill, the tall man standing next to Elvis was non other than Master Ed Parker himself! Ed Parker is the inventor of the American style of Kenpo Karate as it exists today!!! He was also Elvis Presley's personal instructor. And btw, Ed Parker did not "give" Elvis his black belt. Elvis "earned" it which in American Kenpo, is NO easy task... You sir, have a very RARE picture there indeed!!!
That is just nuts !!
5 minutes ago I sent you a couple links .
You are going to love them !!!
Just so funny that you brought this up haha .
( you’ll see )
Look on the Stallone auction results to see what those Arizona Bowies went for (12.8 and 6400 respectively. The Lile #1 sold for 128k! I deleted our original conversation due to the subject.
No problem- I do the same sometimes .
Yes I was sent a brief run down on the auction .
Maybe he should of sent some of that dough over to Gil ???? ( especially for the Arizona ).
Again … it was a prototype and I think he was supposed to return that to Gil .
But I could be wrong 😑
@@tubes5150 The whole thing is kind of disappointing. I have an idea for a new Rambo too: A prequel to First Blood but make it all about Delmar Berry and make Berry more badass than Rambo and Rambo kind of an ancillary character. Call it Rambo too, First Blood: The Prequel.
@@Rhythmicons I like the way you think my brother …..
That would be Huge !!!!!!!
You can tell that John J looked up to Delmar ….. Big Time !!!
I had thought of the prequel too with Delmar but I didn’t really think about how much John admired him .
I’ll bet he was kicking some serious ass and taking names -- and saved Rambos life on more than one occasion.
Yeah - I like the way you think !!
Now who would play who ??
Your a bit younger then me but not enough that any experience would be different I had 6million dollar man doll an gi joe king fu grip an I had a gi joe before ge was adventure team back when you pulled the string he said round op the Japanese troops an I can't remember but it was a big deal. Remember the drive in movies an the arcades good times to be a kid
ScalpingYour TP 🎵🎵” Memories “🎵🎵
Yeah I remember my GI Joe with the string ( I still remember what one of them said haha - I still say that phrase all the time ).
Every time I say it , I still get a laugh out of my wife and she has NO idea of what I’m even talking about !!
The phrase was :
“ JOE - I HAVE A TUFF ASSIGNMENT FOR YOU “!!
( gotta say it like you mean business) haha.
You are so right on - could talk about our childhood games for ever .
All was good ( until video games took over ).

I was a senior in highschool in 76. I remember all that stuff, lol. You have one hell of a collection bro.
btw..I wasn't born in Philly, but I lived there for 18 years while I worked at the Philly airport for USAir. Lot's of great memories from those years. I really miss the food..especially the bread. You can't get a decent hoagie roll anywhere once you move away from there. I'd give most anything for a good Primos Italian hoagie, and a I'd double that for a Nick's roast beef. I miss the cheesesteaks too, but a Nick's roast beef..man, if only they could deliver to NY, lol.
Timbo437 Nicks Roast Beef !!!!!!
That was my fathers ( R.I.P. ) all time Philly place !!
Now I’m going to be craving that for days now ( wonder if they have take out available)?????
Had a Primo 2 nights ago ( funny you should bring that up ).
I had the “ Swartzie “ roast beef but it tasted like corn beef ( I think they made a mistake but it was still good ).
Thank you for being here and taking a trip down memory lane .
My sister in law was a 76 grad - and she loves watching “ Dazed and Confused “.
( she says that was what it was like in 76 ).
I think the movie “ Detroit Rock City “ was more like My time frame .
Hilarious!!!!
Thanks for watching and keep safe as always 🤠
@@tubes5150 It's been about 10 or 11 years since I lived there, but at least back then, yes, they have take out. We used to send somebody over from the airport to pick up our orders. I was told that they went through about 2700 rolls on a Friday, and believe me, the place is very small, no way could that many people fit in a week, let alone a day, lol. I used to like to sit at the bar, eat a sammich or 2, and play the ponies. They had a guy there who would take our bets. I miss those days.
Timbo437 You might of seen my father there at some point in time .
His best friend would go there often -- and if they could bet the ponies while having a delicious RB - they surely would have Hahahaha .
I’m just so thankful that Nicks is still there .
Speaking of the airport - my wife works night shift right next door ( post office ).
On her way home this morning , she was rear ended .
Yup !!!
So dealing with that BS right now .
( waiting on a call back from the insurance company to see what our next step is ).
Thank God no one was hurt .
( it’s our brand new car and this is twice now it got rear ended ).
Arrrrrgggggghhhhhh
@@tubes5150 Sorry to hear that mate! I've been to the airport PO to many times to count. I can't tell you how may carts full of mail I've loaded into the bins of aircraft. 18 years is a long time, and those carts of mail just kept coming, specially around the holidays.
Timbo437 I’m having Flashbacks!!!
Hahahaha
I spent 16 years as a mail handler at the Devon post office .
It never stops !! Even on a holiday - everyone is closed so you think “ No Mail - should be an easy night “......
Nope !!
We still got hammered !!
( but at least the time went by fast - before you knew it , it was time to ALMOST clock off .
Then the supervisor would walk over and politely say the words “ 4 hours mandatory overtime “.
Flashbacks !!
During your research on the Rambo knives you may have stumbled across this. Here's the website that covers pretty much the complete history of the Rambo knives.

ArkansasCatfisherman Oh yes ... I did see that quite a few times .
That is like the best history write up on the Knives .
Talks about the prototypes to the finished product .
Thanks for watching .
Keep safe as always 🤠
Have to tell you I like Rambo , but can't be that loner. I could grub around there in the dirt for a while, and have, but it ain't where I prefer. I'm an Expendable guy. And if you want to write a new story as Barney, go ahead because, I already have a spot. From day one I am Christmas, and may be bringing you the worst holiday you ever had. The first time I saw Jason I went back to see if I had seen everything in his career and it was worth it.. I also have the official set of Kunai Throwers. After testing them I put them away, they are designed to gut a fish but thrown once too often will break. Having been expendable as are all USA and USMC guys, the one on the left and the one on the right are #1 in your line of vision and nothing else matters. Best Wishes
John Bullen I Love This !!
“ I’m going to bring you the worst holiday you ever had “!
I’m putting that in the script haha .
I had a feeling you were more “ Expendables “ - rather than “ Rambo “.
I need a few more days so I can do my Part 2 and start getting into the “ Expendables “ blade collection .
Stay safe as always 🤠
John Bullen You had me thinking of what character I would most identify with in “ Expendables “.
Probably the Mickey Rourke character in all honesty .
Few reasons :
He is an emotional wreck ( has some PTSD from his former horrific events that he is having a hard time getting over ), and his love for tattoos , likes to hit on that awesome pipe ( I have the same one ), his fondness for Motorcycles and beautiful women , and of course , his Cold Steel Espada ( one of my favorite blades in my collection).
The Warner weather is slowly approaching us here in Pa , so that will give me some practice time on knife throwing . ( still can’t wait to give the ones you sent me a toss or two - although I like to treasure them as is because they are from you , I don’t want to mark them up ).
But yeah -- The Mickey Rourke character I think I most identify with .
Keep safe as always 🤠❤️🙏🔪🎵
ya, yyyyyy? weon fooooome
A little more light to the the knives better
