You really don't get much of a chance to see it so I couldn't get a screenshot, but towards the end when Jason Statham is setting up traps for the final battle you see him snap open a blade that looks very much like a Skeletool or Freestyle blade.

Well, unless there's a freestyle model/variation with black handle I guess it was a Skeletool, probably the CX (if that's the only Skele with black handles). Gotcha these pics





I didn't really enjoy the movie and liked the previous ones much better. So sad, Statham!  >:(

Also, as a comment, I believe the Skele is one of the most used MTs in modern TV, films and shows. I guess it's because of its looks, but in the last years I spotted it on the movie Oblivion (Tom Cruise), XXX: The return of Xander Cage (Vin Diesel), ...

It was a typical Jason Statham movie- if you like his grunting martial arts fighting, shooting, swimming and driving while being remarkably cool no matter what happens then you'll probably like it too.

But, it could just as easily have been another Transporter sequel, or Parker II, or a spinoff of his character from the Expendables.  They are all largely the same.

Snatch is one of my favourite movies. That and The Princess Bride.

Guy Ritchie was on Joe Rogans podcast last week.

I just saw the movie yesterday and noticed that Skele blade too. Came here to check and it seems we all have the same keen eye for even a millisecond glimpse of a multitool to catch our attention. :)

I also noticed him tying a clove hitch knot a few seconds after that to rig a granate to a door.
