@@lowqualityyoru2451 calm down not everyone can “handle” such puns. Some say it can even be crime! Besides not everyone one makes the “cut”, so don’t “beat” yourself up for it. Seriously, y’all gonna “murder” me
Curious, what's the safety protocol with these? What checks are there to make sure an actor isn't given a sharp knife instead of a retractable or rubber one or whatever? Just the propmaster? Do the actors check too?
I mean, I'm no expert or anything, but since they're not guns literally anybody given the knife can probably tell. Because a real knife would actually have some heft to it, unlike a rubber knife. Also, you could easily just touch the tip and see if it's actually capable of piercing. With guns however I doubt a majority of actors know how to check those..
@@vinneythe14th68 Içd imagine the rubber knife would be a lot heavier in the blade end because it's more mass there than a normal knife, at least if you were handling then all in succession
Yes, and people have gotten hurt that way. Retractables should be avoided if at all possible in favor of safer alternatives like CG (in film) or blocking (in theatre).
My brother has a retractable. Or well, a cheap two euro version or something he got ages ago. I have no idea how well the actual things work (or how dangerous they are), but that one had the tendency to jam at every fifth try or so. Quite a painful surprise when someone jabs a hard, pointy plastic object at you thinking it'll retract, only for it to jam. I remember that this thing caused quite a lot of bruises.
People have died from being stabbed by retractable blades on stage. They are not safe and should not be used. As the first commenter on here said, blocking is more than enough to sell the illusion. I've been part of many stage fights and choreographed many, and never once has it been necessary to use a retractable blade
@Mann Person i know of an actor in Strafford who suffered a collapsed lung from being stabbed between the ribs by one. Fairly certain he bled out and died
It’s really cool to see things like that and how movie magic can make it look realistic on screen, because the retractable ones for example don’t look particularly believable.
There’s certainly a lot that can be done both on set and in post to movie magic - sometimes the angles or framing are adjusted so you can’t quite see the fine details of the retractable. I’ve seen it done in silhouette before, and even in post a whole different knife plastered on top. There’s also some very high quality retractables (like the one at the end which goes into the handle) which look super convincing - there’s so many fine details from so many different departments in film - insanely impressive when it all comes together
I wish I could *_cut_* these "jokes" out of my mind. Seriously, I would go *_under the knife_* to get these awful, *_pointed_* puns surgically removed from my brain. Seriously, they just don't *_make the cut._*
i can see that being a prop master makes it hard to cut out these types of jokes. on the other hand you are cut out for this type of work. so props to you
I’m guessing they might need a real knife that’s identical, if for example the character is preparing food on screen, then stabs another character. It wouldn’t make sense if the knife changed Definitely extremely dangerous though, I wonder what safety checks are in place?
no matter how you slice it, you’re a cut above others. i’d prefer the rubber knife over any of the others: i’d rather not take chances with any breaking points or retracting cavities. i can see the need for the real knives in closeups but unless the actor wears a metal plate like the last one i’m going to go with rubber over retractable ones
I'm wondering the same. With how similar they look, are knives treated similar to guns, where you need to carefully control their release/use? e.g. what happened if you had a scene where you expected a dull knife but the actor was handed a sharp one by mistake.
I like that the retractable knife in the second kit is kept in a completely different configuration than all the other knifes: just cuts down on the chances of accidentally grabbing the wrong one.
Thanks for making these videos, I’d stab myself if I didn’t get a slice of these videos into my brain every once in a while. I love how you cut right to the chase and don’t drag it along for too long.
In my experience on making college theatre's props, I tried to do a makeshift retractable knifes using cardboard with metallic paint. It convince everyone who saw the performance.😂
The "Bleeder" one, I ALWAYS knew that's how they done those scenes where the character slices open the palm of his own hand. To me it's always been so obvious that there was something on the knife itself that was putting the fake blood onto their hand rather then something on their hand.
Man I love these CZcams shorts! I can watch videos like this and learn all about knives without the fluff in videos. What I'm trying to say is I absolutely love how to the point you are
I was waiting for the pun and it was so abrupt and perfectly timed.
I almost said the same thing.
The pun was also very sharp as well
It was a bit straight to the point though wasnt it
He always cuts right to the chase at the end
Oh stop it stop it
Haven’t seen this kit before. Thanks for taking a stab at it.
Cut it out
@@nothosaur such sharp words…
@@williamjackson8782 I got to the point.
@@nothosaur yeah, you’re good at cutting to the chase.

The stab to my heart when you touched the dulled blade-
It did me a stress also
It really cuts the illusion

They say you can't bring a knife to a gun fight. But what if they're both props?
Prop knife beats prop gun. Unless the armourer is completely incompetent, in which case you’re getting shot.
@@barnabro damn shots fired
@@solaire67 damn knifes stabbing
In this case, Alec Baldwin wins

Using real knives would not be a very sharp idea.
Thank you for your contribution, Sherlock.
@@user-ov2fc5sd1e that went over your head I guess, kinda you're kinda dull

I think it would actually be very sharp though.
Maybe a bit dull.

Of slice
A SLICE of the action!
Curious, what's the safety protocol with these?
What checks are there to make sure an actor isn't given a sharp knife instead of a retractable or rubber one or whatever? Just the propmaster? Do the actors check too?
depends on whether or not the actor is alec baldwin, he doesn't even check if it's a real gun

"This one makes your victim bleed"
So does a regular knife
You know, when you said "here's a bleeder. It'll make your victim bleed." I thought to myself, 'you know, I've got several of those.' Lol
Ok that Cut joke was great! Always wondered how knives bleed or how they stick in an actors chest! So cool!
Do the retractables (be it knives, or syringes) ever jam? I imagine they're inspected regularly.
Yes, and people have gotten hurt that way. Retractables should be avoided if at all possible in favor of safer alternatives like CG (in film) or blocking (in theatre).
He said in another video he doesn't use them for that reason.

I think we all saw that pun coming. That was sharp.
i was like "Where is the dad joke?" Untill i realized
I bought a retractable knife when I was a kid (came from a “magic” store). Long story short, my brother and I gave our mom a heart attack.
the best is when the retractable part jams. have had that happen before.
Me too. Bought one from dollarama and scared everyone with it
Bro what would happen if u mixed it up with a real one
That’s nostalgia

It’s a second rubber knife
@@ScottPropandRoll 😴 💤 🛏 😪 🛌
Props to this man for not making and dull jokes
I feel like it's very dangerous that the kit comes with sharp knives that looks exactly the same as the rubber ones.
I’m guessing they might need a real knife that’s identical, if for example the character is preparing food on screen, then stabs another character. It wouldn’t make sense if the knife changed
Definitely extremely dangerous though, I wonder what safety checks are in place?
@@iSchmidty13 Or just for if there's a close-up shot of an actor holding the knife. The real blade probably looks better in close up.
That's some really sharp humor there.
No dull content here, just the usual sharp wit. These videos are the cutting edge.
Almost couldn't HANDLE that pun lmao
Bloody brilliant
Man I love this stuff. Whoever said that you don’t want to see behind the magician’s curtain was wrong!
You took a stab at that pun, and it stuck.

Joke: remember, if you’re going to penetrate, use a rubber. I’m sorry.
What's the point of the inbetween "sharp" and "dull"?
To cut something slowly?
I'm wondering the same. With how similar they look, are knives treated similar to guns, where you need to carefully control their release/use? e.g. what happened if you had a scene where you expected a dull knife but the actor was handed a sharp one by mistake.
