What's this knife?

[Cujo]

Looks mighty cool.
Anyone knows if it is based on real knife? And if it is, what's the name of this beauty?

It sorta helps to, you know, post a screenshot?

 

[Cujo]

Sigh... I assumed everybody knows how it looks like by now.
Well, here it is:

it's modeled from a real Knife, yes. That are custom made. Sorry I do no remember any of the details but I am 100% positive it's from a real nice because they had pictures of the acutal knife when it was first added to CS.

 

[Cujo]

Pictures like this?

Valve released a pdf file at the start of 1.6 about the knife, maybe I can find it.

 

[John Romero]

its called a kbar, navy seals use em. made from titanium or something.

 

[wonkers]

I thought it was carbon steel.

 

[Cujo]

Nah, it's not kbar. I have checked all kinds of kbars and not one of 'em even slightly looks like this one.

Switch, if u could please...

i liked the knife in cs:cz better its the same knife but how he holds it looks cooler

 

[Gray Fox]

I looked at csbanana, and there they call it the "bowie knive", but i searched google and i can't find it, but like with all the weapons in cs maybe they just made it a little different than the real knife so they wouldn't have to pay licensing fee to the makers.

It's not a bowie knife, these are bowies:
