It's a Victorinox Soldier SAK.

Thanks. Even though their propmaster has poor taste and uses substandard knives, it's a pretty good show. I've found it better to turn on subtitles because the actors are native speakers of a language I can barely understand.

As ladybug93 said, Victorinox knives are NOT substandard. I don't buy no substandard knives!

After Spyderco, the most knives I own from any other company are made by Victorinox. They don't use 'supersteels', but they are excellent, have the most consistent QC of any knife manufacturer (considering the number of knives they produce per day), and have proven their usefulness over a long span of time.

2022 - Uncharted w/Mark Wahlberg. Not sure what model it is, but will rewind later and update this post. Looked similar to a 'Stretch'.

From The Martian. When Matt Damon is slicing up his Mars potatoes. Looks Spyderco-ish. Maybe not. I don't recognize it. Handle is too puffy.

I'd say that's a Victorinox Hunter Pro:

While watching "Rampage" for the Nth time, I suddenly noticed the bandolier of grenades Dwayne Johnson pulled out of the humvee has a Spyderco Euroedge clipped to it above the grenades. Don't know how I missed it before.

I had to look it up.
It's quite ironic how a knife model designed to reflect and appreciate European knife culture and traditions of the craft, would probably get you arrested in most European countries today.

It is.

Had this knife myself - well made, with a really nice wooden handle, but also a pretty bad blade geometry for cutting.

Not really sure what this little gem is in the new Woody Woodpecker movie on Netflix but it’s got to be one of Sal’s designs!

That actually looks like a Victorinox Soldier with different handle scales. Or a Chinese knockoff of a Vic Soldier. You can even see the Phillips screwdriver on the back of the knife.

Looks like an AI rendered movie !
Nothing seems real in this, isn't it a simple 3D rendering of a folding knife someone (or something) made on his computer ?

Yes, but look at the general design, then Google the current Victorinox Soldier SAK. Except for the “scales,” it is virtually identical. So even if it is a 3D rendering, it is based on a real knife design, either a Victorinox Soldier, or some Chinese knockoff.

Didn't see this one.

Numb3rs, High Exposure. Start of the episode when the bad guy cuts a climber loose. Best guess is a Police or Military.
