	The knife used by Matrix is called the Life Support System I (or LS-1, for short) and was custom-made by late knife-maker Jack Crain. Apparently, Arnold saw one and liked it so much that he wanted it featured in the movie. I have a good picture of the knife itself (or at least a replica) that can be used on the page if somebody can get a couple high-def pics of it from the movie. Preferred would be A) one of him picking it up in the surplus store and B) one of him holding it while goading Bennett into a knife fight.

			==Extended Cut==
			There's apparently an extended cut of the movie on Amazon, but it's not included with Prime and I can't buy or rent it since the account I'm using is my sister's. Has anyone seen this version? If so, how does it differ from the version (I assume theatrical) that this page was screencapped using? [[User:Spartan198\|Spartan198]] ([[User talk:Spartan198\|talk]]) 14:10, 6 September 2020 (EDT)
