Buffy The Vampire Slayer Faith's Foam Knife Cosplay Replica

This foam knife is a faithful replica of the distinctive dagger used by the rogue Slayer, Faith Lehane, in Buffy The Vampire Slayer. In the series, this prop is modelled after the real-world Gil Hibben Jackal knife design, which Faith famously received from Mayor Wilkins and called a "thing of beauty."

The knife features a modified dagger blade that is long and slender. A key characteristic of its design is the unique central cut-out or gap near the hilt, giving the knife a very recognizable and somewhat tactical appearance. The foam replica successfully captures this blade shape, including the central opening, despite being constructed from soft, convention-safe foam.

The prop’s design includes a prominent, curved stainless steel guard (replicated in foam) that curves back toward the handle. The handle itself is typically ergonomic, with grooves or texture designed to look tough and provide a firm grip.
