The "Rambo" knife has  become so widely known that almost any large survival or bowie knife is often  referred to as a Rambo knife. In the movies, Rambo's other weapon of choice is  his bow, sometimes used with exploding arrows. Rambo's bow  really became popular after the movie "Rambo II" was released in 1985. Stallone  had a custom built Hoyt Spectra bow with glass limbs  and Omega wheels, which transfer the cables laterally during the power stroke,  obviating the need for a cable guard. Hoyt/Easton later released a commercially available bow package based on the Spectra model (which included  the Streamlight flashlight stabilizer, a custom "survival knife" with compass  and necessities kit, take down arrows made by Easton, and a few other odds and  ends including a rather well-thought out backpack for the whole thing) used  laminated limbs and normal wheels, with a cable guard.   <img src="http://www.cartertown.com/images/Knives/Rambo/HECU1.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://www.cartertown.com/images/Knives/Rambo/RamboBow1.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://www.cartertown.com/images/Knives/Rambo/HECU2.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://www.cartertown.com/images/Knives/Rambo/HECU3.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> For Rambo III Stallone used a Hoyt ProVantage with a  90 lb. pull. It is all I can do to draw this one back. I was told that they  wanted a hard pull to accentuate Stallone's flexing muscles.   <img src="http://www.cartertown.com/images/Knives/Rambo/HoytCU1.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://www.cartertown.com/images/Knives/Rambo/RamboBows2.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> In the new movie "Rambo" , Stallone reportedly used  a Hoyt Matrix and a Hoyt Gamemaster in the film. He requested the Gamemaster at  70# and traded for 50# limbs after a few weeks. This apparently has to do with  the fact that he's expected to remain at full draw for unreasonable lengths of  time during the filming process. I have read that the "exploding tips" were  actually the "Razorbak  5" broadheads in their protective plastic covers and painted gold. <img src="http://www.cartertown.com/images/Knives/Rambo/RIIIMovieArrow.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> Rambo III Screen Shot <img src="http://www.cartertown.com/images/Knives/Rambo/ArrowHeadsLR.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://www.cartertown.com/images/Knives/Rambo/RamboComesHome3.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /> <img src="http://www.cartertown.com/images/Knives/Rambo/RamboComesHome2.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></blockquote>
