Jaguar Paw's (Rudy Youngblood) stunt knife with a Mayan ceremonial rattle and four stunt knives from Mel Gibson's Apocalypto. Jaguar Paw wielded his signature knife while hunting a tapir with his father Flint Sky (Morris Birdyellowhead) and other men in their tribe. Later, Jaguar Paw encountered Mayans carrying ceremonial instruments and rods throughout the Yucatan.

This lot consists of a dense rubber stunt knife with a handle ornately painted to appear hand-carved with Mayan symbols; a wooden rattle painted red, black, and yellow to resemble a gourd, a common implement in real-world Meso-American tools of the era depicted in the film; and four additional wood, rubber, and foam stunt knives of distinctive styles and paint finishes, including one textured to resemble obsidian and applied with dotted markings and another with a hooked handle. The set exhibits chipping paint, bent blades, and glue residue from production use. Dimensions: (largest) 11.5" x 1.75" x 1.5" (29.25 cm x 4.5 cm x 4 cm)

Estimate: $400 - 800
