Jason Voorhees' (Derek Mears) hero machete from Marcus Nispel's horror reboot Friday the 13th. This lot comes from the personal collection of Friday the 13th collector and historian Mario Kirner. Jason carried his machete throughout the film and used it to kill his victims, including to stab Trent (Travis Van Winkle) and, in the climactic fight, by Whitney Miller (Amanda Righetti) to stab Jason.

This aluminum machete has been coated with a black finish and rust to show wear. The wooden handle features dual metal screws and is wrapped in leather and burlap straps. The machete is one of 17 made for the production, of which eight survive, with prop master Koen Wooten confirming it was the main machete used on the camp location. The lot exhibits signs of wear commensurate with its age and production use, including staining. Dimensions: 36" x 3" x 1.25" (91 cm x 8 cm x 3 cm)

This lot comes from the Friday the 13th Props Museum collection of Mario Kirner. The Museum was created as a private collection that showcased not only Jason's iconic hockey mask, but also a number of other movie props, costumes and additional materials that were used during the production of the Friday the 13th movies.

An avid contributor in the screen-used prop and costume collecting field for more than 20 years, Mario Kirner has been a dedicated in his work and efforts to help to transform what was once a niche hobby into an popular culture phenomenon. Mario is not just a collector, but a true historian and curator of all things Jason Voorhees and Friday the 13th, also publishing a book dedicated to showcasing the museum's content and their stories.

Estimate: $7,000 - 14,000
