Dario's (Benicio del Toro) knife from John Glen's Bond movie Licence to Kill. Dario hid his knife in his jacket sleeve and used it to kill people on the orders of drug lord Franz Sanchez (Robert Davi). Among those stabbed by Dario were Felix Leiter's (David Hedison) bride Della Churchill (Priscilla Barnes) and Alvarez (Gerardo Albarrán), the lover of Sanchez's girlfriend, Lupe Lamora (Talisa Soto).

The knife has a circular steel pommel; a black plastic handle with an ergonomic grip; a steel cross guard; and a fixed steel blade with a spear point. At the base of the blade are the words "BLACK PANTHER SOLINGEN GERMANY", with "#064" on the reverse side. There are several rust spots on the blade.

Dimensions: 28 cm x 5 cm x 1 cm (11" x 2" x 1/2")

From the personal collection of Peter Nelson, previously displayed at his two museums, "The Cars of the Stars" and "The Bond Museum" in Keswick, Cumbria, until they closed in 2011.

Estimate: £800 - 1,200 M
