After Earth, Kitai Raige's Cutless

original movie prop

A crash landing leaves Kitai Raige (Jaden Smith) and his father Cypher Raige (Will Smith) stranded on Earth, a millennium after events forced humanity's escape. With Cypher injured, Kitai must embark on a perilous journey to signal for help. This is Kitai’s hero cutlass weapon used and seen on screen throughout the 2013 film After Earth. The cutlass is the Ranger’s greatest weapon; an extension of the strength that comes from within. The lightweight, handheld weapon is both versatile and elegant, using hundreds of metal fibers to form numerous weapon configurations from both end of the handle. Used in attack, self-defense and survival conditons, the Cutlass blends seamlessly into a Ranger’s biosuit and can be activated with quick finger inputs on the handle. The C-40 combat model has a total of 22 configurations, including short blade, spear, long blade, sickle, dagger and more. “The Cutlass is a Ranger’s primary weapon against our Alien enemies.”
