No, after some thought, I've changed mine. I've seen some Segal and Bourne movies, as well as Hunted-after mentally reviewing the knife-fight scenes, I'm gonna have to agree with you; on comparison, the Hunted scenes were more plausible.

I'm sure they included the scene were Che throws his (only?) blade underhanded into a 3 -inch sapling to frighten two deer hunters armed with bolt action long guns for cinematic effect. True, I've never personally heard of a soldier being sent to kill a key enemy commander by sneaking up and sticking a knife in his throat instead of shooting him-maybe with a gun with a can on the barrel?- but I'm relatively inexperienced when it comes to high-speed secret assassin techniques, so I'll have to acquiesce regarding that scene relative to Segal and Bourne stuff.
