The Major Props Saw's Producers Took From The Set

Once you think it's out of commission, the reverse bear trap comes back in full force. The trap made its first appearance in the original "Saw" and was used to introduce the character of Amanda (Shawnee Smith.) Amanda became an acolyte of Kramer's after escaping the infamous trap that does exactly what you would imagine. The trap was on a timer, and Amanda had to find the key before it went off and literally ripped her face apart. Viewers would see the trap come back twice more in the later films, including when Jill Tuck attempted to get rid of Jigsaw's copycat, the "Saw" villain Detective Hoffman. 

In a Reddit AMA, "Saw" producer Oren Koules revealed that he kept the original reverse bear trap, which weighs about 15 pounds. He added that since he kept the original, when the trap was brought back for the later films, they had to recreate it out of aluminum. One can only wonder where the producer is putting the method of torture on display.
