The tie was another wink to Indiana Jones I think as Indy wore a tie on his Indy-outfit in the Last Crusade for a big part of the movie.

I think the poison that was used was applied to this knife, passed to the mutton when it was cut and then activated by the wine. - MacGyver.

The swinging blade could also be a nod to Indiana Jones. When Indy was making his way to the Grail Knight, the first obstacle he encountered were two spinning blades intended to cut his head off and/or cut him in half. I'm not saying that the Indiana Jones series created this device, it's been around for centuries, it's simply another similarity Mac and Indy have in Common.

As for the tie...I thought it might be related to Indiana Jones which is fine. I also thought that, since Mac usually dresses appropriately for different situations even if he doesn't like it, he wore it for the flight over and never got the chance to change. Also, I noticed that from the beginning, the knot is a bit lose...and gets looser. Might help with the comfort factor.

The white shirt and the red tie... Must've been like the worst outfit he wore. You know, Mac and ties... also the tie switches positions while under the pendulum.
