The knife Jim Bowie carried has been lost to history. We can deduce from available information what the knife probably looked like but we will never know for certain what happened to the knife he carried. Jim Bowie apparently died in his room and this makes it likely that the knife was picked up by some one whose name has been lost to history. The knife was of good quality so it would not likely been thrown away.

Davey Crockett and Jim Bowie were probably the most famous of those who died there.
James Black, a blacksmith, created the bowie knife for Jim Bowie himself. After Jim died at the alamo, everyone said they wanted "Jim Bowie's knife." So James started to make them behind his leather curtain, keeping the process from everyone, even though on his deathbed he wanted to share the process with a friend, but couldn't remember how he made it. To sum everything up, No. Jim Bowie used the knife that James Black made, and the knife became popular after Bowie's death at the Alamo. Bowie fanatics (including me) love the knives, and feel like it is an amazing part of Texan history. Bowie's heroism caused the knife to become well known across the country, and that is why the name is the "Bowie knife," because it was the knife Jim used the most.

Jim Bowie was a Texas land developer. He also designed an extremely useful large multipurpose knife. The tip could serve for close work while the rear part performed heavy duty tasks. He was one of 80 Texans at the Alamo fortress in San Antonio, Texas. General Santa Anna, invaded Texas with 10,000 men and set up a siege of the Alamo. The men in the Alamo used the Mexicans for target practice. Finally the siege won and Santa Anna conquered the Alamo. (When Sam Houston attacked Santa Anna's army of 3,000 men and conquered it, the battle cry was, "Remember the Alamo." They remembered their brave heroes who died there including Jim Bowie)
