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)
