The Bowie knife is named after James "Jim" Bowie, a 19th-century American pioneer and folk hero who played a significant role in the early history of Texas. While Jim Bowie did not invent the knife itself, he became famous for his use of it in various duels and skirmishes. The knife he used, known as the Bowie knife, became an iconic weapon. The exact origins of the Bowie knife design are somewhat unclear, and it likely evolved over time. However, Jim Bowie's association with the knife and his use of it in the 1827 Sandbar Fight in Mississippi and the 1831 "Sandbar Duel" near Natchez, Mississippi, contributed to its notoriety. The typical characteristics of a Bowie knife include a large, fixed-blade with a clip point, a curved and double-edged blade, and a guard (crossguard) to protect the hand. Bowie knives were known for their versatility, serving as tools, weapons, and symbols of the American frontier. While Jim Bowie popularized the knife and became synonymous with it, he did not invent the knife style. Instead, he played a crucial role in its popularization and its association with the American frontier. The Bowie knife has since become a symbol of American history and craftsmanship.
It was made in the early 19th century (1830), by James Black
