Was original Bowie Knife made from meteorite?
No. The first knife famously associated with James Bowie (in the Sandbar Fight in the Mississippi) was designed by Bowie's brother Rezin and made from an old file by a blacksmith called Jesse Cleft. Bowie's brother John said that the knife used in that fight was one made for bowie by a blacksmith named Snowden. The most famous Bowie knife was one made for Bowie by James Black, from a wooden model made by Bowie himself. (Information from Wikipedia.) These were all steel knives (in fact it is said that James Black, who kept his technique hidden, had rediscovered the secret of Damascus steel). I can find no mention that any of the knives were made using the material from an iron meteorite, but it seems unlikely, as it would still have to go through the whole process of being converted into steel.
